WTF!? That Honda ad with all the car parts moving/falling/etc. was real? (with video)

[BrunoPuntzJones]

I thought some was real and some was CGI but apparently it was all real. Took 606 takes. Holy monkey I had no clue. Just assumed it was pieced together on a p00ter

Story

Amazing

edit: Link to commercial (just select any job, it'll open)

I'm almost certain this is a repost...but that's still pretty cool to hear it was real.

 

[NutBucket]

Yep. A bit hard to believe but it was...

 

[Anubis]

yes

 

[Angrymarshmello]

Is this commercial online?

 

[iamme]

wow, i remember that one. i thought it was all CG too. nice :beer:

 

[rival]

EDIT:

here is the page w/ a link to the commercial and his rant

 

[SaigonK]

That commercial is awesome...if not for the idae of it,. but for the fact that they got someone to sit down...figure out how to do all that and THEN they made it all work...sweeet!

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

Added the video

 

[glen]

someone said a part of it was spliced with a computer.
Which part and where did they read it?

 

[Angrymarshmello]

lol holy $hit that was awesome!! The wagon looks pretty nifty

how does the wheel get bumped up the ramp ? ?

doesn't make sense to me

Yeah that part looks weird. But if you watch it after the camera has moved on they continute to go up the ramp instead of rolling back down. Must have something to help them move up.

It says in the article that they had bolts and stuff inside them that weighed them down and somehow made them go up the ramp.

maybe that part just defies the law of gravity ?

you did realize the first wheel wasn't moving that fast to push the wheels up..
especilly several wheels up.
also if they made it heavier .. it would take much more force to push them up.

From the story you linked, but must nto have read:

At one point three tyres, amazingly, roll uphill. They do so because inside they have been weighted with bolts and screws which have been positioned with fingertip care so that the slightest kiss of kinetic energy pushes them over, onward and, yes, upward.

hmm...

I'm still skeptical, but it's very cool anyway.

That part can't be real, I mean come on... things don't roll uphill like that. It defies the laws of physics.

If you think about it... if they had a very large and heavy bolt that was positioned so that the least bit of force made it tip over... and it was heavy enough to make the tire move like that, then it is possible.

that's not what im getting at..
yes i saw one tire go over.. but did you see the part where it was actually going up the ramp ?
how is that possible ?
am I missing something ?

What is so hard to understand?

the fact that with such low force.. the big tire pushed up 3 little tires up the ramp.
also being weighted would take much greater force to move..

 

[rival]

possibly cuz they are rubber, they almost look like the bounce off eachother as opposed to just pushing one another

Yes, the brain to process logic. The tires were specially weighted...that's all that has to do it.
