Behind the Scenes.

Behind the glitz and glam of working at Cricut its all fun and games for our Sales and Marketing Director Martin Kruger. What few may know, Ok who am I kidding, everyone knows he loves making t-shirts and he is a “bok vir sports”.

So when the opportunity arises to have a little fun behind the scenes with Martin we take it. And lets just say we haven’t laughed this much in a long time, and I may have enjoyed it more than everyone else.

Cupid AKA Michelin Man with 23 layered t-shirts Ag no Jow!

One man and 23 T-Shirts all worn at the same time. When the idea was pitched where we keep on adding T-Shirts over each other, and at the end Martin falls over from the weight it sounded like fun. It was fun! until the shirts got smaller and smaller, Martin got bigger and it got hotter inside of all those layers. And when it came to taking off the shirts we needed a very strong Production crew guy to peel back the layers. Exhausted from all his acting skills and personas performed, Martin still had one last BOO inside of him - accompanied by a low down crouch and high jump. Thank you for entertaining the crazy ideas, the crazy t-shirts, the sports, the laughs and above all showing off your acting skills. Now we know what we didn’t knowMartin can act, looks great in pink - but above all he makes a mean t-shirt model!
