Grand Central Station - New York prank

This is more than just a little weird:

I couldn’t help thinking of a station filled with Preiser and WS folks, with a few “animated” ones running around.

I’m not real big on performance art, but that was pretty cool![(-D] I wonder if they’re gonna get billed for all the police that were probably called??

That was fun to watch…loved it…John

Hahaha! Loved the part where someone poked one on the people to see if they were real![(-D]

I really liked it. Different…but in a non-abnormal way.

It’s nice when these sorts of pranks are “brain-teasers” instead of the more common “shock” type pranks that are usually graphic or inappropriate in some manner.

This appealed to my more cerebral side.

So much performance art is is dedicated to offending the viewer, instead of intriguing or enlightening. This was intriguing, particularly the way the participants (no doubt aspiring actors) held their poses perfectly. [8D]

Yeah! I’d probably crack up and ruin it![:-^]

Your remark brought to mind something I saw many years ago. Someone pulled together out-takes/goofs/behind the scenes shots of older western style movies. The big finale to this show was an outake from a John Wayne movie (I can’t remember the title) in which he was the commanding officer of a large calvary unit fighting off hundreds of indians. the last scene in the movie showed John wayne and the great indian warrior as the last ones standing. just before they do the final fight to the death they look around and veiw hundreds of dead bodies …laying around them… in silence…until one of the “dead bodies” experienced the effects of the baked beans from the movie set catering tent from earlier that day. With in seconds all the “dead” were laughing hysterically.

[#ditto] to all of the above - great to have so many people wondering what the heck is going on !!

You have just entered…

Only in New Yawk

Brilliant!

Very, very cool concept. [(-D] I wonder how many people that totally confused ? Incredible to see the reaction caused by a bunch of people doing absolutely NOTHING !

Cheers,

When you think about it, it’s New York. I’m surprised anybody noticed…[:D]

The same group, only not so many people, showed up at the Today show a few days ago. The same organizer had 40 or 50 people “frozen” on the NBC plaza.

Thats hilarius! (I think I spelled that wrong sorry)

easy to explain , the ones who reacted were arriving from elsewhere or departing after a visit

[:D]

Joisey folks…[:-^]
