Noones claiming this versions better, Grand Central was amazing and your right, so natural. But i dont get the impression that that was the point with this. It was a great social moment and a chance for complete strangers from a great city to get in and all be part of something a little different and a little special and alot of fun.

I mean, I gotta agree wit tutilum here. u guys should came up wit an original idea of a prank.
i dont wanna b mean, but it didnt really work, this doesnt seem natural, looks like its been organized plus u guys just kinda squeezed in 2gether, while d original prank from improveverywhere in grand central station, looked really natural, they were all scattered all over d place, and other people at that time, really had no idea what was goin on. also, d cheering up at d end, its a BIG NO NO, guys.
and you have to consider station size and amount of people before saying "omg dey're just squeezed together and no natural looking!!1"
And they're probably cheering because they all shared 5 minutes with a bunch of complete strangers, something the world has forgotten, seeing it's not longe ropen to meeting new people, and trusting people, etc, they'd be cheering everyone on for such a good job
u can call it whatever u want, a prank, an artistic show, whatever.. i just think that the one at grand central station was way better, but there's nothing bad with following it.
so just relax, man.
and if u want to make a great show where people would just say nice things bout it, why don't u come up with an original new idea for a so called 'an artistic show'..
so lame. we need to stop copying people and other countries and come up with our own creative ideas.
the reason this worked so well at grand central in the states was because it was an artistic few, making a statement. plus people who took part actually stood still completey, without looking around, it looked like time had stood still.
melbournes lame attempt at copying was just an unoriginal joke.
this reminds me of a similar stunt done in new yorks grand central station........... except that one seemed to serve and amaze the general public as an artistic stunt - this seems to serve the people participating in it
I was walking around with a guitar if anyone saw me. Awesome stuff, didnt even know it was happening, walked in and wondered why there were so many people then bam! Everything stopped.
SUCH A FANTASTIC VID. You seriously know what your doing with that camera. Seriously campain material. awsome. only prob is you didn't get me on cam. ahah

I doubt it was a prank,
probably more of an artistic show?
and you have to consider station size and amount of people before saying "omg dey're just squeezed together and no natural looking!!1"
