Indian authorities left red-faced after ‘Moonwalk’ VIDEO goes viral
RT ^ | 2 Sep, 2019

As India’s space agency prepares to make history by landing on the Moon later this week, many of the country’s citizens have been left in stitches after footage of an apparent moonwalk went viral.

Just days before India’s lunar mission Chandrayaan-2 touches down on the Moon’s south pole on September 7, Baadal Nanjundaswamy, a famous Indian street artist, stole all the headlines with a wry takedown of the city council in Bengaluru.

Nanjundaswamy enlisted the help of theater actor and film star, Poornachandra Mysore, who helped stage a tongue-in-cheek ‘moonwalk’ to highlight the pockmarked pavement plaguing the city’s streets.

At approximately 10pm local time on Saturday, Mysore donned a silver space suit tailored by a local costume designer and began his hike across the ‘lunar surface.’

“The entire thing was shot on a mobile phone camera, no additional lights were used. So naturally, I didn’t expect it to turn out the way it did,” Nanjundaswamy said, adding that it cost approximately Rs 8000 ($111) to shoot the video.

I know for the most part RT is unwelcome but this is apolitical. Too funny. Then the moon lander crashes.

This skewers Indian governance and infrastructure through the heart. View Here

This is what social media is supposed to do - which is why governments are so frantic to regain control of it. :)

If they used Indian programmers for the software then if the TINIEST thing changes they will either not make it there or not make it back.

(btw: The video is HILARIOUS)

I have to admit, that is funny. 8>)

You had to wonder what the expressions were on the faces of those occupants in the 2 vehicles that passed him in his moon walk. 8>)

that is most EXCELLENT
Can we get these creative minds to do something similar to do something about the “sheet-in-the-street” that is going on in San Francisco and Los Angeles?
I mean - tragedy is comedy if you frame it in a certain way.
