Why it worked
The video works because it taps into curiosity about extreme wealth and how it can circumvent rules. The intriguing statistic about the owner's income versus the fine creates a 'wow' factor and encourages discussion about privilege and the cost of doing business for the ultra-rich. The visual of the impressive hedge adds to the mystique.
