From Apryl Duncan, About.com GuideJune 3, 2008

Follow me on:

Honda and London's Channel 4 joined forces to create a live skydiving ad. The ad starts with the skydivers jumping out of the plane and then spelling out each letter in "Honda." The live ad broadcast shortly after 8 pm Thursday May 29 on Channel 4 in London. It was shot over Madrid, Spain.

More on the Honda Skydiving Ad:

Tragically, the plane used in the commercial crashed a day after shooting the ad, killing the pilot and a skydiver. Nine skydivers survived with four of them suffering injuries.

Honda did release a statement that reads in part, "No one on the plane was in any way connected to Honda or with the company's advertising shoot."
