  This achievement follows the Lights Out opportunity. The opportunity has a few unnecessary steps which I explain in the video above.
  
  If you have any questions, let me know!

  I did this twice, and it didnt unlock. Do i need to have overheard the opportunity to have it work? is there a particular moment that I need to drop this stuff on his head? Or has it just glitched for me?

  The achievement didn't pop for me first time so I just did the whole process again and it unlocked on the second attempt.

  This is located in the Paris mission "The Showstopper".
  
  There are multiple steps necessary in order to trigger everything, but you should keep in mind that Viktor Novikov will only walk the stage if the fashion designer Sato cannot be found.
  
  The easiest way to accomplish this task is to sneak to the left from the start of the mission, jump over the far gate, use the generator to lure a crew member, and take them out for their disguise. From there go to the fashion preparation room and run the diorama using a coin when Sato is standing nearby. This will stress him out, and he will go for a cigarette. At this point, follow him, take him out and hide his body. Now go to the second floor and you should find a waiter alone in a room. Take him out for his disguise and make sure you don't have a weapon on you. Go to the third floor now, and accept the frisk. At the top of the stairs, find the door to the attic. Follow the attic to find a crowbar in one of the windows, then climb out a window and get on top of the light rig. Wait for Novikov to show up and start walking down the runway at the end of the show. Use the crowbar on the winch to drop the rig and kill him, unlock this.

  The achievement is located in the Paris mission. At the beginning go forward to the left side and jump over the fence in the garden. Distract a crew member with the flood lights generator and subdue him, disguise yourself as a crew member and go inside where the models are prepared for the show.
  
  Here you will find Sebastian Sato in front of a Diorama. Pick up the coin and insert the coin on the back side of the Diorama. Now hide yourself near the dump on the right side and wait for Sato. Subdue him and put his body into the dump. Go upstairs to the second floor and subdue the waiter in the large room and disguise yourself as waiter. Put your weapon on the ground and go in the direction of the third floor staircase. Here you will get frisked but we have no weapons so everything is fine.
  
  In the third floor turn immediately left (closed door) and go to the crowbar location, jump out of the window by the vacuum cleaner and climb up the light rig.
  
  So here is the random part, the Show ends sometimes after 2 minutes but sometimes you wait 10-15 or 20 Minutes until Viktor Novikov comes on the stage. I tested this over 10 hours and found no trigger, so the only thing you can do is wait.
