Check out this Honda UK ad. Apparently it took 605 attempts and cost close to $6 million to do....

Love how the tires accelerate going up the ramp, guess they spent the money on computer graphics...lol

I read a big long article about the making of this one time, and they claim it's all for real. Apparently the wheels are weighted such that they accelerate like that once past the tipping point. Either way, it's damn cool!

Yes, but when your grandparents or parents discover something cool on the net, do you let them know it's old news, or do you make them feel special? :D

I don't think it is computer animation. It looks more like the way the tires were weighted.


P.S. It is old but thanks for bringing it back up. My daughter had never seen it before and she loves it! :D
