June 10, 2011, 3:04 PM — As part of a promotion for a new opera in London ("Two Boys"), we get this nice little clip of a man walking around London asking total strangers if they will be his friend, or if he could start (literally) following people. I've seen similar videos that try to show us how ridiculous social media can seem when taken out of the online realm and into "real life", but this one does a great job of seeing people react to the guy's requests.
