Video: King Willem-Alexander travels on Amsterdam subway

Travelers on Amsterdam's subway were caught of guard by Dutch King Willem-Alexander getting on the train and traveling with them like a normal person. The King and Mayor Eberhard van der Laan were on the train for the King's working visit to Amsterdam, RTV Noord-Holland reports. Video footage shows that some passengers did not seem to recognize him, or were playing it very cool. Though this did not seem to upset the King. He can be seen laughing after a comment from Amsterdam's mayor.
