When I saw this I assumed it was done using studio/CGI tricks, but i turns out to be a real stunt. Being able to stand up there is something I doubt I would dare to do, although it's not surprising that a stuntperson can. But still, it's bound to be windy up there (especially as the plane flies by), and when you're holding pretty large placards, how do you not get blown off?

I enjoyed that the 'safety protocols' included blowing her with a leaf blower at ground level.

Still, better to use money this way than sports wash through arsenal.

The production crew did dry runs with the stunt woman and she is fully tethered down (so to speak) at the top of the building. Various behind the scenes videos are on YouTube.
