Nice contrast to the futuristic render, and an excellent use of flip-flops.

Public place, full of people. At least two security guards, one runs off clutching lapel microphone. Unlikely sandal wearing man and guard only witnesses. But illuminates training and situational awareness aren't perfect; at least one instance where coolheaded instinct and reaction saved the day with minimal distress.

More scholarly pursuits, I hit Wikipedia and Copernic.
