Unfortunately, if I had been in there, I'd have been looking to figure out how the trick was done. I'd like to have a more vivid imagination... but I don't.

I liked how most of the marks began bolting. At least they're smart.

While I think this is funny, I am torn about this negatively affecting the marks involved. But, I did a lot of messed up stuff (that I now regret) as a teen that was all about negative surprise reactions from people.


Edit: Upon further reflection, I think the "marks" were also staged actors. So I don't feel as bad. They would have had to sign release forms in order to not have their faces blurred (unless the company likes being sued), and I don't know if all of them would agree to it. Others seemed to notice at least one "mark" had her phone's logo conveniently blocked via sticker.

This is cool, but I prefer the ghost kid in the elevator in brazil.

I thought it was really cool until the 2:12 mark when I learned it's viral marketing.
Then it got downgraded to "pretty cool".

Eh, as far as viral marketing goes, that's pretty top of the heap.

True, but the entertainment value I get from a thing is greater if it's just something a bunch of amateurs did for fun rather than something a bunch of professionals did for an advertising campaign.

Oh, I agree entirely, I was just saying, in the advertising bottom of the sewer, it's near the top of the sewer. A floater, if you will.
