The man who caught fire on top of a New York-bound train on Sunday has died.

Authorities say Brian McClellen was badly burned after he climbed on top of the Metro-North train in Greenwich.

Ryan Colby, an agent for McClellen, says the 21-year-old model and actor died from his injuries Monday morning.

The incident happened at around 5 a.m. at the Riverside station.

Officials say crews went to check on a power outage and found McClellen on fire on top of the train.

Colby says McClellan was in Connecticut working a side job for a catering company. He says McClellan was a bit of a daredevil and was known for doing an acrobatic exercise known as parkour. However, Colby says climbing a train would have been out of character for the fledgling actor.

Colby says McClellan just got several big breaks--one of which included shooting a new TV show with Hilary Duff.

Metro-North officials say they are still looking into exactly how McClellan got on top of the train and why.
