A man has taken to social media to share the 'petty revenge' he got on a plane passenger who pressed her bare feet against his forearm during a flight from Boston to Los Angeles

A man has been praised for getting revenge on a "disgusting" plane passenger who rested her bare feet on his arm rest. The airline worker explained that he was travelling in economy from Boston to Los Angeles because there was no room for him in first or business class.

He says he "always tries to be respectful to everyone around him because he's a bigger guy", and expects other passengers to do the same. But his worst nightmare came true when he woke up from a nap to the feeling of a stranger's foot pressing against his forearm.

Taking to Reddit, he said: "So I get 24A, get to my seat, sit down, put my seat belt on and be quiet. About 20 minutes after take off, I am just waking up when I feel cold human skin under my left forearm. I look down and see disgusting dirty a*** toes with a heel on my arm rest. I nearly screamed, but I remembered I had a tube of mayonnaise from a sandwich I got in the terminal."

With that, the man rubbed the mayonnaise all over his fingers before grabbing the stranger's foot so hard he "felt his knuckles crack". The man added: "I heard screaming emitting from behind me 'He just put hand lotion on my foot'.

"Assuming it was her mother stood up and barked at me. I told her to teach her daughter manners and to wash her feet. They went to complain to the flight attendant who walked up and high fived me."

Commenting on his post, one user said: "This little piggy had roast beef and mayo and that little piggy went wah wah wah all the way home. Well played, water cannon salute to you!" Another user added: "I'm not touching a stranger's toes. I'm screaming as if the boogie man is going to get me and hailing a flight attendant."

A third user said: "I have the ability to force a sneeze at any time. Their feet won’t be back!" One more user added: "I had this happen once and just asked for some ice water and slowly trickled it on their foot until they freaked out. When he confronted me, I told him I was out of water so next time it would be warmer. Didn't see the foot again."
