But what you haven’t seen is how he (and we) did that.
We thought we would give you a behind-the-scenes look at how this video came together. If you go to our facebook page you can watch a 4-minute video that shows you how director Rob Cohen oversaw the making of that video. If you’re afraid of heights, let me warn you. This can be a bit hair-raising.
As you’ll see, Cohen actually used three wing suit jumpers to play the role of FiOS Speed Guy. There has been lots of speculation that the video was mostly CGI, or that Verizon Speed Guy flew into a mattress out the back door of the house. Neither is true-just see for yourself.
OK, so these wing suit jumpers are fearless. But how about the camera crew? How’d you like that job?
While you’re on our facebook page, enter the FiOS Speed Adventure Sweepstakes for chances to win some fabulous speed-related prizes including a trip to Las Vegas to attend flight school at Air Combat USA, a Supercar experience in Las Vegas and a chance to attend America’s Cup and ride on a yacht in the San Diego Bay. You will also be eligible to win a rafting and zip lining experience in Brown’s Canyon on the Arkansas River, a rally driving experience, and a stock car experience.
FiOS Speed Guy is helping us showcase how fast our amazing new FiOS Quantum Internet speeds of 50, 75, 150 and 300 Mbps on the download and 35 and 65 Mbps on the upload are. FiOS Quantum Internet became available June 18. You can read all about it at www.verizon.com/fiosquantum.
