<p>This definitely makes a really cool viral video promoting a water proof line of clothing, shoes and accessories that are supposedly so water repellent that you can literally run on water with them, after some training ofcourse! <img src='http://www.ramble.sunmatrix.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>PS: The video is fake. It's a viral ad for Hi-Tec water-resistant running shoes. <img src='http://www.ramble.sunmatrix.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif' alt=':lol:' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
