So all the usual sheep seem to be doing something that involves standing still. Because everyone else is.

Is that it or am I missing something?

Please tell me there's more to it than that! biggrin

Hilary Clinton did it with her staff and husband on her flight back to New York after the final day of campaigning. Oh how they laughed. It was excruciatingly contrived and summed up her disconnect with what was about to happen.

It is quite pleasing that whilst their loser wannabe can pose for a pboto, our Corbyn has been frozen in the same ridiculous position since the 60s.

I have seen one good one - which was in a gymnastics gym.

Some of the positions they held themselves in perfectly still were amazing.


For the most part they are nonsense though

Sussex Police, Fire and Ambulance are doing theirs together, all of them stood still around a mocked up car crash where someone has been texting at the wheel.

Effective I think

The gym and gymnastics ones are the most impressive, especially when they're doing body weight exercises without moving!

Soldiers and trained dogs have been doing this crap for years.

The only positive I can see in this is it gets people to STFU.

The girls in the gym though. In the lycra.... not like the girls in the gym where I go...

Seen one that purported to be Victoria secret models in their undies. It was ok I guess.

We did one at work. It was a laugh.

If I had known it would irritate PH killjoy types I would have appreciated it even more.
