Did ‘The Victor’ statue in Pasig just move?

Did The Victor just… move? ????

Yes, you saw that right. The Victor, a 180-ft-tall art installation in Bridgetowne Pasig was caught on video “moving” through computer-generated imagery (CGI). Maybe it just got tired of striking a pose since 2023 and decided to rest and stretch a bit?

This CGI-enhanced video created a buzz across social media platforms, leaving a lot of users puzzled. Some asked, ‘Is somebody controlling Victor?’ or ‘Is this just a glitch in reality?’

Facebook user Yani Andino, amazed just like the others, commented ‘Ang weird! Paano kaya explanation nun?’ (That’s weird! What’s the explanation behind this?)

Well, that perplexing video was just a teaser and there’s more to it! What happened to the statue that can’t be moved?

Thanks to an advertising stunt by GoTyme Bank, we now have the whole story.

What’s been Victor up to?

Turns out, Victor is troubled by an incomplete logo of GoTyme Bank displayed on Giga Tower in Bridgetowne, Pasig City. Unaffected by East Ortigas traffic, he rushed to the building to put on the GoTyme Bank logo and strike a new pose. Victor went from having his fist clenched to raising an open palm toward the sky while standing directly above the GoTyme Bank logo. 

And we all know what an open palm signifies, among other things, a high five! ‘Cheers to 5M GoTymers!’ – that’s what Victor wanted to celebrate all along.
