Not quite sure of what's a 'flash mob'? (well here's the scoop!)

A flash mob is a group of people who assemble suddenly in a public
place,
and perform an unusual act for a brief time, often for the purposes
of
entertainment and/or satire, and then disperse. First attempted in 2003,
flash mobs have become an Internet phenomenon. Combined with social
media, flash mobs can send a powerful message.

Here is a great example of flash mob goes “green,” which took
place in Canada in 2011.
