"When your subway car gets turned into the Rainforest Café. Welcome to NYC," the Twitter user wrote.

A Metropolitan Transit Authority representative who viewed the video told WABC-TV that the man's behavior "is not allowed."

The representative said it is against MTA rules to block doorways or impede the movement of other commuters.
