"Freeze for Europe" - The first ever European FREEZE MOB!

We have a challenge for you:

I. Would you dare to do something crazy in the middle of the European Commission's Headquarters?

II. Are you able to freeze without moving, talking or making any facial expressions for 3 minutes, while outsiders stare at you, take pictures and film you?

III. Can you keep a secret? Whisper about the FREEZE MOB to your friends and invite as many as you can to join us. But don’t forget we will have a maximum reaction if outsiders are caught by surprise.

If your answer is YES, come along on 7 May before noon to the Berlaymont building for the Open Day 2011. Walk around and get to know more about the European Commission's work from the inside and when the clock strikes 12:00 FREEZE with all Commission staff for 3 minutes!

If you are already working at the Open Day, no worries, freeze with your colleagues on your stands. We will record everything so this is your chance to become a VIRAL STAR on Youtube and Facebook!

While "frozen" you will get a lot of attention with people taking pictures of you, filming you and trying to talk to you. Be strong and do not "melt"!

After 3 minutes, at exactly 12:03, continue what you were doing, talking with people, walking around, etc. If anyone asks you, you have NO IDEA what just happened!
