On April 11, the American media posted a thrilling video of Kobe. The accompanying text reads, “Twelve years ago today, Kobe skipped a fast-moving Aston Martin sports car and completed the sponsor’s magical ad.”
I saw Kobe seemingly set up the camera, then put on his sneakers, made a tense defensive action, and then stood in the middle of the road and made a gesture to his right. Immediately afterwards, a speeding sports car accelerated and rushed over, Kobe almost jumped on the spot, the sports car just shuttled past him, and Kobe landed steadily. Afterwards, Kobe and his friend clashed and celebrated, and looked at the camera pretentiously, and the luxury car behind him slowly drove back.
Kobe's eyeballs bouncing on the spot is astonishing, which is more incredible than installing a spring. Theoretically speaking, an athlete takes off on the spot and over a galloping car. It is necessary to perfectly integrate the time point of the jump, the height of the jump and the time spent in the air, which is as difficult as climbing. What's more, in 2008, Kobe was the league's top star, at the peak, who would dare him to do such a risky action? In subsequent reports, it was indeed confirmed that this is only the advertising effect of the brand.
And another ad that flies over the snake pool seems to have greater controversy and sensory impact. At the beginning of the video, a large pool was built in the open area, and many snakes were dropped in the pool, which made people scared. Then there were all kinds of cyclists and skateboarders who challenged them and fell into the water one by one, making them embarrassed.
At the last moment, Kobe made his debut. He started and accelerated at a far distance, then stopped abruptly in front of the pool to take off, only to see a dark shadow flashing past, Kobe crossed the ultra-long arc, and scored dunks with both hands. From the distance at the time, Kobe's take-off position was even farther than the free throw line in the NBA. At the same time, Kobe's flying height is average, but he soars several meters like a long jumper, which is surprising. This behavior of getting rid of gravity was finally confirmed. In fact, this is also a way for brand owners to attract people's attention.
In a blink of an eye, 12 years have passed, and no one thought that Kobe, who was only 41 years old, had already passed away. With Kobe's influence, his performance on the court will be passed on forever, but these off-court small stories and small details may be slowly forgotten by history.
