Have you ever heard of the Keel walk? I stumbled upon this video the other day and I couldn’t believe it, so I had to share it with you. It’s an ad for Hugo Boss, with the Hugo Boss boat. Can you imagine standing on the keel of this boat with the chance of a 10.5 tonne boat crashing on top of you? Pretty gutsy I’d say. Here some info I did with a little research:
The boat was designed by Juan Kouyoumdjian, and it is raced by Alex Thomson.
