I'd say number 5. He is just accessing the situation, hanging back, not laughing, perhaps trying to learn something. Number 3 seems to be waiting for number 4 to say something or make some kind of move. Number 4 seems ready to do just that, I'll bet it was his idea to walk up to them. Of course not taking economics into it number 1 and 2 are ignoring the fellas that are about to give them a hard time. I'd identify with that as well.

What a fantastic analysis. ). You know, I took 3 as the power behind the scenes. That little egging on that 4 needs. I agree on 5, he's just there calmly want Hong what's going on. Thank you Morning, that was alright.
Five and maybe three. Five looks like he has a healthy distrust of strangers. Three seems to have that look of get a load of these jerk-offs. One and two look clueless and four looks like he can't wait to brown-nose one and two.
4 seems to realize 1 and 2 are haughty, pretentious twits. Unlike 1 and 2, 3, 4 and 5 can go play and rough house with out concern of ruining their clothes.
Pretentious twist. . .that's funny. . . You know, as much as I don't like to admit it I like the sense of self assurance of number two, I don't know if he notices the other ones staring at him, but he makes no apologies for what he is, you know? He's like, hey, whatever. I like that too. Thanks Whistle.
I was first going to say Number Four also - - not because I'm always self-assured, but I was drawn to his look of self-assuredness. Now I look at all five of them - - in their own ways, I find them all looking self-assured. In general, I admire that in people.
I like the photo itself, too. It's well-spaced out and the placement of people, objects, and poses, angles -- it all works well to my eyes.
:)
Oh, and I didn't know this was a famous photo. I've never seen it before.

Yeah, it's supposed to be some kind of iconic photograph but I can't remember it's details. It's supposed to depict all classes of society. . . The ruler aristocrat. . . The bureaucrat. . .the worker. . .the rebel . . . And.the other guy... I can't remember. I take number four as irreverent and about to mock the other two. He looks fearless and confident. I think because I'd like to be more like that, I feel more drawn to him. I agree with you , I think it's a great picture.
I see Number Four the same way you can see him, Lago. But Glis adds an other aspect that I can see in Number Four possibly and it's the complete opposite. I find it all interesting out different 'takes' on the same image! :)
Four looks exactly the opposite to me. He looks like he wants to be there buddy. He has such a kiss-a$$ grin like he's scared to make a mistake in front of the "cool kids".
I think number three knows exactly what buttons to push on number four to get him to jump, you know? Almost like saying, "come on man, look at him!" . . . I think the expression on those two is the funniest part of the whole picture. Thanks WW I completely agree with your appreciation of little mischievous number three.

People keep saying he looks like he is up too something but I just don't see anything but a wimpy kiss-ass. 3 and 5 look like they are about to ditch him. Three looks like he's questioning why four wants to hang out with them so badly and 5 looks he's about to jack them.
