That time when I was a shirtless window cleaner

Late last year I was coerced bribed persuaded made to do a photoshoot where I had to be a shirtless window cleaner.

So I obliged.



Rehearsing for the real thing.

I was awkward, stiff. I've never cleaned a window before. And it's not like there was a window for me to clean. There's this horrible video of me swinging by entire body from left to right so that I wouldn't look like a block of wood. It'd make a great gif if I knew how to make gifs.

And you can get even closer:



In all, there are 24 hilarious scenarios. Some of my favourite include kimye (Kim K and Kanye), the mermaid on a roof and a troop of zombies. Needless to say, I was massively entertained.

Tag me if you found me.

Happy hunting!
