Flashmob at Beirut Duty Free

[onela]

I picked this up from the Livejounal Bellydancing community. I am also too thick to figure out how to embed? If somebody can help me out it'd be much appreciated!

If you look at the URL of a video you will see some gobbledegook numbers& letters like this VEp29GS1VXI ( the above vids lot) just copy & paste that string between the youtube tags. Sorry to hear you are unwell, hope you feel better soon.

Haha, awesome! How confusing and amazing would that be? I think things like this should happen EVERYWHERE.

One of my favourite flash mobs is Alex Velea.

 

[Shanazel]

Ha! What fun! I want to be part of a flash mob.

I wish my knees still functioned like those in the first video. One leap and descend and I'd need all those strong young men to haul me back to my feet.

This is my all time favorite: YouTube - Christmas Food Court Flash Mob, Hallelujah Chorus - Must See!

Yes, if you go to see it on You Tube (not as an embed) you can read the comments. They say with clarity that it was a publicity stunt by the airport in order to (paraphrasing since I don't have the window open) show people another view of the middle east. (i.e. not all violence and protests -- can be fun). You will see a sign that reads "take back more" which is the slogan of the campaign.

Staged or not, it is a great video and is fun to watch, and was probably fun to see in person!

Hmmm, reminds me I still need to learn a proper debke!

Yeah, staff at our airport here in Halifax staged a Flashmob last year to raise awareness for breast cancer.
