I have a really random, crazy friend from high school who makes his living doing random, crazy things as a filmmaker/comedian in New York City. A few months ago he got a ton of publicity for visiting every Starbucks in Manhattan (171 total) within 24 hours. Currently, he is living in Ikea for a week and capturing the experience on film: http://www.marklivesinikea.com/
The premise is that his apartment was being fumigated and he couldn't afford a hotel, and he figured 80% of his apartment is made up of Ikea anyway, so he may as well move in there for the week. I can't BELIEVE Ikea was willing to let him do it, but they've given him free reign.... anyway, some of the videos are amusing, so I just thought I'd share!
Warning: My best friend (also from high school) and I are very intrigued by Mark's recent popularity.... since he tends to walk a fine line between genuinely funny and just plain weird. But we've been watching his videos ever since our high school variety show in 9th grade, so he makes us laugh, anyway!
