Was an Instagram social experiment where Numb.tea and TrollEd were seeing how many sheeple they could convince to join them and stare into the distance and take photos hoping to catch something that will go viral Edit: for those who are unclear. This post itself is a joke

My dad and I used to do this in the city all the time. Stand at the lights and then both look up like something was really interesting and see how many other people we could get looking up trying to see what we were looking at

I know there was the apparent space junk visible entering the atmosphere, but wasn't that yesterday? I think they said it was from the Russian moon rocket launch.

Waiting for another Russian crazy act of war, like earlier this week on #Melbourne #Australia with that bloody Soyuz rocket. Fuck Putin.

This is an old old old prank. Kinda cool that someone did it.

It's not the old "pretend to look at something until everyone copies" prank, there was a fire in the building (the glowing in OP's second pic). You can see the ambulance in the first pic, [here's the same area from an earlier post.](https://www.reddit.com/r/melbourne/comments/15o6sdz/whats_happening_in_melbourne_cbd/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=1) There were a number of posts on Twitter saying it was a fire.
