Had my first experience with this back during our cruise. I think it might've been in Costa Maya. Looked like a statue to me, some of the tourists were taking pictures with the statue, then he started to move.. He had me fooled for sure, and those taking pictures with the "statue" were completely freaked out.
I couldn't be still that long to play that prop... not to mention all of the prep work that goes into it. Dude did look like a statue though! Probably took him most of the night to get that face dressing cleaned off. Hope he was compensated accordingly!
