The pillow fight is an amazing alternative to fistfights that we fell in love with in our early childhood. Instead of bruises, pillows leave feathers, and instead of offenses, laughter and joy. Multiply these feelings several thousand times - after all, adults fight with pillows in a massive and organized manner.
The pillow fight is one of the most popular flash mobs in the world. The participants of the flash mob get to the battlefield - a popular place in some large city by hiding their pillows. At the moment of "X" ordinary residents open their mouths in surprise at the sight of the following picture: hundreds, and sometimes thousands of people from nowhere take out pillows and begin to beat each other with them. Maybe someone comes up with the idea of riots, but not the police. They themselves are not averse to having fun watching pillow fights that last from a few minutes to several hours.
The largest pillow fight in human history was staged in New York in 2005. It was attended by 3648 students. The pillow fight among students is especially popular. At Columbia University, on the eve of the session, these fights are a tradition. On the last day off before passing the exams, students must measure their strength with pillows. Girls also love to fight with pillows. There is even a special "Pillow Fight League". Also in "World Wrestling Entertainment" (WWE) similar fights of women-wrestlers are regular.

It's hard to believe, but these realistic paintings were made not in oil or watercolors, but with ordinary ballpoint pens
“All I have is just eight colored ballpoint pens,” says self-taught Portuguese artist Samuel Silva, who creates stunningly realistic paintings that are so hard to distinguish from photographs.
