The video gained 3.3 million views and sparked a raging debate over whether it's acceptable to take up too much space on a plane.

One person said: He shouldn’t intrude on your space, but otherwise, as a person with too long legs, I feel him. Planes give me knee pain every time. 

A second wrote: Wenn man in der Mitte sitzt und links und rechts Männer die beide ihre Beine so „spreizen“ ist das schon bisschen unangenehm, aber kann’s verstehen.

While a third commented: Imagine falling asleep like that and being woken up by the trolley crashing into your leg

Someone else added: Does anyone think about the flight attendants with their little snack/juice trolley? like they probably won't see his leg and fall in the worst-case
