Passenger uses toes to operate in-flight entertainment. Video divides Twitter

While some on Twitter have expressed their disgust over the man’s actions, some have posted that they aren’t quite as offended.

You may have seen or read several stories about passengers who remove their shoes during long-haul flights.

Most of the times, such tales evoke anger and disgust among netizens. However, a recent post about a barefooted passenger has evoked mixed reactions among tweeple.
