What better place than "Non-Animated Movies…" to put this little gem. I wished I'd been there.

Wow.  I could never do that. I'm too fidgety.

That was pretty cool!  So does anyone know exactly how long everyone stayed motionless? Did each person have a predetermined time when they would start moving again? I noticed that not everyone started moving at the exact same time. It looks like they decided to start moving when that guy driving the cart called for security. How could passersby not know this was a stunt, when they could clearly see that someone was filming their reactions to all this?

In the beginning of the clip the guy instructing the pranksters told them to freeze for five minutes. During the freeze one of the on-lookers said it might be a protest or an acting class. That looks like something an acting class will do.

Wow that was awesome! I would love to do it that well sometime and freak some people out but I'd probably just laugh.

Here's another time-freeze, this time in Trafalgar Square. Obviously, this strike-a-pose routine is in vogue. (Sorry, couldn't resist). The NYC clip has the benefit of the overheard comments from the observers, but this one is still pretty good.
