I was witness to a similar event in a German train station. They spent 12 hours setting things up from the ceiling. We saw them starting the setup and came back later. Eventually, when they had finished, they waited until one of the slower times in the station and did this thing where someone pretended to be a "real life" super hero, saving people from "villains" dropping from the ceiling. Real people just trying to catch a train all over the place as these actors got their Dark Knight on around them. Yes, some folks kinda freaked out at first...but they laughed later. I know the damn thing has to be on Youtube but I have never been able to find it.

Awesome in so many ways..but here in the US...someone would file a lawsuit about something or another. If I wanted to organize something like that..there is NO WAY I would do it in the states.

I'm sure the bystanders were actors just like the "random" people pressing the button.

Ahh yeah, I see a lot of them from the Just For Laughs "show". This was more like a performance ad.

I wonder if the people working in the area got sick of it after it ran 4 times... Also how'd they keep the area clear? Someone shoulda got smoked by those vehicles.

I thought you were talking about flash mobs until I watched the video.
You're wondering if "push a button and drama happens" is a fad overseas?

Blue keeps running these various "hidden camera" deals, where they try to surprise a person...and he's run so many that I'm surprised the folks over there aren't onto that kind of goofiness by now.

So are these things a fad overseas or something?
