FREEZE!

Here is a very short video of [livejournal.com profile] careswen and me doing the Improv Everywhere Freeze at the Bloomington, MN IKEA. That's us kissing right at the start. We held the pose for five minutes as shoppers passed us by.

The "About this Video" section at the YouTube site talks about how security at the Mall of America, (which was the original destination) cornered us and told us to leave before we could start. Go read it!





ETA: Here is a second, longer video. We are the "Kissing Couple."

It was surprisingly easy to keep straight. I think what really helped was that I could really see anything other than [livejournal.com profile] mmerriam, so fewer distractions. The funny thing from seeing the videos was realizing how closely people had passed by us -- I had had no idea! There was so much ambient noise, it was hard to tell what was going on around me.

Dinner would be awesome! Next week, Wednesday or Thursday would be okay for us. How about you guys?
