This man was spotted on New York's subway wearing a hat which requested fellow commuters to wake him up before he reached his destination.

The technologically advanced hat had text scrolling across the front it which read: "Wake me up before I go go...past 34th Street."

John, who filmed this video, told Newsflare: "I look down and see this hat and say 'wow this is cool!'. I took out my camera and posted it to my story."

This footage was captured on Friday, April 19.
