VIDEO: Mak vs. A380
Do you think Mak beat the A380? After all the suspense we finally have the video footage of Mak racing the A380. Let's have a look at who the ultimate winner was.
The sport presenter on The Breakfast Stack is no stranger to working out but when it came down to the wire, Mak’s bursting-at-the-seams muscles were no patch on the colossal giant, the A380….but he did come close. Very close!
Mak was no Bryan Habana (who outran the aircraft in a 100 metres sprint last year) but he did put in some highly impressive footwork!
The British Airways A380 touched down for the first time at King Shaka International Airport last week as part of a publicity drive for its new Man Vs Plane contest.
Mak decided to get in on the action and around midday, when the weather cleared up sufficiently, he flexed his muscles and sprinted off against the giant plane.
Take a look at the video footage of Mak racing against the A380:
In the end it, the machine pipped man by a few seconds. But Mak can proudly walk away with the title of: I Raced An A380 And Almost Won!
Well done Mak we are very proud of you!
We managed to snap a few pictures just before the race, take a look.
