Surprise Torch Run

Full Story: http://improveverywhere.com/2014/02/17/surprise-torch-run/ SUBSCRIBE: http://bit.ly/iesub Join Us: http://improveverywhere.com/email-lists/ We staged a fake torch run in the middle of Manhattan, giving random New Yorkers a chance to carry the flame. A performer posing as an injured athlete asked people on the street to help her by carrying the torch around the block. Once the New Yorkers rounded the corner, they were surprised by a huge mob of people cheering and a TV news crew. Enjoy the video first and then go behind the scenes with our mission report and photos.
