The latest victim of an embarrassing viral video was a man hoping to hurdle the turnstile at White Hart Lane tube station
A train fare dodger was stopped in his tracks after he faceplanted over ticket barriers at a London Underground station. In the digital age no-one is safe from the watching eyes of social media.
The latest victim of an embarrassing viral video was a man hoping to hurdle the turnstile at White Hart Lane tube station. The TikTok, which has accrued almost 46k views sees the person take a long up to the barrier before executing a momentum jump up to the wide-aisle gates.
But when he planted his hands on the metal, it appears the movement of the doors threw the man off and he toppled to the ground head first. His legs followed and he landed on the ground while passers by and the camera man burst out into fits of laughter.
The alarm began ringing but the fare dodger appeared to dust himself off and quickly sprung to his feet and ran off. The comment section did not hold back and continued to poke fun at the individual.
One person wrote: “Bro has terrible form, no hopes no physical attributes. Skill issue.” Another added: “Just push it why you gotta be extra.” A third said: “He deserves to pay for that.”
