I don't have any data, but I've analysed this video a number of times and I've come to the conclusion that it's hilarious: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8-Kcg11YcY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I won't lie, I had a close shave with a car a couple of months ago. It was one of those 'silent' pedestrian crossings opposite Union Square in Aberdeen and with a large group of people waiting, everyone else started walking across. I just presumed that the green man was up and walked across in a day dream, not realising that it was still red with a pile of on-coming traffic coming after another set of lights had turned green for them. Lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
