I don't think it's possible to train a hamster to sleep on you and what for?

Don't believe everything you see on youtube. Who knows how long it took to make those videos and how often the hamster's sleep was disturbed to get an exhausted hamster falling asleep on a human. Some videos may be genuine but others may be staged at the cost of the poor little hamster.

If a hamster wants to go to sleep on their human it may do so and some are extremely tame and friendly.
I have a dwarf who likes to sleep in my left shoe. She often wants out of her cage and most times runs around but at other times she heads straight for my shoe, climbs in and goes to sleep.
