Stand Out by Standing Still - Frozen Grand Central Video

Selling next to millions of other eBay and Amazon sellers can get you lost in the crowd. Buyers ignore the mundane, same old thing, which requires constant reinvention to keep their attention.

In this video, over 200 people freeze in place on cue in Grand Central Station in New York. The "soon to be frozen" people were not even noticed when they moved along like everyone else. But when they did something different, the "moving" people closely examined them - even poking them. The amazing thing is that they got all this attention without intruding on anyone else. No yelling, or crazy outfits, they just stopped doing what everyone else was doing. Amazing. Could you do something different that would get the attention of shoppers?

It's funny that people are snapping photos. What will a still picture show?

This is one of over 70 different missions Improv Everywhere has executed over the past six years in New York City. Others include the No Pants Subway Ride, the Best Buy uniform prank, and the famous U2 Rooftop Hoax.
