GRAND PRIZE WINNER of the 2010 Trend Micro Internet Safety Video Competition

There are two particularly interesting things about the video. The first is that precisely one other person is seen wearing Glass, and it's a fellow sky-diver covered in safety gear. The second is that one of the shots is from the POV of a model on a runway. We suspect that the first fact belies the message of the second: Runway model or no, Google Glass isn't all that great to look at. It's clear that Google is conscious of the fashion implications of a gadget that you wear on your face, and they are trying to position it as a high end item of style. After Sergey Brin jumped out of a zeppelin for I/O, the next place Google debuted the device was New York Fashion Week 2012.
