I was reading about this the other day, my friends said it wouldn't work, and I said it would work, but would be so hard to get right. Anyway, reading the other day, it is real and took something like 602 takes to get right!

This ad is amazing. Simply unbelievable!

(And here I was thinking Honda only made those annoying Civic community ads)

616 takes i beleve and they worked solid for 3 days in paris (no sleep) by the end there were certain people who wernt allowed on certain areas of the set because they were so tired they kept knocking things

they used so many parts in the producing of this ad that they needed 2 articulated lorries to take away all the parts (not imcluding filming equipment

I got my DVD in the post today too!

They have their distribution system down! I'm very impressed.

The DVD is cool... Sugar Hill Gang Music Video is a bonus too!
