Supermodel Spider-Woman
Sierra Blair-Coyle, nicknamed the ‘Supermodel Spider-Woman’ for her rock climbing abilities, achieved the feat of scaling the 33-story office tower in Songdo, west of Seoul in South Korea last month with nothing more than two of LG’s CordZero vacuum cleaners strapped to her back. LG says its vacuum cleaners created enough suction to support Blair-Coyle’s weight while she climbed toward the roof. “When I first heard about this project, I thought, “Is it even possible?” Now I’m totally inspired by this challenge,” said Blair-Coyle before embarking on the vertical journey. Along with about 30 GoPro cameras, Blair-Coyle began the climb. She made great time, considering that she had to power each suction pad on and off every time she moved.
At around the halfway point in the climb, the vacuums were swapped out for ones with fresh batteries. The CordZero has a battery life of 40 minutes, but no one was taking any chances during the climb. Even with the pause to swap out batteries, and the extra weight of two vacuums, Sierra completed the climb in 30 minutes. “We hoped to draw attention to the innovative technologies that power the appliances we so often take for granted and this project succeeded in doing just that,” said Simon Jeon. If I were LG, this is about the time when I would be telling you not to try this at home. However, seeing as I have no association with LG, I’m actually thinking how amazing it would be to try climbing the side of a building using only the suction power of a vacuum cleaner. “We wanted to demonstrate that today’s vacuum cleaners include sophisticated technologies that can undertake extraordinary challenges and thanks to Sierra, I think the message came through loud and clear,” he said. This is pretty much the dream of every child who ever wanted to be Spiderman. And now, thanks to a new cordless vacuum cleaner, it is time to start fulfilling those dreams.

A blonde was playing Trivial Pursuit one night. It was her turn. She rolled the dice and she landed on science and nature. Her question was, “If you are in a vacuum and someone calls your name, can you hear it?” She thought for a moment and then asked, “Is the vacuum on or off?”
