Bored in the Airport

Two still photographers. Two kits full of video-capable gear. Stuck overnight in the DFW airport. Unsupervised.

Hijinks ensue...

Overhead Bin - Humorous airport video no laughing matter for DFW officials

Re: Bored in the Airport

These guys are my new heroes! They should have left some cash for the beer And the keyboard bit was a bit over the top (didn't look like it got damaged though) but having recently been in an airport at 4am...I totally get the intent. Bad thing is I had my 7D and a few lenses and could have done a video myself! Arrrrgh!

Re: Bored in the Airport

There has been a good deal of discussion about whether this video was genuine, given the airport was so vacant.
Having spent my adult life working at an international airport, I can certainly vouch for them being that empty in the middle of the night. I question some of the shots being done without having additonal help. Apparently my skepticism was shared by many others; Japopnik and Gizmodo are both running stories about having contacted the two and verifying their story of being alone. It appears legit..
