Globat.com Releases Videos of Human Billboard and Marathon Feast


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 30, 2006 -- Los Angeles-based Globat.com(R), the world leader in Performance Web Hosting(R), today made available the video of the man from Lancaster, PA who had his neck tattooed with the company's logo, and a new video featuring highlights from a Texan family's quest to consume 300 White Castle(R) hamburgers. Both videos document the latest in a series of outrageous stunts from sister site DefyingGravity.com and can be watched for free online at http://www.defyinggravity.com.

The tattoo video stars Robert Reames, a father to three young girls, who had received the tattoo "as a badge of honor" to help support his family. Viewers can clearly see Reames' devotion to his family as he subjects the back of his neck to the unpleasant drill of the tattoo needle.

The White Castle video showcases a family's journey of 900 miles from Texas to Missouri in order to feast on 300 of the famous White Castle sliders. Terri Scott, her daughter, and her boyfriend set out to finish 100 hamburgers each without leaving the White Castle restaurant. Their efforts, and the delighted responses from onlookers, are featured in the video.

Attracting media attention worldwide, Globat.com has recently launched a wave of very unique sponsorships and events, such as a sponsored birth and a tattooed human billboard, under the banner of "Defying Gravity," with the ultimate goal to launch at least one such special event in each of the 50 states. More information about this story can be found at the Defying Gravity Web site (http://www.DefyingGravity.com) or by e-mailing prdept@globat.com. Information about Globat.com and the company's services and Web hosting packages starting at only $6.95 is available at their Web site (http://www.globat.com) or by calling 877-2-GLOBAT.
