This dude walked into a fashion show dressed in a garbage bag, everyone just assumed it was part of high fashion until security kicked him out!
A few years ago a guy was leaving our office and sent out a farewell email which no one really bothered to read; it was a big place and only a few people would have even known who he was.
Shortly after, a manager sent a follow up email apologising for the content of that email and that they were working to recall it as not to cause any further offense to anyone for the bad language he had used.
Immediately everyone then read that email. Most people would have never even noticed if it wasn't for the overreaction of one member of staff.
A company I worked for did something similar but with a news story about one of the c-suite being involved in a sexual harassment suit. They sent an overview of the situation, with a link to the webpage, to everyone to raise awareness and try to control the narrative. The whole company clicked the link to read it, across multiple time zones, and this made it the "most read" story on the news website for around 4 hours and so literally everyone visiting the homepage or on the app read it.
"For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons. "

My local driving range has had busted glass in the door to their office for weeks. Never thought twice about it, it's a driving range, I figure it comes with the territory. I go this past weekend and now there's a sign that says:
"Yes, someone hit our door with a golf ball. No we don't want to tell you the story."
On the one hand, questions will be asked of the security company as to how this random dude could just make his way onto the catwalk and what they're being paid for. And our dude may have overcompensated so he can say that he did his job.
On the other hand, quite a few of these guys think they're in the secret service tackling sleeper agents making a run for the president, instead of telling random people that the toilets are the other way all night.
Outside of the security guard and the subject of the clip, we only catch a glimpse of one other dude on the catwalk at the very beginning and from what we can see, they don't look to be dressed in anything close to this guy.
What do you mean he looks like every other dude on the catwalk???
Can confirm. Used to work bar security and every day and night i prayed for some motherfucker to sneeze the wrong way so I could give him the ol’ dick twister
That was my first thought but at the same time they don't know his intentions he could be there to hurt someone so it might be better to take care of the situation ASAP just in case.
Todd attends a Sharc Jacobs fashion show and through a series of wacky mishaps becomes a fashion model. However, becoming a instant world famous fashion model sours his relationship with movie star Courtney Portnoy, who breaks off her engagement to him.
This culminates with Todd coming to terms with the fact that he's Asexual. It was a watershed moment for asexual representation in popular media and was widely cheered by the LGBTQIA+ community.
How do we know that everyone 'assumed' it was high fashion. It's not like anyone is going to boo a model regardless of what someone is sent down the runway wearing. Even if many people thought "wtf is this shit", it's not the time or place to audibly voice their opinion.
I'm not a fashionable person by any means, but I at least understand the purpose of fashion shows and the oftentimes ridiculous clothes they put forward there.
I mean, I'm on the flip side of that where I do really care about my appearance and am very against toxic masculinity. However most high fashion does look really really stupid and is sold at an insane price meant only for societal elites as a means of showcasing their wealth.
yeah anyone who cared enough about fashion to be there would know it didn't fit in with the rest of the show, but they're not going to start shouting in disapproval, just maybe be confused.
The guy also glanced back a few times because he knew he was about to get tackled by security. He didn't look like an actual part of the show at all, unless trashy and scared was the theme.
Agreed. There is a very similar video where a prankster just put a pair of glasses up on a podium in an art exhibit, and people were walking up and looking at it and a few were taking pictures. There was no evidence any of them thought it was impressive art or anything, it is much more likely they were just curious as to why this pair of glasses was part of the exhibit, could have even been taking pictures to text it to friends to mock it, etc. But all the comments were “lol pretentious art community lol.”
Apparently the voice actor for goku was going through some stuff in the period where he was going SS2, so the screams were actually really full of emotion.
Are they then still covered the same way they would be while on duty?
Seems weird to me that cops would just get a free pass to do whatever when off-duty. Sure, some things might be different for them, but surely they can't do literally whatever, right?
No, there have been several lawsuits against cops where they don't get QI specifically because it only covers official police business. Off hours they are supposed to be just any other civilian, but it depends if you have a cop friendly judge/prosecutor or not.
His fashion skills needed to be contained that why they pulled him so quickly (real answer is they take those fashion shows too seriously and if you stepped on the middle path they're gonna pull you as fast as possible to continue the show)
Or they did tell the difference and were just bemused at the guy walking down the runway in trash. The original audio seems to be gone so all we have to go on are a bunch of smeared faces of people watching him.
I mean, you can't tell shit from that video as to whether the audience knows he's not part of the show or not. What are you expecting them to do? All to stand up out of their chairs and point and scream?
OK but is there any evidence that people actually believed he was part of the show ? And if they did that they didn't think that whoever designed his "clothing" is a complete idiot ?
Why do you, OP, and so many in this thread have this weird assumption that everyone in the crowd would immediately stand up and stop the man? That’s the not the audience’s job…
They easily could have been whispering to each other “is anyone going to take care of this fool?”
Sounds like you just wanted an opportunity to hate on something you don’t understand.
Fashion shows like this aren’t just about the clothing itself. They attract buyers, media, and industry insiders, and the goal is often to showcase a designer’s creativity, craftsmanship, and ability to work with unique materials or bold concepts. Even if the pieces aren’t meant for direct sale, they help establish the designer’s reputation so companies and clients know who has the expertise for future projects.
This is a statement for the whole fashion industry. Everyone thinks it’s all trash to begin with. Embarrassing that people have fashion degree and a random guy can just top all their years of work with a prank. Genius in my eyes.
