Kit Kat flies high to support Felix Baumgartner

JWT London created a brand activation by sending four fingers of Kit Kat to Felix Baumgartner and his team as a fun break late last week as they waited to set the world record for the highest free-fall from the edge of space.

The confectionery brand started its ascent, dubbed 'Break from Gravity' from Cambridgeshire (UK) at 11.20am, rising to a height of 35.5 km. Camera footage, which tracked the chocolate's ascent and descent, was shared via the brand's social media channels.
