Sometimes you just want to take a dip in the ocean. In fact, the urge can be so strong that you develop blinders as the sea breeze calls you in with its siren song. That’s what happened to an ordinary Australian man who simply needed the salty water between his toes.

Australian Fashion Week was in full force at Tamarama Beach in Sydney last month. As perfectly sculpted male models began descending wooden stairs onto the beach, our dude, clad in a button-down shirt and baggy shorts, threw his towel over his shoulder. Model after model, each presenting a serious “Blue Steel” look, passed in front of and behind him, and he barely noticed.
