Twins Andrew and Ashton Walker, known as @the.walker.twins, have racked up millions of views on their video showing one of them pour water on someone else's bare foot - which was resting on the TikToker's armrest - to fend them off.
It's not clear which identical twin is in the video, or whether the video was staged - the Walker brothers did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment - but the trick appears to have been effective.

In the video from Monday, the TikToker shows viewers the bare foot to the tune of "Into the Thick of It" from the TV show, "The Backyardigans," before panning back to his own face with a baffled look.
Then, the TikToker splashes some bottled water over the foot of the person sitting behind him. After feeling the drip, the passenger drops their foot from the armrest.
"Had to do something," the caption reads.
At the time of writing, the video had about 4.6 million views and nearly 500,000 likes. The Walker brothers, who are based in Canada, have over 245,000 followers, according to their TikTok page.
Incidents of outrageous passenger behavior on flights appear to be on the rise since the pandemic began.
Back in November 2020, a TikTok video uploaded by Janelle Elise Flom showed a passenger sticking gum in someone's hair after they repeatedly flick their strands over the screen of the person sitting behind them.
