The Dive museum in Gosport played a prank on its visitors over the holiday weekend. They replaced their saturation diving exhibit mannequin with a real person with hilarious results.
This person was a living mannequin performer known as mannequin-man. The human mannequin performer had covered his entire face with white latex make-up to appear like the other mannequins in the museum.
He then sat in the same position for hours, coming alive and speaking to the visitors to their surprise and amazement.
