Descriptions of graffiti and street art injuries and deaths

[edit]

There were six people who died creating graffiti on train carriages in New South Wales by 1988.[1] Nine people were seriously injured or died creating graffiti on railway property in New South Wales in the 18 months prior to December 2001.[1]

Melbourne, Australia, 2020

In July 1988 in the London Underground there were people who had received "... electric shocks and burns crossing the 600-volt rails to tag a wall."[2] In June 2008 in Los Angeles there had been "...taggers getting injured once every couple of months from falls or being 'clipped by a car'.".[3]

When people have taken photos of newly created graffiti there have been accidents where deaths have occurred.[4][5] In the United States in 1993 a 23-year-old person was on train tracks with a group of people and it is thought that they had spray painted graffiti on the side of a freight carriage. The 23 year-old was taking photos of the graffiti when the sound of an approaching train was heard. The 23 year-old began to move across the train tracks and a collision occurred with the train and they died.[4]

In Russia in 2020 a 22-year-old had created graffiti at a train station and they climbed up onto a train carriage to take a photo of the graffiti they had completed and they received an electric shock and died.[5][6]
