Comedian Kyle Ayers made an ordinary couple instantly famous as he pry on their private conversations. He tweeted last sunday " A couple is breaking up on my roof right now. I was just trying to enjoy the view. Now I will live tweet the breakup. #roofbreakup."
In the next thirty minutes, he detailed the couple's emotional outbursts with about 50 tweets. And it became viral in the social media. Even news agency like BBC and Time picked up the story.
The conversation discussed about their differences and insecurites. For instance the girl said "I'm not looking for marriage, just what's right below marriage.". Later the guy said " You think I'm immature? Calling people immature is immature." Here's a YouTube reenactment of their fight.
Within 3 hours of tweets, there were about 3,000 tweets from people around the world responding with amusement. Some even commented it's much better than what they see on movies.
However, BBC questioned the ethics of invading one's privacy. Belinda Buscombe of Time shared what we can learn from this event.
What do you think of this? I must admit we all can relate to them.
