What is it about stunts and pranks that cause such a large following online? That’s what I investigate in today’s Pop17.
I pulled a stunt where I dressed up as Optimus Prime from Transformers and tried to order from McDonald’s for Gizmodo in San Francisco.
The Tokyo Dance Trooper pulled his stunt once and it grew to be an overnight hit. So he did it again and again.
Improv everywhere is the best example of a group of people who have performed stunts over and over. They are most well known for their frozen grand central video. The Best Buy and mobile desktop videos are some of my personal favorites.
Generate, who raised 6 million last week, has signed Improv Everywhere.
