The window seat on city buses has its perks.
A mundane commute last Sunday night turned into an adventure when a man tried to climb out the window of a moving bus, as seen in this viral TikTok video.
The bus finally stopped and the disgusted and angry Samaritans let the man drop into the street.TikTokThe unhinged commuter apparently missed his stop, according to the footage filmed by popular online entertainer Zeeshan Saroya (@princezee), setting off a wild scramble as fellow passengers grabbed him and tried to dissuade him jumping as the bus continued to barrel along.
But the good Samaritan scene soon turned ugly when the jumper tried to bite a hand holding him back and spit at a would-be rescuer.
The bus finally stopped and the disgusted and angry Samaritans let him drop into the street, as he glared back at them.
Saroya told The Post the insanity unfolded on an M60 bus around 125th Street in Harlem. The man entered the bus without a mask and ignored the bus driver’s request to put one on. Then he went haywire when the bus missed his stop.

An MTA spokesperson said “dumb stunts are dangerous, disruptive to riders trying to get to destinations on time” and people should not attempt them.
