FOOTBALL LEGEND MICHAEL STRAHAN AND ‘CANADA’S HUMAN FLAG’ DOMINIC LACASSE TEAM UP

FOOTBALL LEGEND MICHAEL STRAHAN AND ‘CANADA’S HUMAN FLAG’ DOMINIC LACASSE TEAM UP TO SET NEW WORLD RECORD


Toronto, ON – Football legend Michael Strahan supported Canadian acrobat Dominic Lacasse on September 27th, 2011 in his attempt to become a Guinness World Records™ holder for the second time. Dominic completed 12 chin-ups in the “Human Flag” position, surpassing the minimum requirement of five to set a world record*.


This ultimate grip challenge kicked off the official launch of Vaseline MEN™ in Canada. Michael Strahan was on hand to show his support for Lacasse and introduce the new line of fast absorbing, non-greasy body and face lotions specially formulated for men to help keep their skin hydrated from head to toe. Lacasse helped demonstrate the benefits of the new products by applying some to his hands just prior to his impressive acrobatic feats.

Michael Strahan also launched his new online video game in Canada that challenges Canadians to get (and keep) a grip. While an impeccable, non-greasy grip is essential for acrobat Dominic Lacasse, this video game helps reinforce the notion that it was also critical throughout Strahan’s 15-year football career.

“No other game requires a good grip as much as football, since you have to hold onto the football to win – and you just can’t do that with greasy skin,” says Michael Strahan. “Vaseline MEN has really scored with this new product line, and the game highlights the lotion’s non-greasy formula while giving guys a chance to do what they love – take on a challenge.”

Vaseline® worked with Strahan to develop the groundbreaking new Vaseline MENTM Keep Your Grip Challenge online video football game that lets men across Canada experience the action of putting their grip to the test. The Keep Your Grip Challenge game features non-stop keep-your-grip action for an experience typical of more sophisticated console games. In the game, Strahan provides encouragement and advice, while challenging Canadians to keep their grip as they attempt to break through the end zone through five levels of non-stop play.

Canadians can take the Keep Your Grip Challenge by visiting www.KeepYourGripChallenge.ca where they will also have the chance to enter to win great football-related prizes.
