If you had the occasion to meet the red-stripe shirt character Waldo in a book or a magazine when you were a kid, then you know what an awesome childhood looks like.
His popularity made him an icon for so many children across the world. The catch was to find him in a crowd where everything could look like him only that it was not. He is still a part of our pop culture even after so much time since the initial hype. So a guy decided to take it to the next level. On his Instagram account he posts pictures of him turned into real-life Waldo. He goes to different location around the world and pictures himself with the famous apparel without ever showing his face.
It’s such an awesome way to create amazing snapshots. I’d say it’s original, even if he’s not the mastermind behind the persona, he makes a great use of the concept.
