It's rush hour and your main concern when boarding a tram in the city centre is finding a seat, right?
Not for some commuters who boarded a tram heading towards Eccles on Monday evening.
Passengers were left slightly distracted from their normal Metrolink routine by a certain reptile.
In fairness, the gigantic lizard hadn't taken up a precious seat, and was instead comfortably perched on the head of its presumed owner.
It did seem to alarm a number of passengers who were said to have 'leapt out of their seats' after spotting the animal, though.
Passenger Russ Booth tweeted: "Just a bloke with a live lizard on his head on the Metrolink .
"Welcome to Manchester."
Speaking to the M.E.N , he said: "It was around 5.54pm and I noticed a bit of commotion around me.
"A group of girls leapt out of their seats and were hiding near the doors."
"There were loads of people taking pictures and laughing but the guy seemed totally oblivious.
"Nobody seems overly concerned."
