if one guy got on in his underwear

and then... at the next stop, a different

guy got on also in his underwear.

And they wouldn't act

like they knew each other.

They wouldn't even

acknowledge each other.

I just wanted to see

what the reaction would be.

And I was able to get

six other guys

who were willing to come out and

take off their pants with me.

Rob Rosenbum, was manning

a hidden video camera.

We had no hidden camera

technology or strategy,

it was literally just,

the camera was in his lap,

and he had a magazine

lying on top of it.

And that was the extent

to which it was hidden.

I noticed that there was

a-a-a girl sitting on the train

who looked like

she was about my age.

I could maybe feel that she looked at

me or that they were looking at me,

but I didn't hear any reaction.

I knew that I was walking

right by her,

and I hoped that

she was end of frame

and that we were getting

her reaction.

And-and-and in fact we were

and it was great.

I positioned myself where I would kind

of be on the other side of the camera

and just hope that the camera

would also get Jesse Good,

the second guy,

when he walked-in.

I wasn't scared necessarily

of getting in trouble,

but there wasn't

a lot of explanation.

Initially, about what was gonna, what was

going on or what we were going to do.

There's a moment where the girl takes

her book and kind of puts it away

and decides to be

a little bit more alert.

You see her look

across the subway

at the two Danish guys

sitting next to the cameraman

and that makes her laugh.

I loved this

sort of change encounter,

where... the video camera just

happened to be pointing at her face.

My hope was hopefully this

girl,

you know, immediately went and

told everybody what just happened.

And hopefully she will always have that

experience of... this crazy thing.

It had to have

some sort of ending.

So, I came up with the idea

to have a pants seller.

We got pants!

I got pants for a $1!

Bring the pants down here!

I'll take some pants over

here, please.

At-at-at that point I felt

like, "Okay, good.

People are noticing

what we're doing.

This is working.

This is gonna be a success.

There were two guys,

who were really... angry

at the fact that... we've

come in not wearing pants.

Watch this.

I guess the first thing he

said was "Get a life. "

He starting saying that.

I think he said it

multiple times.

"Get a life. "

This is so f***ing stupid.

You guys better get a life.

A dollar?

You guys can get a life.

What do you mean?

You heard.

I... I hear every other word.

I don't understand

what by you mean by it.

I understand but why
