Why do the people in that advert not flee for their lives?
Does BT often detonate fibre-optic bombs in space? It seems a strange way of laying cables (fnar etc).

Yes, BT detonate a fibre-optic bomb in space every day.
It's that bright yellow thing in the sky that rudely wakes us up every sodding day and doesn't let up 'til early evening.
That's what my nan told me, anyway.
