The Great Trafalgar Square Freeze

submitted by Zifnab

1 decade 6 years 3 months 1 week ago

The day London froze. Inspired by improv everywhere and made a reality by 100's of volunteers. At exactly 3:30pm on a secret cue, almost everyone in the square froze. The few bewildered tourists didn't know what was happening. For 5 minutes the participants held their positions, and then magically everyone unfroze. (From YouTube)

I was thinking that. But on the other hand, the sheer size of the flashmob is all the more impressive.
