#IvorIscoming - One Man's New Profile Picture Becomes Viral Sensation
Companies round the world spend a fortune annually on trying
to make their content go viral. There is no exact science behind it and nothing
is guaranteed. Now just to rub it in, New York-based Irishman Ivor Noyek
has created a social media storm completely by accident, all just by changing
his profile picture.

His indisputably 'Hipster' pose caused a Facebook
friend to photoshop the image into a fake movie poster (see above). Before long
the internet at large stumbled upon the doctored pic and soon a mass of
memes started emerging, leading to the creation of the #IvorIsComing hashtag
and even his own Tumblr page dedicated to sharing the best of the memes.
So far, Ivor has been placed in iconic scenes from Shaun
of the Dead, The Lion King, Indiana Jones, The Wizard of Oz and
countless more. He even outran Usain Bolt!

And for a bit of fun before you go, how about a game of
'Where's Ivor?'

Ivor seems to be taking all the attention in his stride,
posting many of the memes to his own Facebook wall and describing his peculiar
rise to internet stardom as "hilarious s**t".
