Flash Mob

Flash Mob: a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse. The organization of flash mobs is generally accepted as being limited to the social media or viral emails, rather than organized by public relations firms or for a stunt. Also flash mobs are not politically or commercially motivated as described by Bill Wasik’s in where he said, they serve no purpose (wikipedia)

Recently I’ve been very much entertained watching flash mob videos in YouTube after watching a T-mobile flash mob gig. Though technically, based on the flash mob definition, this is not a flash mob because it was a stunt for a T-mobile ad, but nonetheless it was very much entertaining. As the music progress you can see more and more people “joining” the dance

The following videos are certified flash mob videos, not a stunt for a TV commercial, and all of them conceptualized by Improv EveryWhere

In this video a group of 70 people “hijacked” the window display of a department store and started an animated display.

How would you react if suddenly all the passengers inside the MRT or LRT started to remove their pants?

This is probably the most challenging flash mob activity.

And lastly free musical show at the food court

Flash Mob in the Philippines

Tried to search for a flash mob event in the Philippines and found these videos for Wrangler and Greenwich. Technically these are not flash mobs since they were made as a gig for commercial establishments.
