NEW DELHI: The curious case of missing monoliths is the latest mystery that has gripped the world. In late November, a team spotted a mysterious monolith in the desert of Utah, USA, which disappeared in a matter of 24 hours. Even though the government institutions did not reveal the details of the exact coordinates of the monolith, hundreds of enthusiasts flocked to the desert to visit the place.

In a matter of weeks, another similar monolith was spotted in Romania near the town of Piatra Neamt, which went missing in just four days. The two monoliths were quite identical in looks but were not examined by historians and scientists till then.

Since then, netizens have been demanding to know - who installed the monoliths in Utah and then in Romania and why did they just disappear in such a short while. Many seem to believe that incident is another one added to list of unsolved mysteries on earth.

While netizens and scientists were busy investigating the matter, brands around the world saw it as a great opportunity to jump in and connect with their audiences with a humorous take on the puzzling mystery. They released social media posts that showcased their products instead of the shiny metallic monolith.

Here are some of the brands that leveraged this trend.
