    Of course its fake. IF the helium would be enough to lift him, he would be flying with his legs up in the air. not half tilted forward.

    He is obviously lifted by a crane or something similar.

    It's just an advert for jeans, which brand? I haven't a clue.

    1 liter of helium can lift about 1 gram. You need about 60,000 to 80,000 liters (or a cube 4x4x4 meters) of helium to lift someone.

    The explanation of why its impossible is absolutely correct. You'd need about 54 cubic meters of helium.

    Not to mention the fact that his sweat shirt is unzipped so the helium wouldn't stay in his clothes and, oh yeah, the fact that the gas molecules are so small they would simply permeate though the fabric, but hey, who needs science....

    It's not fake. My jeans blow up like that all the time when I pass gas. 'Cept instead of floating I just try to avoid open flames.
