I can't tell whether this video for [Ritter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bitesized-chocolate) Sport featuring a bungee jumping stunt is real or fake, but I do know that it's amazing what people will do for chocolate.

[German chocolate brand Ritter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ritter-sport-presents) recently held a [video content campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skittles-obsessed), and the above video was one of the submissions. For me, it doesn't matter if it was faked or not--what a stunt!

**Implications** - Advertising featuring adventure and risk is one way to make a company stand out. Society is looking for new thrills and one way to sell a product is taking traditional sports and incorporating commodities in a daring fashion. Corporations should consider more daring methods of advertising to monopolize the industry.
