Richard Branson pulls exciting stunt at the launch of Virgin Mobile in India
March 10, 2008
It is not exaggerating to say, that Richard Bronson lives life as if every moment might be his last. Any chairman, of multi-national companies would prefer to launch their products in a press conference. But Branson is an exception. On Sunday morning, he scaled down, the wall of a five star hotel in South Mumbai like Spiderman, to introduce his mobile service to India.
Arguably this a child’s play for someone who has sailed the Atlantic in the fastest possible time and flown across Pacific in a hot-balloon at speeds of up to 250mph. Branson, who is high on life, when asked by local media why he thrived on risks, replied” I have difficulty in saying no. I don’t have a death wish, I love life, but often by saying yes to the most incredible challenges I learn lot more about myself.
Richard Branson perhaps the most admired brand in Britain further added, India is the most exciting country in the world, and if it were properly ruled, there’s no reason why people should not come out of the poverty rut. It also makes me smile to see Indian companies buying out British companies. To me success is creating something I am proud of.

Got something to say?
I have an idea that would be a useful tool with a GPS devise. Have a education section, so as you are traveling the device with give you a little history lesson on the sites that you pass by. It would be interesting for the business traveler to know the area and what it holds and also great for families traveling on vacation. Just type in the name of the spot you want to know about and it tells you right on you GPS. Like Niagra Falls or the Smoky Mountains. It would be neat.
