Hundreds of people showed up to push Chicago’s Bean 7 inches to the left after a viral post claimed a man was trapped inside

Hundreds of people gathered at Millennium Park to attempt to push the famous Cloud Gate sculpture seven inches to the left, as People reports. This massive crowd showed up after an anonymous flyer appeared on streets throughout the city, calling for the first push of the artwork at 12:47 PM. The flyer provided no explanation for the request, simply stating, “We need to move the bean seven inches to the left.” However, one invite mentioned that “there is a man trapped inside the bean” and the push would help them “be able to access that door and give the man inside the bean resources.” The sculpture, which locals call The Bean, is a heavy piece of art. It reportedly weighs 110 tons, so moving it by hand is impossible. Footage from the scene shows a large group of people working together to push the structure in the same direction.
