This is why I dont have TV.
Advertisers have been running out of ideas since the 1980's.

I just got done at the gym. They have the televisions set up to 10 or 12 channels. I was very glad I couldnt hear any of them.

Though you never should make a chicken angry, this is an example of someone that did.
Normally, the man would not be able to escape the wrath of the chicken.
Not in ordinary shoes at least.
But alas, the man has Nike Presto.
The man is victorious.

Anyone else see the irony in a chicken chasing the black man? I think Nike is trying to symbolize reverse racism in their ad.

...or not.

It just struck me as odd that they chose a black man and a chicken for this wierd ad.

I wasn't serious about the reverse racism. It was a joke, which is why I threw in the Or not"

I honestly think it is a horrible commercial.

Yeah it is the French guy.

The only problem I have with this gun turret jump was that they cut away and they didn't show his landing 1st time around :(. That would have been great to see land in a single shot :)

Jackie Chan use to jump crazy stuff also but he had some props. Didn't mean he didn't knacker the hell out of himself. In Armour of God he fell from some foods and cracked his head open...

Nice advert.

Thought it was pretty good. Not quite up there with the Geico Caveman commercial though. Still doesn't make me want their product, or for that matter watch very much TV.
