Onde você estava na hora do jogo?

Falar que o país para durante os jogos do Brasil não é novidade.

Já ver como isso ocorre na prática na maior cidade da América Latina é outro papo.

Em compensação nesta hora o brasileiro consegue estar ao menos nos três principais trending topics relacionados ao jogo no Twitter, você participou de algum? Sem xingar alguém?

Para os que falam que só em 2014 teremos uma visão perguntamos: Será? Como sede da Copa?

A short explanation in English:

São Paulo is not only the biggest city in Latin America but is also packed with people all over: The traffic is so regular that no citizen can catch a break during daytime, not even on Sundays.

This “Ghost Town” scenario is a unique view from the city, during Brazil’s final match on the World Cup, where everyone’s eyes got stuck on the TV broadcast.

Our experiment was simply to take motorbike ride over some famous (and crowded) city spots with an onboard camera during the event.

As most people couldn’t afford to miss the game we decided to show what was (not) happening in the outside world at that particular moment.

If you think it will be only possible to register these scenes in 4 years, remember that next World Cup is going to happen in Brazil…so maybe not.
