In High School my idea of rebellion was throwing eggs at my neigbour’s impeccably maintained house. Meanwhile kids in South Africa are testing their mortality, fighting boredom and raising a big middle finger to the law by “surfing” trains for kicks. Fuck, I haven’t lived a day in my life…
From the Gavin McInnes fronted Street Boners and TV Carnage:
Sanza Hanza means ‘King Surfer’ and it’s the name South African kids give to a train surfer who outdoes everyone else. I went down to meet them all with my friends Matt Salacuse and Nadia Hallgren to take pictures for Street Carnage’s first book, a photozine called Sanza Hanza that features three of the top train surfers down there: Tupac, Batista, and Seven. They are members of a train surfing gang called V.I.R.U.S. (Very Intelligent Riders Usually Survive).
