A fake terrorist attack has panicked guests at the HΓ΄tel du Cap, the five-star luxury hotel frequented by celebrity guests during the Cannes film festival.The βattackβ, which was in fact a stunt by a French internet company, happened yesterday, Friday the 13th. Six men in matching helmets and military-style utility vests approached the hotelβs dock via boat, before one of them began marching up the steps towards frightened guests...
I'm sure it will make them very attractive to their "target" customers... (ultra high net worth individuals love to be subjected to the prospect of terrorism and kidnapping, like everyone else).
I think they might have, er, shot themselves in the foot with this stunt.
