No, Big Ben Was Not Really Dressed Up In A North Face Puffer Jacket [Video]

South African and global news updates with a twist. 2oceansvibe is South Africa’s biggest solely owned online news platform with local and world news updates.

There was a ripple in the fabric of social media this week when the UK fashion brand Shtreetwear posted a photo of Big Ben wearing a yellow The North Face puffer jacket on their X account. The eleven-second clip showed people taking pictures of the historic landmark wearing a big-ass jacket. Amongst the crowd, someone was heard saying, “That’s insane! That’s mad! Definitely get a pic of that.” Pretty cool, right? Of course, it is, except the whole thing was fake.

com/ZnYRn0I282 — Shtreetwear November 9, 2023 X was the first to burst the awed bubble with a community note under the post that simply read: “Video has been altered using CGI. There’s no North Face Campaign post about this.” The party poopers at X also included links to The North Face's official accounts to prove that they did not have an advertising campaign that involved turning Big Ben into a Minion.
