The Best Videos of Vans Landing the Right Side Up
With Damn Daniel scoring a Jay-Z reference, and now a new viral tossing challenge, we’ve decided Vans have taken on guerrilla marketing and they’re very good at it.
The new challenge — which involves people throwing their Vans and marvelling as they land right-side-up — has turned the internet into an even bigger group of tossers, this time armed with flying footwear.
As an excuse to trawl Twitter for stupid videos, we collated the best of the Vans challenge for you below.
