OMG!!!! Brought to you by the same people who can beat Mario 3 in 11 minutes! That should make anyone who has ever built a Rube Goldberg machine feel like a pre-schooler.

that was great...im more of a visual learner anyways, the directions were to hard to deal with. FINALLY i can make my own bowl of those delicious noodles.

Holy shit that went off with out a hitch... I wonder how many times they had to set it up to get it right. Kind of reminds me of this commercial by honda...

This is impressive marketing!!!

There are no computer graphics or digital tricks in the film. Everything you see really happened in real time exactly as you see it. The film took 606 takes. On the first 605 takes, something, usually very minor, didn't work.

They would then have to set the whole thing up again. The crew spent weeks shooting night and day. By the time it was over, they were ready to change professions. The film cost six million dollars and took three months to complete including full engineering of the sequence.

In addition, it's two minutes long so every time Honda airs the film on British television, they're shelling out enough dough to keep any one of us in clover for a lifetime. However, it is fast becoming the most downloaded advertisement in Internet history. Honda executives figure the ad will soon pay for itself simply in "free viewings" (Honda isn't paying a dime to have you watch this commercial!). When the ad was pitched to senior executives, they signed off on it immediately without any hesitation - including the costs.

There are six and only six hand-made Accords in the world. To the horror of Honda engineers, the filmmakers disassembled two of them to make the film.

Everything you see in the film (aside from the walls, floor, ramp, and complete Honda Accord) are parts from those two cars. The voice-over is Garrison Keillor. When the ad was shown to Honda executives, they liked it and commented on how amazing computer graphics have gotten.

They fell off their chairs when they found out it was for real.

Oh. And about those funky windshield wipers. On the new Accords, the windshield wipers have water sensors and are designed to start doing their thing automatically as soon as they become wet. It looks a bit weird in the commercial. Make sure your sound is on.

Neat stuff...

Just like Domino Rally, right guys? Well, that is when everyhing fell down as planned and not 3/4 of the way into building your creation!

WTF on both ends. I would completely believe that Honda commercial was a fabrication, however, as Rob put it, IT IS FROM THE SAME PEOPLE WHO BROUGHT US MARIO 3 IN ELEVEN (11) MINUTES. DIZAMN
