The previous post is an example of a flash mob musical number, where a huge crowd of people seemingly appear from nowhere to create this piece of performance art. There are a lot of different ways flash mobs show up, though, and here are a couple examples:

Great pieces. The Japanese 100 people flash mob pranks are especially powerful to me. It's amazing to think about the tipping point with numbers....that point when a crew becomes a gang becomes a force and so on.
I really like the xbox commercial. If video games were banned, I could definitely see this happening. I am sure that my house would be a war zone.
