Introducing Braco the gazer..
Hell, I could stand there doing absolutely nothing and people would pay for the honor of being in my presence..
I too could stand and stare at the wall doing absolutely nothing else for hours on end..

How do ya get a gig like this?
Well, you may have missed that boat, but you could still find fame and fortune as a geezer.
Most people spend their day gazing at their smart phones. I don't see why this guy is such a big deal.
I would guess it takes 1,000 suckers to keep a scammer like that in business. And considering how many scammers there are out there, that is a LOT of suckers.
Granted, there may be overlap where the same sucker helps support multiple scammers.
A gazer is like a seer that doesn't do anything. He couldn't make it as a seer so all he does is gaze. People are too easily impressed.
I've seen drunks do something similar just before they pass out.
When I see videos like this or of religious services it reminds me that so many people are looking for some kind of transcendence or to share an emotional experience with other people.

Sharing an emotion experience ... is called bonding. Anti-social types can't do it. A few may seek transcendence, but it is best to do it alone, not in your company break room.
..insert PT Barnum quote...
If he gazes at me like that, I'll kick his ass.

I think that's what I'm seeing too.

He's channeling an Afghan hound, which happens to be the least intelligent of dog breeds.

You must have searched for hours to find that. Actually, the hound may appear to be slightly more alert, but it's very close.

A good gaze can't be too intense. You're not really looking at anything. You don't want to seem like you're paying close attention. You're gazing, possibly while reminiscing about a special memory like last night's MacDonald's hamburger. That's a good gaze.

Staring at other people is a form of aggression. Animals interpret staring as a prelude to physical attack. If the predator is a cat, and shuffles his rear end ... attack in immanent.

The difference between gazing and staring can be quite important. The antelope gazes out at the horizon; the cheetah stares at dinner.
Oddly, an old memory. I was in my 1st apartment with 4 other guys. One guy was always hungry for pizza; another worked at a pizza place. The first guy looked at pizza with longing; the other looked at one with jaded boredom.
