The Internet Has Mixed Reactions to Viral Video of The ‘Hammock Guy’ on Public Bus
On today's episode of 'I Thought I Had Seen It All,' a man is arguing with a bus driver because he is hanging out in a hammock on the bus.
This is definitely one of the viral moments where it is hard to say if it's staged or not. Instead of wasting your time trying to figure out if the 'hammock guy' really thinks he's not doing anything wrong, just enjoy the fact that he really is in a hammock on a public city bus.
You can literally google the work hammock right now, and this video will come up immediately in the search. The video has 45 million views on Tiktok.
While some people online think its a skit, people who live in big cities like New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, say they wouldn't be surprised if this guy really was just trying to nap in his hammock on the bus.
The 'Hammock Guy' starts to spin, saying, "Show me the no hammock sign." You've got to give it to him on that one. Last time I checked, there were not any 'no hammock' signs on city buses. Safe to say that this incident may encourage public transportation drivers to install some just in case this hammock trend catches on.
This is one of those situations where they will most likely have to create an oddly specific rule like a 'No hammocks allowed on bus' rule just to prevent this one person from doing it.
We won't lie we definitely to get a few good laughs out of this viral video, but some people have opened the conversation on a deeper level of the increased homelessness issue in major cities. While we can't confirm of the man in the video is homeless or if this was just a skit, its interesting to see the different conversations that have sparked up online as a result of it.
It's safe to say that if you start seeing 'No Hammocks' signs on buses, this is the guy you need to discuss your aggravation with.
