‘Flying People’ Stun New Yorkers to Promote New Movie ‘Chronicle’

[Jazzy]

Ads for 1978's Superman: The Movie proclaimed You'll believe a man can fly. This past weekend, a very different kind of promotion for a new superhero film actually did convince some New Yorkers that human beings had taken to the skies.



What looked to be three people were spotted flying around the skies of lower Manhattan last Friday, causing a lot of double-takes and dropped jaws from onlookers. But while it appeared to be a sight straight out of a comic book, it was actually a clever bit of viral marketing for this week's upcoming film Chronicle. Those aren't people in the air, but some very intricately designed radio-controlled airplanes. Watch the video of their flight:

Question: Are any of you planning on seeing this movie?
