The aim of this viral video is that it will increase sales to make up for the $800k in items destroyed shooting the ad. To shop like the man in this video, you'll need more physical talent and stealth than Michael Jordan! The question the clip leaves with me with is, what will happen if customers actually start to buy this way? The answer: a huge quantity of items will fly through the air, and shopping will become an amusing experience for all!
