Cannon Ball Liquor Stunts

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Captain Morgan Will Celebrate 'Cannon Blast' with a Human Cannon Ball

— October 17, 2015 — Marketing
In celebration of its newest product, Captain Morgan will take its 'Cannon Blast' to the streets of downtown Orlando in the form of human cannon balls. The Cannon Blast is meant to be a delicious liquor that is consumed only in shot form. The stunt is called the 'Cannon Blast Pub Crawl' and will be the highlight of the event.

Brian Miser will be the headliner of the event that will shut down the streets of Orlando. The seasoned cannon ball artist will engage in a stunt that will accelerate him over 65 miles per hour in the air and will fly 110 feet before landing. After Miser finishes the stunt, he will continue being shot out of a cannon until he completes the pub crawl. The Captain Morgan event will be broadcast on various social media platforms and can be followed using the hashtag #CannonBlastCrawl.
