The Online Community Cannot Believe Someone Could Be as Gross as This Plane Passenger Who Put Her Disgusting, Bare Feet on the Tray Table

A photo posted on Reddit’s Mildly Infuriating thread knocked the wind out of people’s sails. How couldn’t it when it shows a woman’s bare feet resting on a plane’s tray table?

OP (Original Poster) shared a photo of a woman’s bare feet resting on the plane’s tray table. He was sitting beside this woman, and he couldn’t believe how she acted!

He was disgusted and absolutely horrified by how his seatmate acted, so he snapped a photo and shared it with Redditors. It was absurd, and he couldn’t fathom how someone could do it.

OP didn’t tell his seatmate off, and he didn’t tell the flight attendants about it, either.

It seems he felt he couldn’t do anything about it because even if the flight attendants walked by the woman, they didn’t reprimand or ask her to sit properly.

Redditors’ Reactions

The online community is disgusted by what OP posted. The picture even sparked a debate, with people bringing up issues about people who recline their seat way too far or who a specific armrest belonged to!

Like OP, many Redditors couldn’t believe someone could do something like what his seatmate did!

One exclaimed, “People do this!?” Another replied, “That’s what I was going to say! I have never seen that! That is disgusting. What the hell is wrong with people?”

I’ve Never Seen Something Like This

Redditors who worked in the industry or have been flying for decades said they’ve never encountered something like this.

A 32-year-old Redditor shared, “My mom was a flight attendant, so I have been flying a s**t ton since I was a wee lad. I have never seen this. Tickle that foot!” A 27-year-old also said, “I’ve been on quite a few flights, both national and international—never seen this, neither thought I would see somebody doing this.”

Is This Fake?

The photo has blown the minds of many users, and some even question its authenticity because it’s so unnatural.

“Flown a lot. Never seen anything close to it. It could be staged for clout. If not staged, definitely inebriated,” one shared. Another replied, “I’ve literally never seen this. What kind of crappy flights is OP taking?”

Oh, It Happens!

Another Redditor with a similar experience shared another photo. This time, the image shows a man in the middle seat resting his foot on another person’s tray table.

“Why are there so many people doing this? What the f***,” one said. Another replied to the photo and said, “Seriously! I didn’t even know this was a thing. I’m horrified.”

More and more people share their own experiences about gross things happening on planes. So, whatever flight we get on moving forward, let’s remember one of the best pieces of advice from the thread.

A Redditor shared, “And this is why you take disinfectant wipes on a plane.”

With the many places I’ve been to, I found that love, inspiration, and happiness are some things that bring people together. No matter how different we are on the outside, I’m a true believer that our emotions don’t lie; if you dig deep into our psyche, we’re all the same inside.

This belief was further amplified when I joined Quote Ambition. Through the quotes I’ve read, collected, organized, and written about, I found that humans are resilient, creative, and compassionate.

We take from each others’ hearts and courage, and it’s through our individual experiences that we learn how to rise above our challenges and pain. In so many ways, Quote Ambition is a platform that allows people from all over the world to gain the inspiration they need anytime, anywhere!
