Typical Brit sense of humor but in the wrong place at the wrong time, they should have thought about their actions before the even went there, for what's it's worth, New York, I apologise for the senseless action of these dim wits.
Bad taste.......but no big deal, after all they are Britains abroad.
Other than the doll thousands of others are guilty of the same actions as this stag party.

That said I would have thought at least one of them would have the good sense to deflate the doll.
Sqad, remind us again where you live ;-)
Apart from the doll.......

The doll is the whole point. Forget the selfies. It's the doll which is the problem.
I have already said the Doll was bad taste, apart from that they are no better or worse than tens of thousands of others who visit the site every day.
Very few of them seem to walk around with glum faces!
Zac....LOL...you are a very cheeky Yorkshireman.
what is it with these stag parties these days? I just got plastered the day before, now they have a bl33din holiday F/F\S. Yes anyway, poor taste but I doubt it was deliberately intended to offend they just didn't think it through.
Aye lad, I am that.

TTT > Yes anyway, poor taste but I doubt it was deliberately intended to offend they just didn't think it through.

Not a brain cell between them eh? Tut tut.
Talbot, then the article should be about 90% of the people who visit the site and take selfies, not a British stag party with a blow up doll, which is the DM headline.
i don't suppose what they were doing was any more tasteless than this home-grown effort....

The whole "selfie" business is a bit incomprehensible to me. Why do people feel the need to prove to the world that they were somewhere/with somebody or whatever? All very strange.

This particular mob? Bunch of disrespectful idiots. However, the reason the UK, the US and most western countries are different to Islamic states is that you can do things like that and only be thought of as a disrespectful pillock. In some Islamic states you'd have various parts of your anatomy summarily lopped off.

Since the invention of the camera coupled with cheap air fairs, people have been taking pictures of themselves with national monuments in the background. It is not a particularly new thing.

What is new is the quality of cameras in smartphones. People can take a snap of themselves and the mail the snap to friends, or post on Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook or whatever.

It's a new form of communication - and it's exactly the same as sending a postcard.

In fact, now that I think of it...I don't know anyone under my age who still sends postcards.

Bravo for dragging Islam into a thread that has nothing to do with Islam.

Next week, I will post something about the career of Noel Edmonds. I challenge you to get something about liquorice into that thread.
I can't remember the last time I sent or received a postcard. I always buy some when I go to a museum or art gallery, but keep them for myself because I like the pictures.

I don't do selfies.
Yes it's disrespectful (the doll that is) - am curious to know why the News Report reproduced an image of the said inflatable 15 times in that article.
Last summer I was in the 9/11 museum and everyone in there was sombre as you would be when you are looking at some of the actual artifacts from the towers and a group of American lads came through, laughing, taking selfies, shoving each other around and being generally very loud. I don't think the "typical Brits" comments are terribly fair.
