From the Digital Box Set: This week, we look at Marketing Stunts. Many brands try to get into the Guinness Book of World Records as a marketing strategy. With that in mind, we’ll talk about how an energy drink staged a record-breaking jump from space, why a giant popsicle stunt melted before it even started, how unsuspecting travellers ended up running through a train station like James Bond, and how Richard Branson pulled off a stunt that drove British Airways crazy. Hope you join us for some eyebrow-raising stories.
