To date, the TikTok has been viewed more than 128,000 times, with many viewers siding with the Paralympian.
One commenter wrote approvingly: ‘My biggest pet peeve! I just shout: excuse me and hit them with my bag when I take it off, hahaha.’
Another viewer exclaimed, “This is driving me crazy,” while one mused that a warning against the tactic “should be printed with a photo at every baggage carousel.”
One TikToker revealed that watching scenes like Hunter, filmed at the airport, always made her laugh “because it made me realize that most adults never actually grow up.”
“It really does look like kindergarten when they do that,” she added.
However, some viewers didn’t quite agree with Hunter.
One commenter said she “just didn’t care,” but another suggested people could be standing so close because of “vision issues.”
Another suggested that the crowding problem could be due to the fact that everyone’s luggage looks ‘exactly the same’ and people don’t want to accidentally grab the wrong bag.
An unenthusiastic viewer criticized Hunter for posting the clip.

Hunter and Tara — who first met when they were both in high school and married in October 2022 — left on their European tour in June.
Over the course of three months, they visited four countries and attended four matches.
In another TikTok, Hunter reveals how he had a new pair of leg sockets made while in Italy because they were much cheaper than in the US.
He said he paid “$6,100 in Italy versus $13,000 in the United States,” with his blades “costing another $15,000 in both countries.”
Hunter was born with fibular hemimelia and at age 11 both legs were amputated.
Fibular hemimelia is a birth defect that results in the partial or total absence of the fibula.
It is also associated with limb length discrepancy, foot deformities and knee deformities.
It is the most common form of lower limb deficiency present at birth and is estimated to occur in one in 40,000 births – with former Paralympic champion Oscar Pistorius having the condition.
Hunter was the first double amputee to receive a Division I athletic scholarship.
On his Instagram profile, he describes his career choice in the biography section, explaining: ‘They said I would never walk. So I learned to run.”
