Fred Beyer crashes New York Fashion Week

Fred Beyer managed to make his way onto the ramp at one of the concluding shows of New York Fashion Week. The YouTuber was outrageously dressed in a garbage bag fashioned as a hoodie which he wore over casual pink shorts. He added another hilarious touch to his 'look' with a shower cap. 

The video shows Beyer confidently making his way onto the runway, performing a bit of an exaggerated walk. He can also be seen shaking hands with a model exiting the ramp who also buys into the narrative. While Beyer's offense does not immediately register - either to the seated audience or the security personnel, the latter are quick to catch on. A security personnel manages to nab Beyer right before he reaches the end of the runway. The tackle is what lets the seated audience in on the prank.
