Erik Jenssen (23) found himself in the strangest and most uncomfortable of situations yesterday, suddenly walking in the city center of Copenhagen in only his underwear, brutally exposing his self-conscious view of his own body. Sources close to Erik say it is very unlike him to go out in public for everyone to lay their eyes on him like that, as he is apparently even struggling with certain everyday things such as going to public urinals, undressing at beaches, being naked in public showers etc.
With no idea how he ended up on the street in his boxers, Erik was fortunate, however, to be met with broad understanding and sympathy from the street crowd. His apparent discomfort made it blatantly clear for everyone to see that the guy was just dreaming, sources confirmed.
A person walking by said he could easily tell that his guy was having a dream, as “he did not look like the kind of person who would exhibit himself in public”.
Several witnesses of Erik’s embarrassment gave similar accounts, saying they quickly went from being surprised to becoming understanding and sympathetic the moment they realized it was just a person having a dream.
“When I saw him, I first said to my classmate “wow, look at him, isn’t that our teacher?”,” a 14-year old student of Erik said. The students quickly realized how embarrassing it must have been for their teacher to expose himself to them like that, and walked past Erik pretending to not notice.
Two of Erik’s closest friends, who also passed by, postulated that the half-naked appearance could have been a comfort zone stunt motivated by a self development coach Erik had been consulting lately. However, they agreed that the dream theory was by far more likely.
