A group of Pranksters gave out 2,000 high fives by standing next to a subway escalator during the morning rush. Five additional pranksters spread out along the adjacent stairs, holding signs that prepared commuters for the upcoming high five fun.
People on the further escalator watch the high fives
Rob executed a few “double high fives” when people passed up the steps
They lasted 45 minutes, staying through the bulk of the morning rush. On overage Rob passed 2,700 people and calculated that around 75% of commuters played along.

Sponsored silences, cutting your hair and singing in the middle of the street are all brilliant dares but have you got the nerve to go one step further and really push it to the limit?
Here are some dare suggestions not for the faint hearted
1. Bungy jumping naked
2. Sampling the delights of a mole cricket.
3. Going to work in a man-kini
4. Use your kids tri-cycle as your only means of transport
5. Live at your work place for a week
Dan Barber, Reuben “Super Rbz” Tan, Nicole Annson, Rachel Wells and Thor Amundsen AKA Belmont Oasis Renegades are trying to raise a massive $1000 by doing a body combat fitness class all dressed up as super hero’s.
They were cops, and good at their jobs. But they committed the ultimate sin, and testified against other cops gone bad. Cops that tried to kill them, but got the woman they loved instead. Framed for murder, now they prowl the badlands. Outlaws hunting outlaws, Bounty hunters, Renegades.
Dress down friday was taken to a whole other level when nearly 2500 people took off their pants on subways in 22 cities around the world in January this year.
In New York’s 8th Annual No Pants! Subway Ride there were over 1,200 participants, spread out over four subway lines.

TRANSCRIPT:
Shame on you. This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you’re going to let it be the worst. And I guarantee a week won’t go by in your life you won’t regret walking out, letting them get the best of you. Well, I’m not going home. We’ve come too far! And I’m going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. A day may come when the courage of men fails… but it is not THIS day. The line must be drawn HERE. This far, no further! I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. You’re going to work harder than you ever worked before. But that’s fine, we’ll just get tougher with it! If a person grits his teeth and shows real determination, failure is not an option. That’s how winning is done! Believe me when I say we can break this army here, and win just one for the Gipper. But I say to you what every warrior has known since the beginning of time: you’ve got to get mad. I mean plum mad dog mean. If you would be free men, then you must fight to fulfill that promise! Let us cut out their living guts one inch at a time, and they will know what we can do! Let no man forget how menacing we are. We are lions! You’re like a big bear, man! This is YOUR time! Seize the day, never surrender, victory or death… that’s the Chicago Way! Who’s with me? Clap! Clap! Don’t let Tink die! Clap! Alright! Let’s fly! And gentlemen in England now abed shall know my name is the Lord when I tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our Independence Day!
