Male stripper treats New York commuters to surprise subway routine – WATCH (NSFW)

By Fabio Crispim

A lot seems to happen on the New York City subway, doesn’t it?

The subterranean transport network for city that never sleeps has bore witness to transphobic tirades, anti-gay preachers, surprise performances by the cast of The Lion King, and even an appearance the elusive chanteuse herself, Mariah Carey.

But little did we know the best was yet to come.

While on the subway, a man decided to perform a random striptease and pole dance for the passengers and, luckily for us, it was all caught on camera.

He rips his trousers off  revealing a red, bird-shaped thong as he crawls along the floor of the train – to the apparent horror of a mother who tries to cover her small child’s eyes.

A video of the strip was recorded by Cosmopolitan’s deputy news editor, Alex Rees.

But there’s an apparent twist in this tale: According to Queerty, the man stripping on the train is actually a comedian called Mark Hudson, who was performing the striptease for an upcoming sketch.

Queerty reveals that there will be more footage of the striptease, so standby for the finished edit any day now.

In the meantime, we’ll just have to make do with this on a loop/
