Verizon Commercial

[GWguy]

New commercial for Verizon's hot spot with G4 LTE. They fire a rocket at the hot spot and the same time they start downloads, in an attempt to finish the download before the rocket hits the hot spot and blows up.


Three geeks behind a shield 20 feet from the target. The rocket hits the target and blows up.

The geeks don't even notice, they're all jumping up and down because they completed the download of a picture.

ok, wtf. What red-blooded american would rather cheer a data download rather than the rocket exploding and making flame and disaster just a few feet away??? Cripes, they didn't even notice!!!!

No picture, just a typical target with the LTE hot spot device at the bull's eye.

They blowed up the hot spot!

Unrelated but kind of.

Picture same situation on Mythbusters you go hide behind your bullet proof blast shield. You have a guest on your show and find out this bast shield you've been using for years isn't. It's just plexiglass in an aluminum frame.
