NYC Is A Strange Place

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Talk about getting a spit shine.

The seemingly unending series of disgusting and reprehensible antics that’s been caught on tape in the New York City subway system recently has racked up yet another entry.

This time, a man with either the world’s worst foot fetish or in desperate need of a shoe shine is caught on tape vigorously licking his black shoe clean.

We’re not talking about a slight, “A Christmas Story”-like sticking of a tongue against something.

This is more like a tongue-lashing.

The foot-in-mouth incident was apparently taped on the 5 train Wednesday, May 11.

What’s going on the New York City subways lately? Is this business as usual or has it gotten worse? If you saw someone doing this on the subway, what would you do? Sound off in our comments section.

    of course no one around him cares.. it’s NYC! Have you ever been there?! If I had filmed every odd thing (ok i did film quite a good rant in central park) I saw I’d have quite a collection. People on subways mind their own business.

    now what in the world would posess that man to lick his shoe the way he did doesn,t he know there are like a million germs on the train that he could wound up getting a parasite in his mouth and then he,lll have to stay in the hospital or something?all he hand to do was carry around a cloth or rag to keep his shoes clean.

    • Kristyn Kelly

      Maybe it’s like some new way of getting high that hasn’t quite caught on yet.

  • Jacob

    I sure just wouldn’t just sit there staring. I would have left he car the moment he started. Who knows what crazy stunt he would’ve pulled next, and I’m not going to wait to find out!

  • duh

    He obviously is listening to Ludacris’ song “What’s Your Fantasy” and misunderstood the lyrics! He thought the line was I wanna li li li lick you from yo heel to yo toe!!

  • el marcone

    At least he cleaning something on the MTA subway. Many times the subway has sticky soda stains on the floor.

    • Oily Discharge

      Uh, that wasn’t soda. Sorry.

  • Brooklyn Subway Rider

    If cleanliness is really close to g0dliness, this man’s a saint! He’s cleaning his shoes like cats clean their paws.

  • Nancy Luna

    Only in New York….

    • Nancy Luna

      VERY GROSS!!!

  • Dale Auburn

    If the shoe fits, eat it. Of course, his breath will smell like feet.

    • Happy wife happy life

      One thing is for sure. He has a happy wife at home.

  • THEQUEEN

    Just more evidence that in the near future, our public behavior will be controlled by “Little Brother”, an Orwellian horde armed with hi-rez AV devices that will capture EVERY misdeed, misdemeanor, or other socially-unacceptable behavior you do!

    Future employers might be able to do a name search (more likely a facial-recognition program to pick you out of random video posts), then decide whether to hire you by what s/he sees! You won’t be safe outside your home as hi-rez phone cams and other devices (eReaders, tablets, etc.) become ubiquitous.

    Be very afraid.

  • Michael H.

    I wish I was his shoe!

    • william

      PEOPLE !!! This was a staged event. Everyone’s trying to be overnight sensations. Can’t you tell when he’s done, he stares right to the camera??? DUH!!!!!!

      • Heavy D., for the win.

        In America, we are trying to be overweight sensations.

  • abner

    Maybe you should go back to reporting about Tiger Woods or Lindsay Lohan or even the wedding

  • Dottie Gallardo

    wow.

  • floyd bannister

    ok. now i have seen it all

  • Justine Cross

    Poor bloke. It’s much better when you lick a Dominatrix’s heel clean and not your own shoe!

  • Get Smart

    The man wasn’t lick his shoes….he was talking into his shoe phone…..agent 86

    • Sigfreid

      I see English has got you licked.

      • KAOS

        He is trying to activate a shoe bomb.

  • Double-R

    Want to know why everyone around him isn’t making such a big spectacle of it? The same reason why this should even be a story on the news. Nobody gives a $h!t.

    Neeeeext!

    • Double-R

      Shouldn’t be***

  • DC on UWS

    I blame Justin Beiber

    • Wayne
