    Indeed!

    Although sadly, they cheated physics in three areas, but the end result is just nifty. :)

    Yah the tires rolling up hill and the muffler continuing to roll was a bit much.

    It wasn't the rolling up hill as much as the very subtle *acceleration* :)

    the muffler also seemed as if it had a lot more mass than it did. :P But still, I love it!

    I think the entire commercial was made on a leaning plane. Otherwise, VERY cool.

    There is one and [i]only[/i] one cheat in that commercial, and that's the rolling muffler--the muffler is CGI.

    Everything else is real.

    The tires were made to roll uphill by adding weights to make them top-heavy.

    It took more than 600 takes to get the sequence to work.

    Damn, then!

    Although that still does count as cheating. :)

    Anyone got a direct download link for the shockwave file? My connection is too slow to handle streaming it.
  • WOW!!! :eek:

    Are you sure the muffler was CG? If it was weighted it might have worked - just like rolling a peanut butter jar across the floor when only one side is scooped out... ...it's a similar idea to the tires rolling up the hill - not CG. Is there a webboard with discusion about this somewhere?
