A video surfaced in recent days of a man reportedly in the business class section of a United Airlines flight who made others quite uncomfortable after shaving his head with an electric razor.

The man who shared the video, Derek Gregory, posted on Instagram: "I'm not sure whether to thank you for the feature or be embarrassed or that I was on the same plane as this person."

Two flight attendants who saw the man did nothing as they walked past him.

Some social media users felt the cabin crew should have done something.

One commenter posted: "Better still, they let him continue to do it. Instead of saying STOP THAT they ask if he wants a hot towel?"

In just three days, the video accumulated nearly 200,000 views.
