5,200 Australians bare all for photo shoot (1 Viewer)

SYDNEY — About 5,200 naked people have embraced each other on the steps of Sydney's iconic Opera House for a photo shoot by Spencer Tunick.
Tunick, who is known for his nude group photos in public spaces, posed participants for more than an hour in a variety of positions Monday.
"It was difficult to get the straight participants to embrace the gay participants and vice versa," Tunick said. "So I was very happy that that last set up finally got done and everyone came together (in a) united, friendly kiss, a loving kiss in front of this great structure."
Nineteen-year-old student Art Rush said he was thrilled to participate.
"I'll never get a chance to do this again; it's not worth being inhibited," Rush said. "It doesn't feel sexual, it just feels tribal, a gathering of humanity."

Grant Denyer was reporting on it, and the naked people started chanting at him to get his kit off, and he did.


And then he shook his willy at them.

Why is it ok for 5200 people to be naked in public when it is declared indecent for 1? I don't give a crap for all the "it's art" argument... that one person could be pulled up by the police or whatever and then declare their lack of clothing as a personal artwork.

This isn't news. This is stupid.

When one person does it, it's weird. When several thousand do it, it's normal.

That's just life.

Would you srsly like to be the police officer/precinct that brings in 5200 people for indecent exposure?
You'd be the only one doing ze paperwork.
