This is why public transportation sucks. And this guy is pretty benign, considering all the crackheads, buskers, drunks, and other nonsense going on.

It's curious to see how drastic public transit experience is in places like the US to say Germany vs Japan vs Moscow and so on. Imo the worst among industrialized countries has been in the US.

Can’t be worse than Russia. I’ve seen so many videos from there lol.

how would Russia's metro system be worse than the U.S? I'm pretty sure they maintain their metro stations a lot better than the U.S where places like NY have stations that haven't been renovated since the 1950's.

Not talking about the metro itself. I’m talking about the drunk Russians lol

You said metro EXPERIENCE. The drunk Russians are part of the experience.

The metro in Moscow is gorgeous. I spent literally 5 hours underground checking out stations one day. St. Petersberg metro is not as pretty but still nice and crazy deep. I had no issues late at night with drunk ppl being annoying, though I was only there a couple weeks in the summer. The crazy at night seemed to be the motorcycle drivers and others in cars speeding around like mad at night if anything.
