No trousers on the Tube .
On Sunday 9th January 2011 there was a flash mob event that was organised on Facebook which took place between 15.00 and 18.00 in London. It was called the No Trousers Underground/Tube Ride (No Pants Subway Ride) 2011: London and was part of a global campaign by the group Improv Everywhere , which causes scenes of chaos and joy in public places.
It was something different and the numbers taking part have grown over the years. As our lives are more and more governed by petty restrictions that are put upon us, it is good that these events take place. Enjoy the video below as other passengers wonder just what is going on. The flash mob were instructed not to appear to know anyone and to keep a straight face. It is good that people can still stand up and be counted in a city where the police have been very rough with protesters recently.
