Walk on water (Liquid Mountaineering)

Liquid Mountaineering is a new sport which is attempting to achieve what man has tried to do for centuries: walk on water. "Or to be more precise: running on water. We are developing the sport from scratch. By accident we found out that with the right water repellent equipment you can run across bodies of water, just like a stone skimming the surface."

And it helps to have something just under surface of the water.
Back in the day, I remember putting a picnic table in the lake where I was a lifeguard. We stood on it and had our pictures taken. Looked just like we were walking on water.

I believe this is an ad for a water repellant shoe by nike.

@InfinitiMinded
Watch spot in the water where they run before they get there, if you look closely you can see the high spot.

someone should take down this site for helping promote an online hoax, even if its in the name of viral advert..

Well, perhaps this will settle the argument of real vs. fake.

Look at the hats and jackets and sweatshirts they are wearing.  All Hi-Tec apparel.

viral ad, plain and simple.
