LG tricks job applicants with a fake meteor apocalyse to promote new HD TV
THE MAKERS of the 84 inch Ultra HD TV, LG came up with a wheeze to sell their product: show unsuspecting job applicants in Chile a meteor cashing into the planet:
When these unsuspecting individuals entered the office, they were nervous about a job interview, not about the end of the world.

Whether or not the scene was staged, the tagline “Reality, or Ultra Reality?” gets the message across.
This might be scarier:
