3. Action: The performer is holding a cardboard sign that says "Would you like to hold my hand?", thus inviting strangers to hold hands with the performer – if they like. The action of holding hands will take exactly 2:25 minutes (the length of the song I want to hold your hand by The Beatles). The performer measures the time by silently going through the song. If a participant lets go of the performer's hand before the end of the song, the performer has to sing the rest of the song out loud.
