Punch A Chinese Panda Bear For One Cent A Shot: Photos

PUNCH Me Panda sees Nate Hill journey about New York City dressed a panda bear. He offers strangers the chance to punch him. It’s one penny a blow. Anorak wonders who you would like Nate to dress up as next? The Hello Kitty cat? Noel Edmonds? Jeremy Kyle? France?

Says Nate:

By work has little to say on technology. Its about either blending the adult world and the child’s world and responding to ageing (free bouncy rides, candy crack) or about helping people get over personal loss and tragedy (Death Bear).

Says Punch Me Panda:

Do you ever get so mad that you want to punch something? I’m here for you. My name is Punch Me Panda. Kidnapped from my family in China, I got mailed to the Bronx Zoo. Luckily, my crate got lost in the mail, and I ended up here in Brooklyn. I wandered around the city awhile and ended up living on the street. I noticed that New York City, though wonderful, can sometimes get people down. Things happen here, and they’re not always good.
I got an idea. I need to make some money to eat, and New Yorkers could use some help. So, if you’re frustrated, angry, or just had a bad day, I will come to your house, and you can punch me. I wear a chest protector, and you wear boxing gloves, so no one gets hurt. It costs one cent per punch. With these pennies, I can get on my feet, and you can get out that aggression. Together, we can make our lives better.
