Huge pillow fight takes place in Milan's Duomo square

If you were in Milan’s centre yesterday, any ideas you had about nutter Italians would have been confirmed on encountering a massive pillow fight.
Much publicised on Facebook the event took place in the square in front of the Duomo, and was captured in the video you see above.

What’s the point? There isn’t one – you meet up and beat the hell out of each other with pillows (which apparently hurts according to one comment on Facebook).
A kind of “find the kid in you” event, it saw the return of flash mob, and is similar to free hugs, “hug a musician”, and the free kicks from Cadorna recently.

We apologise to any tourists who may have been disturbed by the free for all.
