"Pulling a prank on essential workers in the middle of a global pandemic. And making essential workers clean up your mess. Despicable."



New York City officials have blasted a TikTok star with over 3.3 million followers as "despicable" after he pulled a messy prank on a subway car amid the coronavirus pandemic.

On Tuesday, prankster Josh Popkin uploaded two videos, which have since raked up over 3 million views each. In the first, he fills a plastic tub with Fruity Pebbles and milk and then pretends to accidentally spill the contents all over a subway car crowded with people wearing face masks.

"I accidentally dropped a whole tub of cereal on the subway today," Popkin says as passengers run away from the mess. "I was like, 'Oh my God, this is the worst day of my life! Not my Fruity Pebbles!' Everyone started moving away and filming me."

[Blue_true]

23. I was thinking that he was lucky someone didn't beat the shit out of him.

Some things are just stupid and unforgivable.

[BigmanPigman]

24. I wish they had!

Hopefully someone knows where he lives.....WHAM!

Everybody can be a star so to stay one, linking it up is the simplest solution.

Popkin was being represented by Dulcedo Management, whose website described him as a 23-year-old "up and coming stand-up comedian and content creator" with "a cult-like fanbase" made up of men and boys aged 13 to 25. His webpage on Dulcedo has since been pulled, and the company told Insider it no longer represents him.

12. Sometimes a punch in the mouth

is an entirely appropriate reaction.

[ornotna]

15. Yep

I was thinking a kick in the sack. Oops! My foot slipped.

[Codeine]

17. Nice testicles you've got there.

Be a shame if something happened to ‘em.

[JHB]

13. Nobody helped you clean it up? Gosh what a surprise!

Frankly, I think he should have been made to lick it up.

And then, after he's gotten every last drop, the floor can be steam-cleaned.


Send him a bill for the expenses, and put a lien on his earnings if he doesn't pay it.

[hatrack]

16. Great, another aspiring Logan Paul . . .

Just what the world needs right now.

[crickets]

18. What an absolute brat. nt

[SMC22307]

19. He should have been forced down on his hands and knees...

and made to clean that up. Make him pay for damages and throw his ass in jail for a while. I am so fucking sick of these man-boys and their stupid stunts.

[brettdale]

20. It reminds of that stunt that comedian Tom Greene pulled

Decades ago now, he was filming his tv show, and at closing time at a walmart
started to pull things off the shelves, all the while he was pissing himself laughing.

An elderly walmart worker, went up to him, saying something like "I know you have a show
to do, but I have to clean this up"

Tom Greene proceeded to laugh at the guy while pulling more stuff off shelves, laughing his
ass off.

He then stayed in the carpark filming this poor old man cleaning up.

His auidence loved it.

I guarantee 12-15 year old's are loving this tiktok star and cheering him on.

[AnnieBW]

21. Send him to Riker's

And have an inmate with COVID cough on him!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

22. How about a very large clean up bill with hazmat surcharges. This being a pandemic and all.

I figure $100,000 grand should do. Garnish his YouTube income if he doesn’t pay.
