It is not known which route he intended to take as there are no direct flights from the airport to New York, although the man told officers that is where he wanted to go.
An representative of the State Border Service of Ukraine said: ‘The man got to the line of the passport control and decided to bypass it when it was his turn.
‘He squatted down, the inventive man managed to slip between the booths, which are used by border control employees.’
The man did not have any official documents with him and had only 35p in his wallet.
Police are investigating the incident.
The bizarre event sparked jokes across social media as viewers questioned the man’s plan.
One viewer ‘Ell Gorr’ joked: ‘This one time his invisibility did not work.’
Another viewer ‘Tvoya Familia’ added: ‘I wonder if he would stand while flying if the plane was full of passengers. As if he was in a tram?!’
