Moscow Pranksters 'Amazed' By Abuse In Viral 'Hand-In-Hand' LGBT Video

The makers of a viral video in which two young men secretly filmed themselves ambling through central Moscow hand-in-hand to gauge homophobia in Russia say they were "amazed" at the degree of abuse they faced.

Walking for several daylight hours through iconic tourist sites like Red Square, the two men were subjected to verbal abuse, leered at, barged into by an aggressive passerby, and finally attacked.
