Default A Great Honda Advertisement

This is an amazing Honda advertisement done for the British market:

Honda Ad

There are no special effects or computer graphics. The sequence was shot in "real time". This finished product was the 606th take.

Enjoy!

the general public in the US has too short of an attention span to appreciate an ad that long...that and I don't think the accord wagon is sold here right now.
Yea, good point. I only watched the beginning and remembered the ad ... forgot it was for the Accord Wagon.

they say it is because there are weights inside the wheels and they are balanced just right so that when they get tapped, the weights pull the wheels forward as the weights make the wheel try to re-balance itself.

Fantastic - first time I have seen it and I love it. I don't care what they fudged to pull it off - the end result is classic Rube Goldberg.
