YouTuber Famous For Hugging Musk Shows How To Enter Bengaluru Metro Without Ticket, Receives Flak Online
The Cyprus based content creator enters and exits the metro station without a ticket with ease and being stopped by the security.
YouTuber Fidias Panayiotou, widely recognised for his humorous online content and for hugging billionaire Elon Musk earlier this year is receiving flak from social media users for entering the Bengaluru Metro without a ticket. A video shared online by the Cyprus based content creator shows him entering and exiting the metro station without a ticket with ease and being stopped by the security.
"How To Sneak Into The Indian Metro," reads the caption shared by Panayiotou on the microblogging site X, formerly Twitter.
The video opens to show the YouTuber asking people at the metro station whether they believe he can enter without paying to which the commuters reply in negative. However, Panayiotou jump over the barriers and enters the platform without a valid ticket or token. He then approaches the same commuters again who tell him that getting out of the station would be difficult. He proves them wrong by hopping over the ticket-checking counter without any guards present there.
