Ready, set, freeze!

You may remember how last month, an improv group staged a pants-less commuting day on Chicago trains and buses. Looks like the group, which goes by Improv Everywhere, is at it again. Over 200 Improv Everywhere Agents froze in place at the exact same second for five minutes in the Main Concourse of Grand Central Station in New York City. No joke - check out the clip below.



These guys are brilliant. How freaked out would you have been had you been walking through Grand Central Station with all kinds of people just frozen in place? Not even a performance by William Hung would have gotten them to move. Actually, that's probably not true.

For more of Improv Everywhere's shenanigans, including what they did at a Starbucks on Tuesday, click here.

The Starbucks clip is freaking *hilarious*. Windows 95? And they even went for the boxy 2005 non-flat panel 60-pound monitors. That's dedication.

I totally forgot about that! That was probably one of the most hilarious nights of my life.
