In the words of the great Billy Shakes, “Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them.” I’m not sure which category this everyday hero falls into, but he definitely deserves a seat in the pantheon of the greats.
British DJ Artwork was taking a five hour train ride from Glasgow to Sheffield, and once aboard realized that he had made a grievous error: his train did not have a bar car, and he had not brought sufficient snacks to survive the journey. Naturally, he took his plight to Twitter.

However, DJ Artwork hatched a plan so brilliant that it just had to work. He would tempt fate and order a pizza to be delivered at a subsequent train stop. There were many factors working against him, and yet he was undeterred.

However, all of the stress and worry was worth it, as the trusty pizza delivery team from Dominos came through in a pinch. They’re the true heroes here.

After his train ride reached new levels of awesome, Artwork of course decided to tempt fate a second time, to similar success.

So, will this inspire you to take similar action the next time you find yourself snackless on a train? Will this be a new travel trend, or will pizza emporiums put their feet down in protest?
