LG promotes its HD TVs by convincing people an asteroid has hit earth

LG Chile has promoted the 82-inch Ultra HD TV by convincing unsuspecting job applicants that an asteroid has just hit earth. The stunt appeared in on YouTube earlier this week and has already gathered over two million views.

The video shows the LG team setting up the TVs to appear like windows looking out into a city scene. Interviewees then see the sky turn bright orange while the room begins to shake. As the asteroid hits, all of the interviewees run or hide before being plunged into darkness.
