The Man Who Captured The Subway Rat On Video

i think this is reAL B/C if i wake up iand i see a rat on my face iim running screaming and shaking it off

I was a little alarmed at the questioned posed " why didn't you try to catch or kill the rat" by the news caster interviewing the man that videoed the rat in the subway. One that is a very irresponsible not mention grotesquely cruel suggestion. Rats have diseases and will bite out of fear and self defense. To suggest that someone with no wild animal handling experience attempt such an act is ridiculously absurd and dangerous. People that are influenced by such suggestions could but themselves in extraordinary danger to disease and bodily harm. Secondly, to insinuate that killing the rat would have been even an option is grotesquely vial. How exactly would you have expected a man armed with a camera phone to kill a rat? By stomping it to death? Not an easy feat nor a humane method of ending a life. That would have been a mentally traumatizing event for everyone on board as well as a repulsive act of animal cruelty and violence. I think your question infers that such a reaction would have been a normal response. Because of your influence, I think you should choose your commentary with a little more caution. Lastly, we would not have a rat problem if everybody actually used the trashcans to dispose of the trash as oppose to the tracks. We have a rat problem because people are slobs. Not really fair to punish the rats with the death penalty for cleaning up after us.
As to whether the video is staged or not, the guy said it wasn't and believe although had he not chased him through the train, the rat would not have frantically out of fear ran through the car and up the man's leg. The rat would have hid and waited for an opportunity to escape. He didn't want to be there as much as the people didn't want him there.
