SENZ Viral Brings Umbrella on 180 MPH Skydive

If you’ve ever been stuck in Manhattan with the wind blowing and the rain pouring down, you know your umbrella usually breaks around the 12th minute: at the muddy street corner, while a line of taken cabs power down the street.

Broken and defeated by life, you walk a quarter mile for the rain-soaked subway ride.

To both empathize with you and save you, SENZ Umbrella uploaded a would-be viral video showing its umbrellas are tough.

And we mean tough.

Saying “sucks” to bad luck, an open umbrella is thrown out of a plane with a skydiver, only to remain intact when they both hit the ground. The spot is the elemental soul-sister to Will It Blend? — a series of spots about a really hardy blender.

(Thanks core77 for bringing it to our attention.)
