However, instead of using "ordinary" viral, Mini takes it little further but making fun of "Viral" Marketing. At the first half, you will still assume it is a real video, but at the end, all the fake stunts awakes you and you know this is an Ad from Mini. Eventhough you know you get cheated, but in the end, all you have:" OMG, get cheated by Mini" and a smile on your face, ultimately, you thinks that "Mini is Fun" Not any brand could project their image like this, but i think Mini fits well in this.
