First, people gathered in public places to scream like Goku.

Now, they're turning it down a notch, instead meeting up to quietly say "wow" like Owen Wilson.

Thousands of people have clicked "attending" for an event planned for Monday, Feb. 26 in Melbourne's Federation Square — 3,800, in fact. The event will apparently see a group of people show up, quietly say "wow" and leave. Such quiet

"Let's put some positivity out there into the world! Let's marvel at the beauty and Wonder of this incredible planet we live on, and let's WOW like Owen Wilson!" reads the event description.

I mean, the dude says "wow" a lot, we guess.
