Fast Food Delivery by Lamborghini & Ferrari

Food Delivery has become one of the essentials for restaurants all around the world. Then the competition came into the fastest delivery possible. Even to the point where the fast food joints came up with the idea 'within 30 minutes or the food will be free'. Also free home delivery concepts have been floated around. The delivery vehicles used by the restaurants are either 2 wheeler or 4 wheeler. In most countries, a modified two wheeler are used for delivery. The modifications are by adding a storage compartment for safer delivery.

The Australian branch of the American fast food restaurant chain, McDonalds (in Melbourne) has taken delivery to a whole new level by introducing a Lamborghini and a Ferrari F430 Spider. The customer has to place a minimum order of 25 Australian Dollar ( approx. 17 Euros / 21 US Dollars / 6.5 Kuwaiti Dinar / 1350 Indian Rupee) and an additional delivery charge of 4.95 AUD ( approx 3.44 EUR / 4.35 USD / 1.25 KWD / 265 INR). The whole order should be placed over an online system.

Epic Air New Zealand Airline Safety Video

There are a lot of safety videos shows over the flights but in the recent years there has been a lot of creative ideas with regard to showing of safety videos. Truthfully speaking, travelling by Airlines has become somewhat common these days, therefore after the first few flights we do not even look at the safety instructions given by the Cabin crew or even at the monitors. We take it for granted that we are well versed in it. Be it creative ideas either on screen or in choreography of the cabin crews, getting to know the safety instructions have become entertaining.

The video below is of Air New Zealand - Hobbit / Lord of the Rings Style. CLICK HERE for the video (if cannot view below)
