Commuters did the most bizarre thing on public transport this morning

That's one way to start the day.

What started on the New York subway has now spread worldwide, as people across the globe went without trousers on this morning’s commute. Yes, the 10^th annual No Pants Subway Ride took place this morning in New York and more cities than ever across the globe joined in on the action.

The movement was started by NYC’s own Improv Everywhere and has been embarrassed by cities including London, Berlin and Brasil. The movement is intended to add a bit of fun to the normally soul-crushing trip to work as passengers have to try and keep a straight face while going without their bottoms. People took to Twitter to share pictures of their pantless commutes with the hashtag #NoPantsSubwayRide.
