The Great Trafalgar Square Freeze

The day London froze. Inspired by http://www.ImprovEverywhere.com 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.

Why? Well, why not.

Just goes to show - hundreds of people, coming together to create something magical, something out of the ordinary, to take your breath away.

Next time you are disgusted by the terrible things some people do, just watch vids like these and remember - human beings are awesome : )

If anyone still likes this and is interested, we should get a massive group and do a sort of wave freeze, where people start to freeze and others run away but end up freezing aswell. Just want to see how many pedestrians actually run away! In London by the way.

As long as it's not in an alcohol free zone. We're a lot less stricter in the UK compared to America.
