Woman Praised After Stepping In To Save Woman From 'Creepy' Stranger Asking About Her Toes

Woman Praised After Stepping In To Save Woman From 'Creepy' Stranger Asking About Her Toes

If you see something, say something, as the adage goes, and one young woman on TikTok is being praised for doing just that.

The TikToker, who goes by the name pikanab, has gone viral after posting a video in which she saved a woman from a deeply creepy stranger who was asking her about her toes.


Pikanab spied the woman from across the street and quickly intervened.

@pikanab I WAS SO SCARED. THIS IS WHY GIRL NEED TO STICK TOGETHER. Has anything ever happened like this before to u?##fyp ##fypage ##pov ##schoolpov ##honab

As Pikanab described in her video, she was initially unsure whether to intervene.

But given how late it was at night, and the fact that the woman looked "really uncomfortable," Pikanab talked herself into going over and seeing what was up.

As she put it in the video:

"OK, I'm from New York, girls supporting girls. I'm just going to go up to her."

When she got to the woman, she executed a perfect ruse.

She pretended like the woman was her good friend, and that she'd been waiting for her in the car. Pikanab then strikes up a conversation with the man who was talking to the woman, asking in a friendly manner who he was and what they were talking about.

His answer should send a chill down even the steeliest of spines:

"Nothing. Just asking her if her … toes are long."

The creep factor on pikanab's face was palpable.

She then repeated that they have to go, as if they were late for an engagement, and the two women ran off together. Pikanab asked if she needed a ride as they went, and the woman sheepishly said "Yes, please," her voice audibly afraid.

On TikTok, people praised pikanab for having the courage to intervene.

George Santos Just Threatened To Flee NYC Due To Zohran Mamdani—And The Internet Pounced

Disgraced former New York Republican Representative George Santos was widely mocked after he announced he may leave New York City over fears it will become "dangerous" if Zohran Mamdani—a democratic socialist—is elected mayor.

Mamdani handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary in June, sparking racist and Islamophobic backlash from right-wingers who've claimed his policies would "destroy" the city. The latest polls show Mamdani has a double-digit lead over Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who is facing calls to drop out.
