In the action-packed video, Atwood takes four unsuspecting friends for a drive around Los Angeles and tells them he needs to make a quick stop to pick up his laptop from a friend. When he pulls up to the garage and the door doesn’t open, Atwood accelerates through the door sending the whole thing crashing down on top of them. What Atwood’s friends aren’t aware of is that the door easily breaks away to reveal tens of thousands of toilet paper tubes. The video captures the surprised reactions of his friends and the truly shocking fact that Atwood delivers—there were 66,000 tubes used in the stunt, the number of tubes that Americans use in just over two minutes.

“This stunt with Scott® Tube-Free was a blast to create--from the fast car to the hilarious reaction from my buddies who were riding along. The craziest part of it all is the amount of toilet paper tubes that Americans waste on a daily basis.” said Atwood. “As a dad of two boys, it’s important for me to teach them how little actions, like using toilet paper without the wasteful cardboard tube, helps to take care of the environment.”

Scott® Tube-Free toilet paper is cushiony soft with no wasteful tube to toss at the end, and it has major potential to reduce a portion of the 17 billion toilet paper tubes used each year in the U.S., enough to fill the Empire State Building twice. In addition to the stunt captured in Los Angeles, Atwood will also be producing three additional videos to encourage others to #TossTheTube with him. Each supply of toilet paper tubes for the four stunts, demonstrating the impact tubes have on our world, will be recycled following the video shoot. Recycling efforts will be different for each stunt, depending on where the stunt is taking place.

“The cardboard tube has been an unnecessary part of toilet paper for more than 100 years,” said Ashley Abrahamson, Brand Manager for Scott® Brand. “We hope this eye-catching stunt will bring to life the massive impact of tube usage and encourage consumers to toss the tube.”
