1. Go into an empty elevator, press the floor button you are going to, then turn to face the wall standing really close to it.

Add your own if you think of any and if you try it tell us the results, please.

The elevator is empty, so what's the purpose?
At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new.
This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan

People at the next stop see you facing the wall and their like....wtf???

it also works if you go into a full elevator, and DONT turn to face the door, but instead face everyone already in there...it bothers them...elevator ettiqute demands everyone turn and look up at the floor numbers....anything else freaks people out

It might not remain empty for long...you might feel a hand touch you, I don't know, try it.

I also like Mule's idea.

  • Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Urban Legend .....

If you walk through a Walmart with only a palm leaf covering your member, you will be invisible....No one will notice you at all.

So create our own urban legend? Kind of like how Slender Man was invented in 2009?

   I like my space in a crowded place and if I am touched by "a hand" as you put it, they better say sorry pretty quickly.There's nothing like saying in a LOUD voice,HEY BUD WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU UP TO.
(1) try your best, ............if that dont work.
(2) try your second best, ........if that dont work
(3) give up you aint gonna win
