The photo naturally received its due praise and karma, but as comments continued pouring in, it became evident that this was not the first time this guy had done this.
As the photo continued its ride on the upvote train, Redditors from the Philadelphia area and beyond became a unit of cracker jack private investigators. Each dug through their records to share their own experiences with "Cape Man".
This one was snapped by user rigma_one last 4th of July.

But even that'snot all. In proper Reddit fashion, things got increasingly involved and borderline obsessive.
TobagganFetish, who lives across the street, set up a livestream, as well as this edited timelapse that provides an insight on the surprising frequency with which this man visits the grate.
And finally, as is the case with all great viral photos posted on Reddit, Cape Man was posted to r/photoshopbattles, where he and his poofy clothes enjoyed being edited into such masterpieces as these.

Redditor cerulean11 commented within the thread, emphasizing the importance of respecting him and his privacy.
His dedication to personal comfort is one that has earned the internet's great respect and we wish him many more decades of standing on the subway grate.
