But something will happen that happened to each of us when we shoot pictures: a guy coming out of nowhere walk in the way right at the moment we shoot the picture... and ruin the shot inadvertently. It could have stayed like this, one more ruined picture, but it didn't. Later, the guy doing his marriage proposal posted on Reddit what should have been the picture of the most important moment in his life, and suddenly everything became viral.
370000 people saw the pic and someone had the idea to create a "meme" and to have the "in the way guy" being responsible of ruining all the important pictures in photo history! I have to say that the walking guy is just perfect as you can see that he suddenly realizes that he is in the way and try to feel sorry at the same time - it's almost as we can hear him saying "ooops, deeply sorry, folks..."
So plenty of people began to create "meme" pictures including the guy in famous shots that we all know, like the one with the marines raising the U.S flag at Iwo Jima...
...or in the famous picture of the Yalta conference with Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin, at the end of WW II...
...or at the historical moment of Neil Armstrong shooting a picture of Buzz Aldrin on the Moon...
...or during the famous shot of a Mohammed Ali victory by knock-out...
...and even during the shooting of The Beatles Abbey Road LP cover photo...
...or early last century in this famous shot of workers building a skyscraper...
...but also in a movie scene like this one from Star Wars Episode 4...
...and even recently when William and Kate presented their baby to the world!
The one who is now known as the "in the way guy" is now "responsible" to have ruined every famous shot and even the Bat signal!
But, because they were at Walt Disney World the story had a happy ending for the couple as their friend did another try and finally succeeded to have the perfect shot of the wedding proposal!
