Some years back, there was an advertisement for Thumps Up, which had a man standing at a cliff and performing ‘bungee jumping’ just to grab a bottle of Thumps Up from the crates lying in a truck below. A kid after watching this advertisement attempted a similar feat and jumped from the fifth floor of a building in imitation only to fall to his death. Due to this tragic accident, Thumps Up had to withdraw this advertisement.
