Any photographer working in a public space has experienced this. People see you pointing your camera and duck down to get out of the shot. Perfectly pointless since with digital it doesn’t matter if a shot or two is spoiled by an intruder.
Arlo seems to be having fun making people duck while pretending to take a picture.
In my case, it’s usually when I’m using my tripod. People walking by think “Oh, important picture being taken” and think they’re doing me a favor by ducking down. But in fact when I’m using the tripod I’m usually taking my time to compose the shot and am more embarrassed by their ducking than helped by it.

People keep forgetting that digital photos are free.

This was the kind of thing they would do on Allan Funt’s old “Candid Camera” TV show. Some very funny stuff.
