"My name is Fernando Ferreira, and I'm from Sao Paulo, Brasil. I recently filmed an advert for Emirates to mark the launch of their new nonstop flight from Dubai to Sao Paulo in which I have to talk about Brasil for 14 hours and 40 minutes (the duration of the flight) without stopping. No breaks, no cuts, no edits, no cheating.
At www.nonstopfernando.com you can watch me talk nonstop for 14 hours and 40 minutes about Brasilian restaurants, literature, Formula 1 drivers, museums, cities, coffee, shopping, culture, music, dancing, soap operas, sumo wrestling, food, cocktails, carnivals, dating, language, architecture, politics, banknotes, holidays, football…."
Admittedly, I'm a bit busy to truth check it, but hey - I'll roll with that.

Thanks a lot for the nice comments. I shall pass them on to the poor bugger who had to actually do it. god bless you Fernando
Love it. I have worked on Emirates and have seen various executions for their "non-stop" propositions. This is the best of the lot. Simple idea that brings a bit of personality to a brand that is usually quite calculating and dry.
