Is that guy just sitting on the egg crates, with his foot resting on another? I know europeans and americans have differing views on egg handling, but this seems extreme. Even if I had such a surplus of eggs, I'm not sure if I would pose sitting on them. I don't necessarily have an equal surplus of pants.
