Black Tie Beach « Improv Everywhere - Flock (View it larger on YouTube) Produced by Charlie Todd and Matt Adams / music by Tyler Walker For our latest mission we had several hundred agents spend a day at Coney Island / Brighton Beach wearing black tie attire. We covered a mile-long stretch of beach with a diverse group of people of all ages (from babies to sixty-somethings) laying out, playing games, and swimming in the ocean, all in formal wear. Agents were instructed to find cheap tuxedos and ball gowns at thrift stores for the occasion.

Here’s a good “Where’s Waldo?” Precisely at 8:15 a.m. on a hot and sunny August 6, 1945, a B-29 Superfortress unleashed its atomic cargo on Hiroshima, leveling the city and killing 130,000 people.

My guide brought me to this totally unassuming elevator: Really, I have to show you this as I encountered it: WOW. Here’s a full panorama looking toward the rear of the elevator (that’s a railing beneath the mirror)… …and a reverse pan showing the front: Lining the ceiling are these great monster heads made out of mechanical bits… Each is poking through its own hole: More characters, including a king: Another character: The elevator is a last remnant from when the former Macy’s warehouse building catered to a more artsy clientele. Best of all, there’s a cool fish-eye mirror at one end, which makes it look like you’re leaning out of some parallel dimension: I’m a big fan of anything that makes my day a little more surreal, and this is the last thing I was expecting on the other side of those bland white elevator doors. Not sure if this hand is causing the accident or saving it…
