[QUOTE="samila224, post: 9485947, member: 165800"] [IMG]http://resources3.news.com.au/images/2011/02/09/1226002/924163-shaving-helmet.jpg[/IMG] [B]WE thought something was fishy about the shaving helmet, and it turns out our suspicions were not unfounded. It may be unsurprising to most that the video which featured a protype of the shaving helmet was a hoax. The rumours were true, the helmet isn’t real, and we wouldn’t recommend you try it out lest you land up looking like a bald Johnny Depp from Edward Scissor hands. The video was part of a marketing campaign for a company called HeadBlade, that sells scalp shaving products. It wasn’t even a clever trick – the good people at ThinkModo, a viral video marketing company, used the old switcheroo to show the before and after of the shaving helmet’s capabilities. The video featured twin brothers Keith and Kenny Lucas as the guinea pig for the helmet; the twin with hair was switched for his hairless brother during a 15 second pan away from the subject. HeadBlade even posted the making of their video on their website, showing exactly how they got away with the stunt. When asked if it was a hoax, James Perceley, Cofounder of Thinkmodo told CNN “It is, but we find you have to go to extremes to get attention”. “Never ever believe a video on YouTube if it’s too good to be true,” said Michael Krivicka, ThinkModo cofounder.[/B] [YOUTUBE]8AUE0UANshQ[/YOUTUBE] :P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P [SIZE="3"] බලපු නැති කට්ටිය බලන්න[/SIZE] [URL="http://www.elakiri.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1069697"]::::::::::Caterpillar Off-Highway Truck::::::::::[/URL] [/QUOTE]
