A publicity stunt and world-record attempt by beverage behemoth Snapple went horribly wrong on Tuesday, resulting in Manhattan's Union Square being flooded with sticky, sweet, strawberry-kiwi flavoured goo.
Snapple had been attempting to break the world record for the world's largest popsicle, but found that doing so in summer weather meant the giant ice pop melted much more quickly than they had anticipated.
"What was unsettling was that the fluid just kept coming," Stuart Claxton of the Guinness Book of World Records told the Daily News. "It was quite a lot of fluid."
Sounds like my last date.
