Shell Oil Private Arctic Launch Party(Oil Spill) FAIL!

This was a private send-off for Shell's arctic rigs (Kulluk and Noble discoverer) at the Seattle Space Needle. The rigs were visible outside the window. Incredibly, there was an obvious malfunction of the model rig that was supposed to pour drinks for guests. -yt

edit: furthermore, random "guard" singles out one person for videoing in a room full of people taking pictures.

Shell money shot.

I like the fact of how clueless she was.

And fuck those security guards who tried to confiscate the camera.

Ugh, I hate hoaxes like this. a) they set you up for disappointment and b) they make the subject matter appear trivial and the perps (and more importantly, the side they align with) petty overgrown teenagers. Lies and fraud are the worst weapons against liars and fraudsters. /rant >> ^Hive13:

Sorry, but it is a hoax:

Doing petty injustices to Shell almost seems to put them in the moral high ground, somewhere back in my lizard brain. This is fail on fail.>> ^hpqp:

This just had the feeling of fakeness to it once the spill started happening, so I was entirely unsurprised to see that it was.

I agree that this is a SHITHOUSE way of trying to 'get' Shell, all you're going to do is make them seem like the victim, well done idiots.

I hate fakes like this, really, really hate them. All they do is make people disbelieve the REAL shit that happens.

Crap and shit, but I upvote the *lies and start to wish I'd made my channel be *hoax or *fraud or *fake so this could go in it, as I'd love to have a collection of videos on videosift that have been found to be fake.

Not that my channel isn't AWESOME you understand, just... you know... throwing it out there for anyone else who needs a channel idea.
