Mieli Valta, the local IE Global group in Helsinki, Finland, pulled off a cool mission on Valentine’s day.
They report:
To celebrate Valentines Day, a small group of us spent a romantic moment in Nordea Bank Hakaniemi. Videotaping in a bank proved difficult but we managed to capture a little something, happy valentines!

This past Saturday “frozen in time” missions happened in both London and Toronto. They were inspired by our Frozen Grand Central mission and organized via Improv Everywhere Global. The idea seems to be spreading like wildfire, as other groups in other towns are organizing similar events as well on IE Global.
The London event took place in Trafalgar Square and had an estimated 1,000 participants.

The Toronto event took place at one of Canada’s busiest shopping malls and was covered by CBC news.
There was also another London event last week in Waterloo Station:

The modest spike is for No Pants and then the insane spike is for Grand Central.
Being on the front page of YouTube, Digg, Reddit, Boing Boing, Gawker, and more has generated an unbelievable amount of traffic to our site. Our tech guy, Agent Minter, has worked long hours buying us new temporary server space to handle the load. We’ve had 1.3TB of network traffic since Friday afternoon. Long story short, our bill is already several hundred dollars and will continue to grow. If you like what we do, please consider making a small donation to help us cover our costs. All money goes directly towards paying our bills and funding new missions.
Thank you for your support!
