Execution
In December 2013 the independent online-newspaper Znak.com celebrated it’s first anniversary. During this year it entered the Top 10 of internet media in Russia supported by the reader’s interest. It was time to thank the readers for their support.
We printed two books: 500 pages of Znak.com’s articles and 500 pages of the readers’ comments. Without any adhesive, we bound the books together page by page. Supported only by the friction force between the pages of the books, we raised editor-in-chief Aksana Panova more than 18 meters in the air. This represented the connection that keeps Znak.com from falling.
The stunt was widely discussed in the media and led to a wave of visitors to Znak.com. The number of unique visitors increased by 9% right after the video premiere.
The next day, it was named “video of the day” and aired hourly on a popular national TV channel “Dozhd”. It was also aired hourly on the national TV channel “Channel 5”, and published by the largest news portals. Overall it got 1.8 million views just in three days.
Thanks for the support.
