Bondi Beach Gets Flipped! Towel Surfing - Flip Video Flash Mob


www.doyouflip.com.auBondi Beach, home to some of the worlds greatest surfers, became home to a new surfing phenomenon today when Towel Surfing was born!

Over 200 people joined in synchronous dance on their towels to the music of Australian music icon Ben Lee in a perfectly choreographed routine that amazed onlookers.

It started with one, lone individual, who walked through the crowd of sunbathers and surfers and placed his boombox on the sand in the middle of the crowded beach and pressed play. What followed was a contagion of rhythm and dance as one by one other beachgoers joined in began surfing on their towels.
They kicked their feet, paddled with their hands and bobbed up and down checking for waves all while remaining on their towels, dry on the pristine sand of Bondi Beach.

You should take a look at what sociologists say about flashmobs.

Significant ? Yes, it's all about semiotics, but it's not at all what you think.

The fact you resulted to insults shows how desperate and flawed your argument is.

The point of something like this is to surprise onlookers, as it did. Of course they're dancers, and I applaud you for pointing out the obvious, but the fact is that they're dressed as sunbathers to surprise and raise the public eye.

Phenomenon:
a. An unusual, significant, or unaccountable fact or occurrence; a marvel.

Unusual and significant. Blissful ignorance is overlooking words, as you did. Try harder.
