Why?

Because people are heavy. There is only so much that surface tension can achieve. I call BS tbh.

Don't forget to buy your Hi-Tec shoes.

Somehow funny they always fall in the water at the same spot. Obviously something under the water and this is complete BS.

Yeah, ignoring anything else the style instantly screams viral marketing.

Hi-Tec sales up 50%. Mission accomplished.

Cars are heavy too and also leaning on small surfaces ( tyres), yet we've seen cars driving over water due to the speed ( in top gear for example).

because cars are quite bouyant until they eventually fill with water

No, the only thing touching the water were the tyres, they were going so fast that they were bouncing on the water.

True but a human would have to run at about twice the speed of an Olympic sprinter to manage to walk/run on water.

You know it's just an advert for the shoes right?

The one with the ArtiK trucks? where they have extra wide and specially designed tyres?

do you think a bog standard Morris Minor would be able to skim water?

Is Hi-Tec cool now?
