This Video of New Yorkers Stuck on a Subway Will Restore Your Faith in Humanity

“I’m glad I was stuck with all you guys.”

A lot of videos people shoot in the New York City subway system are pretty grim. Riders regularly use their phones to capture fistfights, disgusting displays of personal hygiene management, blatant sexual harassment (I’m not going to link to those nasty dudes), and of course, rats. Lots and lots of rats.

The other day, however, a little miracle happened on an E train that got stuck in the tunnel, and straphanger Greg Wong captured it in a seven-minute video (seen on Gothamist) that just might restore your faith in humanity.
