The story behind the scenes

The reference: The Greek Football Federation approached me with a unique task: to transport the final cup ball for the PAOK - AEK team match at OAKA using a drone. This proved to be a challenging undertaking, as it necessitated intricate calculations involving the ball's weight and precise evaluation of the ropes. The goal was to ensure a flawless delivery to the president, free from any potential mishaps. Through several meticulously executed rehearsals held at the Olympic stadium, we successfully determined that the project could be executed with utmost safety. Detailed guidelines were provided to the individual responsible for retrieving the ball from the drone, minimizing any risk of accidents. The end result was truly exceptional—an awe-inspiring sight of the ball soaring through the air amidst a multitude of onlookers.
