TikToker Exacts Hilarious Revenge On Woman Who Put Her Bare Feet On Her Armrest On Flight

Passenger frustrated by another passenger's bare feet touching them

TikTok user @thewandertog found the chilly way to get her fellow flight passenger to remove her feet.

Any of us who travel somewhat regularly by public transportation have likely seen "some things" in our travels that rank anywhere from the hilarious to the awkward to the truly weird or creepy.

And lxamar, or @thewandertog on TikTok, has seen a lot in her frequent travels.


But one of her worst recent incidents had to involve a fellow passenger who kept violating her personal space with their bare feet on her armrest.

This occurred on a recent flight with American Airlines. While it's normal for some elbow brushing to happen between the tight seats, or even a bumped shoulder while navigating the narrow aisles, it's not so normal to experience skin-to-skin contact with a fellow passenger who's also a stranger.

But that was exactly what happened when the TikToker was poked in the arm, and when she turned to investigate, she saw a passenger behind her had propped their bare feet, complete with red painted toenails, on her armrest.

After getting poked repeatedly in the arm and feeling increasingly uncomfortable, the TikToker decided it was time to get a small dose of revenge and encourage the other passenger to stay inside their own personal bubble of space.

You can watch her TikTok video to see what happened:

Tell me YOUR weirdest flight story 🥲 #feet #americanairlines

In the video, the TikToker complained that the woman's foot had poked her repeatedly, so her solution was to extract a small piece of ice from her drink and let the chilled liquid do the rest.

The TikToker carefully slipped the piece of ice onto her armrest and caught on video as it slid under the other passenger's foot.

The camera quickly panned away, so the other passenger's reaction and likely jerking foot were not caught on camera.

The TikToker simply confirmed with an exasperated expression:

"It worked!"

While Fellow TikTokers thought the video was funny, there were some thoughts about the incident.

Some were simply grossed out by the other passenger's inconsideration and how this seems to be a recurring issue.

In the end, one TikToker made a very good point about this actually being an airline issue rather than a passenger issue, since passengers are simply not given enough space to be comfortable and as considerate of the people around them as they might like to be.

Room to be considerate or not, however, limited space doesn't force a person to be barefoot around strangers.

Scott Bessent Blasted Over His Bonkers Suggestion For How To Bring Your Own Inflation Rate Down

Continuing to follow the example of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Meet the Press Sunday to blame Democratic President Joe Biden for the financial downturn caused by Trump's tariff fiasco, then lied repeatedly about the state of the economy.

Meet the Press host Kristen Welker played a clip of MAGA Republican Vice President JD Vance telling a conservative audience at a Breitbart News event that Americans owe the Trump administration "a little bit of patience"—apparently while they figure out what tariffs are and how they work since they're rolling back more of them to lower consumer prices despite claiming Trump's tariffs don't affect consumer prices.
