Mime artists across the world are silently applauding the first ever recorded occurrence of a mime artist breaking out of a glass box.

There was nearly a breakout in 1987 when Chico the twat had the idea of using an invisible glass hammer but, alas, that shattered into non-existent shards upon contact with the container.

The miraculous event took place in a pub in Brixton, the Albert, on Tuesday night this week. The silence was deafening as the part-time Pierrot was fingering around the edges of his invisible prison and suddenly found the gap in the sliding doors in front of him that had been tormenting him for years.

One punter tweeted: “He’s done it! That f**king annoying c**t has escaped like a fish out of an aquarium!”

Female mime artists have been complaining for years about the glass ceiling in the male-dominated profession. One female mime artist tweeted:

Other related professions like silver-sprayed mannequin artists are now hoping for a similar breakthrough in being able to finally step off their stupid silver podium and f**king off home so that people are no longer irritated by their pointless, un-entertaining and tedious non-activities.
