Las Vegas to be exact. Hmmm...a show involving dangerous stunts of incredible dexterity will conclude in America's gambling capital. Surely I'll be able to place a wager or two?

While the short film itself is still slated for an early May release, Infiniti was good enough to release the 'making-of' video seen shown above.(br /)(br /)It's your typical hype piece but it's actually pretty well done. It may seem like a lot of buzz for such a short final product, but we're still excited to see what they churn out. Enjoy!
