Great line. Great experience. Not much reach, but the video impresses.

If you watch closely, it's fake (or staged, depending on how you want to look at it). There's a green reflection on the hand railing, meaning the floor was covered in a green screen and they later filled in the floor dropping. Also, the perspective changes on the monitors with the different "hidden" cameras. If they had actually done this as presented, there would only be one point of perspective.

So dope. And executed very well. I really like the reactions.

The reactions are fake too. They're actors.

They're actors. If you watch closely, you can tell the floor was green screened. There's a green glow on the hand railing and doors. Also, the angle changes from camera to camera. If they'd actually done it as a stunt, there would only be one point of perspective showing on the monitors.

OK, but no one in the elevator knows what is the product... So it's just a cool trick in a elevator with screens for ...? something... ? Great idea, but bad advertising work.

Essentially, they faked it as a stunt hoping it would go viral on youtube. If you read the comments on youtube, it backfired. People picked up on it being fake, which kind of contradicts the whole, "So real it's scary" thing.

I looked in 1080p and you seem having right! It look like a fake!

Just a movie showing the exact idea.

In 1999.
