"The Yes Men" features activists Andy Bichlbaum and Mike Bonanno impersonating WTO members and attending conferences to get peoples' responses. With every prank that they pull, they keep expecting the attendees to reject their ideas (e.g., a phallic device for bosses to watch employees from all the way around the world), but the attendees passively accept it. This just goes to show what the WTO is really all about.
I gotta say, it's amazing that these guys were able to pull it off. What was really funny was the names that they came up with: Granwyth Hulatbert and Hardy Hank Unruh. And nobody ever checked to see if they were real! The whole thing may seem incredible, but we should take it seriously.
