    Yup, I see plenty of men with an invisible part from the chest to the thighs. They're wandering around all over the place these days, doesn't half make it difficult in the supermarket when you go to get something off a shelf only to hit a man's invisible bit!!

    To me, it looks like they just trash picked it and are laughing that they may get a few bucks off of reselling it.

    "I don't want the mirror to capture me taking a photo of it" - "Ok, so why not put the camera on a chair with timer and stand next to it?" - "OH! Hadn't thought of that! Brill idea!"
