I saw this earlier tonight so I'd thought I'd share it here.

What are these “things“? Are they people wearing some sort of masks?

I want one of those masks! That would probably take some time to put on but it looks pretty freaky.

Now how do they breath with those on? Probably small holes but I can't imagine it's that easy.

The article raises the idea that these are really celebrities sick of having their pictures taken.

If so does anybody have any ideas who they could be?

And what is that emblem on their shirts?

Theories include the possibilities that they are limelight-seeking pranksters, performance artists or that they are at the centre of a viral marketing campaign for an as-yet unknown product of forthcoming horror film.
I think the horror film viral marketing campaign makes the most sense...

I'd see it.

lol, looks like the Question

It probably looks less impressive in person. The people around them seem to be pretty cool about it. I'm not sure these are people who are running away from attention. It's the opposite. Some kind of publicity stunt - for what, I have no clue.

Agreed. Definitely a publicity stunt.

It might be for a new movie.

Himeko: I can change a tire.
Himeko: Oh yeah. So my dad took the flat into this tire place
Himeko: And they tried to see why it went flat
Jeanie: awesome
Jeanie: that you can change it
Jeanie: ya big dyke

That would be freaky seeing that if I was just scrolling down the street one day.

LoL at the second picture of the lady turned around staring at them while the rest of the crowd doesn't care.

Screw theories that make sense. I want the truth!!!

It's the beginnings of a new underground group who's sole purpose is to promote justice and equality by bringing down governments and attacking celebrity people who hold too much money. They have come to give us equality and give the poor people a chance. It's like V for Vendetta all over again. Hooray!!!

Hah. It's an entertaining thought though.

And I raelly want one of those masks.
