Footage of a man queuing quietly with passengers at an airport check-in desk has gone viral – mainly because, although the other passengers are dressed warmly, the man is stark naked.

The naked man acts as if everything is perfectly normal. Other passengers play it cool too. A woman in front of him in the queue casts a couple of concerned glances. A woman behind him can be seen smiling widely, obviously finding it amusing.

The incident took place at Moscow’s Domodedovo Airport.

Russia Today’s RT.com said passengers were lining up near the jet bridge to board a plane for the city of Simferopol in Crimea.

“But one man clearly stood out,” the site said.

Pixellated footage shows the man covering his private parts and calmly waiting his turn as others pass through the final check. It is unclear what the man had in mind. Reports say he told those who would listen that wearing clothes made him less agile and aerodynamic.

The man crosses himself several times as the queue moves forward.

Just another airport queue – except the man at the back is naked

Britain’s Independent site quoted a spokesperson for Russia’s Interior Ministry saying the offender is a native of Yakutsk but lives in the Moscow region.

The man was last seen sitting on the floor, still naked and surrounded by police officers. He was reportedly taken away for psychiatric evaluation.
