A flash mob is designed to draw public attention to the frequent cases of suicides among veterans of wars. According to official statistics, which were published by the Department of veterans Affairs, the US daily the 22 former members of various wars commit suicide.

According to the calculations of the project 22kill, currently part of the flash mob were more than 7.5 million push-UPS, whereas the aim of the campaign is $ 22 million. Gradually, the flash mob joined by more and more people from all over the world, including Hollywood celebrities. Now the Network can find a video on this topic posted by Chris Pratt, Anna Faris, Dwayne Johnson, Kevin HART and many others.

This is not the first global flash mob, which is attended by celebrities. In the summer of 2014, the Network launched a campaign whose purpose was to attract the attention of people from all over the world to such disease as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In this flash mob, dubbed “ice bucket challenge” (challenge bucket ice water), was attended by many eminent personalities: VIN Diesel, mark Zuckerberg, Stephen king, bill gates and many others.
