The Good Samaritan who risked his own life to save a drunk filmmaker from an oncoming train at a Staten Island railroad in January has died from his head injuries.

Jonathan Parisen, a filmmaker who was the first to make a dramatized film about 9/11, still hasn't thanked the Good Samaritan currently clinging to life after helping rescue him from the Staten Island railroad tracks.

More details have emerged about the tragic incident at the New Dorp train station on Staten Island early Sunday morning.

A Staten Island Good Samaritan is in "extremely critical condition" after getting hit by a train while trying to rescue a drunk independent filmmaker who was down on the tracks looking for a lost shoe.
