New York City is a weird and wonderful place and you never can quite predict what you’re going to see when going about your day.
Never has that been more true than when an outrageous twerking party broke out on an NYC subway train, featuring girls in bikinis, a water slide and a paddling pool.
The unbelievable scene reportedly took place on one of the city’s L trains, with footage showing women in bikinis twerking, while others were sliding on a Slip ‘N Slide laid out across train the floor and drinking alcohol.
Confused commuters could be seen watching the spectacle and filming it with their phones. Viral footage of the incident was posted on Twitter by @Mike… From… Queens, where it has been viewed over 656,000 times.
The post also gathered more than 3,500 comments as people couldn’t quite believe what they were witnessing.
