Unexplained Phenomena: Beastie Boys Mercedes-Benz Affiliations

A year and a half ago, we touched on an important topic concerning Mercedes-Benz and the Beastie Boys.

No Sleep Till Munich

We travel now to a far away land called Munich. Munich is a city in Germany and the capital of Bavaria. It is a magical place where the people who live there communicate with each other in a code we now know to be German, but that’s not even the half of it.

High Five E.V.

Zoom in further to a local skateboard park. Here, we find a few handfuls of regulars attending a High Five event. High Five is a nonprofit organization that builds skate parks for kids who don’t have anywhere to skate in their towns.

There. There he is. Go back. Did you see him? Blue hat. It’s Mike Diamond! Better known as Mike D, lead vocalist and founder of the Beastie Boys, driving around in a navy blue 2017 Mercedes-AMG C63 S Coupe and skating with the locals! Are we in 1980s New York City? No, we are in 2016 Munich.

“Then, while looking for answers, we found more questions…”

Here. Hidden in the back of an Avant/Garde Diaries festival video, talking about something but we can’t really tell what. Is this real life? Is Mike D a time traveler? Does he need our help?! Tune in next time for another installment of Unexplained Phenomena.
