A CRAZED commuter unleashed chaos on a packed train when she released a tub of live CRICKETS.

Meanwhile, a few courageous passengers tried to hold the woman down – who was, by this time, urinating, yelling and attempting to throw up on them, witnesses told the Post.

Mass hysteria quickly ensued as she tossed the container of bugs into the air, leaving commuters running to one end of the vehicle while screaming and crying, according to the New York Post.

The woman was selling both crickets and worms, apparently, and a passenger hit her. Anyway, this pitch flops, and then a bunch of teenagers – because of course its teenagers – pushe her, leading the small businesswoman to dump the box full of crickets and worms in the vehicle, I don’t know, maybe to demonstrate the vitality of the stock. Do you see what you did? “Now everybody’s late because of you”.

John said: “She threw the crickets everywhere and 100 people were trying to run”. That may very well be the case, but barring any sort of insane statistical anomaly, it’s a safe bet that most people on that train weren’t at all qualified to assist someone having a mental breakdown who had urinated on themselves. To make matters worse, the train’s air conditioning was also shut off.

‘She was freaking out because she couldn’t breathe because she was in such a state and there was no air’. That’s when someone reportedly pulled an emergency cord, stopping the train and leaving passengers and bugs stuck between two stations for about half an hour.

Someone pulled the emergency brake causing the train to stall for 15 minutes as crickets flew around the busy carriage and worms wriggled on the floor.

Passengers moved to the other end of the subway vehicle.

How can she walk? .

Pugh, who says she’s 21-years-old, told us that the video was meant to be a performance art piece about the treatment of homeless people: “The point of the video was to show how people react to homeless people, how people look down at them”, she said, adding that she’s been performing similar video stunts for the last four years.

‘Mass hysteria in a locked, enclosed space is something else’.

“It was pandemonium”, said Chris Calabrese, 29, who was on board with his girlfriend. My girlfriend was crying.
