Inspired by Christo, the German buisinessman Hans Schalück wrapped his private museum with a giant Germany Flag to support the German soccer team at the World Cup 2010. The flag is about 1000 square meters.
After Germany reached the final round, Schalück was so happy that he thought up and completed this project with the help of his family his employees.
Also, because Schalücks company is producing curtains for stages, this stunt is great idea to promote his own business.
