project44 hit pause this week...for 44 seconds.

The local supply chain tech company took on the "Mannequin Challenge," the latest viral video craze that asks a group of people to stay frozen--as though someone hit the pause button on life-- as a camera makes its way through the scene. Everyone from Kelly Clarkson to Hillary Clinton's campaign, have taken on the challenge.

In this video, you can see project44 employees midway through a game of ping pong (ball frozen mid-bounce), about to open a bag of chips and playing a game of Pac Man on their in-office arcade game.

Take a look at project44's take on the mannequin challenge here:

Merchandise Mart tech hub 1871 got into the spirit as well, with their own take on the Mannequin Challenge:
