Nissan Snowboarding Commercial | Nissan Frontier | CT Nissan Dealer | Gates Nissan

[kalash156]

I clicked the embedded video on Jalopnik and signed in to YouTube just so I can downrate this piece of shit, horrible, stupid, fucking commercial!

[xXBurntBaconXx]

I did the same thing last week using a pogo stick.

[luedriver]

this looks more fake than that video of a Lada Niva doing a flip on the side of a ridge like a skateboarder...

[johnmcll9]

fucking gay

[carsaregood911]

CGI much?

[Robertus1989]

Obviously it is a commercial people....but lets be honest....don't we all wish our trucks could actually do that?

[mastercko]

Chevy actually did a barrel roll (kickflip) in a Sonic. This commercial is terrible. Try actually doing the stunts next time lame-o's.

[pipocal02]

lol, it's like the world can't take a joke anymore. Calm yourselves and have a laugh, it's not meant to be real.... idiots.

[skiing2boarding]

to all of you saying this is lame...this is awesome. get out from behind your computer screens, step into a snowboard or a pair of skis and actually feel what its like to drop 2500 vertical feet on a steep ass slope with fresh snow flying all around you. its amazing and this commercial appeals to people who's lifestyle is like this that need a versatile truck.

[ChristopherBPople]

I used to hate this commercial, then I read the subtitles.

[CrazyLink100]

Neil gtfo

[DMPhotography1995]

I find it funny how this commercial makes everyone mad.. calm the fuck down.. if you actually get mad over a commercial.. then take the dick out of your ass and laugh a little.. enjoy life you fuckin trolls.. instead of complaining about everything

[AkKazu]

The only thing I find funny about this is the captions.

[yourleftnut1]

and idiots gonna try this and kill themselves

[Eduff5664]

How retarded does Nissan think Americans are?? The *worst* truck commercial I've ever seen.

[awb5097]

What is this commercial trying to accomplish? I think I'm going to buy a Nissan Frontier because Nissan ran an ad that told me jack shit about the car. This makes more angry than it should.

[CitadelRunner]

Haters will hate. This commercial is pure genius. Its a beautiful special effect, its funny, its interesting, and its exciting. Im impressed.

[skiing2boarding]

@CitadelRunner i wish i could vote this up an insane amount of times! its an amazing commercial. doesn't just show the truck driving around and states facts. it implies its versatility and go anywhere abilities and gets us skiers and boarders stoked!

[swan142]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IS DIS REAL????

[Slyshooter10]

I laughed on how fake it is.

[kevboslice112]

even though they admit it's fake it shouldn't be allowed to be shown on tv because i'ts fucking idiotic

[entertextimagebelow]

This has to be the lamest fucking commercial I've ever seen and I'm tired of watching it on the web. I came here just to say that.

[TheCaphits]

What really happens: /watch?v=V8W85WjayKQ

[gargamel55]

Wow. Whoever did the special effects for this commercial should be fired.

[nandee1fuery]

Am I the ONLY one who read the disclaimers in the video?!

[ThreeCharlieKilo]

Just Cause 2.

[Jumpingontheboat]

DO A BARREL ROLL!

[mckaykeith]

Fake sorry

[MulberryMurderMafia]

So.. I went to devils ridge and tried this in my frontier, annnd... It didn't quite work out like this..... Infact, I was in a coma for 6 months. Thanks nissan.

[MrRiot179]

What is the whole point in this commercial?

[Categorycinque]

Stupid, stupid commercial! Any details on what this truck can do? Nothing? This is flash and trash.

[SquishyYabor]

If your friend is in a car that's driving down a mountain incredibly fast and then goes twenty yards in the air and does a barrel roll headed straight towards you, is your first reaction to say, "Whoah! Yeah!"

[ab9957]

stupid, instead of showing me a cartoon of what a truck is not supposed to do--why don't you try to sell me a truck, Nissan? I won't be buying a Nissan truck.

[Dekadez]

@ab9957 They will try to sell you one, once the attention-grabbing capabilities of the ad direct you to other sources, like a dealership where a personal salesman will try to persuade you with all kinds of sales promotions. Advertising is only one instrument in an entire array of tools that serve the marketing plan and process of companies. And although advertising has been in a decline, for several reasons, it's still one of the most important instruments out there.

[xXCh0pstixXx]

@ab9957 WORD!

[cat101ism]

i wonder if someone from a third world country comes here and sees this, and believes it lol."we try now !"

[emmatte1]

FAKE!!!!!!!!!

[focusjaydiv]

0:09 "are you getting this" that voice sounds like Mac from Always Sunny

[techfan42]

do not attempt @0:02 LOL

[bigstick9993]

CGI! CGI!

[BetterBuyer]

Nice. Nissan didn't notice GM and Chrysler nearly went out of business and gave up chunks of market share when they started showing faked capabilities of their trucks? Pulling mountains, driving uphill through rockslides....we were not impressed, we didn't buy. I guess Nissan has nothing real to show us. They are not Toyota, they are not Honda.

[Dekadez]

@BetterBuyer You're clueless. As if GM nearly went bankrupt because their ads showed unreal capabilities of their products. Car ads are not about showing the absolute correct use of the car, we all know how cars are. Car ads are about affective reactions, and this one is once again a splendid ad, where the message and the design is congruent with the advertised product, and the corporate image of Nissan as a leader in innovation.

[BetterBuyer]

@Dekadez Meh, Nissan didn't provide a single material reason to buy the truck. It challenged their credibility in a mkt where competition showcases real world capability. This freak show rings a bell with teen-aged boys, none that have $30K to drop on a new pickup truck. Nissan advertising is brutal. "Rocks and Trees" retarded the infiniti brand and dropped them behind Lexus and Acura, now Nissan is holding the door wide open for Mazda. "...Nissan as a leader in innovation". In-snow-fiction.

[GumballProductionzX]

DO A BARREL ROLL!

[G67FTW]

they dont jump? YOU DONT SAY!

[G67FTW]

@G67FTW or do barrel rolls? -_- im sick of watching this on hulu

[SympleLyfe]

cars can do barrel rolls... rob dyrdek did one in a car... it just wasnt a truck... and he was in the air.

[cheromo]

the only part i liked was when the guy tripped at the end

[KainHighwind19]

.. I guess I am the only one who thought it was funny.

car commercials aren't designed to give you the specs and why you should buy it.

Who decides to buy a car based on an ad -_____-

they're designed to grab attention and not much more, so you can research the car yourself later if you're actually interested in a mid-size truck....

[ladyfox825]

.......Its amazing how we have to put warnings on everything nowadays.......but we all know your local idiot is going to try this anyway. LOL!!!

[cali13mexi]

Who ever buys a Nissan just cuz tht commerical is Retarded....what were they thinkin whn they did tht comerical??? Nissan sux tht y they has to fake wat it does!!!

DODGE RAM ALL THE WAY

[drumandfuckingbass]

look at what our truck cannot do! dont you want to buy it? dumbest marketing campaign ever lol.

[LarryBooker3]

If you look at there feet you can see how a green screen is used, the snow is fake.

[bryanhannon125]

That;s not even a barrel roll...

[lazer1million]

WOW! A FLYING TRUCK, I'M GOING TO BUY THREE!

Whats that? It's a Nissan rustbucket, oh, nevermind.

[yankeescorvettes27]

Do not attempt because your truck will break.

[skkygirl]

Hilarious. 

[isthereaname2use]

I don't understand how marketing a truck doing something it can't generates sales. I admit, I did buy the Trojan doodad in order to get my hair coned but that's different.

[waverly24]

One of the most annoying commercials on, I'd rather sit through a Dragon Software commercial sixty times than one more of these Nissan commercials.

[getonthebluebus]

I liked it better when Toyota Tacoma did it in 2004. Way to be original, Chiat.

[daekun117]

@getonthebluebus

My thoughts exactly

[SilentNoise92]

God damn it I hate these commercials. Especially the douche that shouts, "Holy moly man!"

[jchawks08]

This was me and my Nissan Frontier this morning. Snowpocalypse 2012 here in Washington State.

[papapariente]

This truck sucks!

And the comercial worst!!!

Toyota Tacomas started this comercial thread and now other makes trying to copy? Wow, make up something original....

[Soraki]

@papapariente Yea but did they have funny captions? No.

[fezan84]

Gonna try this tomorrow in my car. I'm illiterate, so I couldn't read the messages about not trying it.

[RhoadRacing]

Worst CG ever.

[santran]

HOLEY MOOOLLEEEEY

[akaaccount]

Well, I guess if a Nissan truck will hold up to not doing anything at all in reality, then it must be pretty tough.  I'll take one.

[Pokebob1]

DO A BARREL ROLL!

[smokeyoazz]

@multihotboy2009 ur commercial is fake!!

[smokeyoazz]

I absolutely love this damn commercial! Shit I might give up my full size hemi for... Well maybe not but still this is 1 bad ass commercial! 5 stars baby!!

[fastbreakr]

I hate this fucking comercial

[icarusarmstrong]

Awful. Just plain awful.

[Y0nameisT0BY]

dumb.

[joetomamymon]

"Fantasy. Trucks can't snowboard. Do not attempt."

Later...

"Or do barrel rolls"

[iadmirethehumble]

The point of the commercial was for it to be funny and for it to catch your attention by doing something obviously fake, I think ad's today are stupid I don't buy a company's product because of there commercials if I like the product I'll buy if I don't then I won't regardless how good or how bad there commercials are

[Dekadez]

@iadmirethehumble And how do you guess your liking or not liking is created? By product trial? You used everything before you bought it? Which in itself is an impossibility. Advertising is here to grab attention, both to the company and the brand, and to create positive brand attitudes. The goal of advertising is not to create sales in the short term. Advertising serves communication objectives, not action objectives. People think they know advertising. They don't.

[iadmirethehumble]

@Dekadez That makes sense but what I'm saying is that it takes more then an attention grabbing commercial or a company or brands popularity or even their reputation for me to buy their product. For example some people buy an iPhone because it's popular others because Apple is a great company, I don't care about any of that I don't like the iPhone so I didn't purchase one. A company could never show an ad and if I see their product at a retailer and I like it I would buy it.

[zionpc1]

You know what is the most unbelievable part of this commercial? That anything in Utah would be named Devils Ridge.

[msullivan85]

@zionpc1 Its a shame that there are probably not enough people out there who will get that joke...but that sir, was a good one

[akeemak22]

IS NISSAN THE ONLY COMPANY THAT MAKE'S FAKE COMMERCIAL'S ABOUT WHAT THEIR CAR'S CAN DO?

[Ganton2]

I liked the part when the guy tripped at 0:26

[jameslatta1]

Really? I didn't know that trucks can't snowboard. Well my dreams are crushed

[belizetj]

Nissan trucks are as fake as their commercials. Thats why i bought a Toyota, at least they dont fake their shit.

[MultiHotboy2009]

to all the idiots saying this is fake, its a commercial on you tube so there's no way its fake!!! by the way, i just posted a video of me bench pressing my house while teaching a dolphine to draw graffiti and i dare someone to call it fake!

[TeqneekMusic]

BRRRROOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[L337LYC4N]

They must assume idiots watch their commercials and buy their products if they're putting a warning at the bottom of the screen. -slow clap-

[kyhamoge]

Awesome...I'm gonna buy me a Nissan Frontier!



[StellarSwarmMusic]

I think when people say it's "fake", what they really mean is that Nissan should get their money back for a horrible piece of animation. That, suspending disbelief about the truck's ability perform these actions, it doesn't even appear to adhere to the laws of physics that it hasn't already defied by being impossible. It would take minutes, not seconds, for it to get down the mountain. But hey...it's aimed towards bros, and the bros seem to like it.

[StellarSwarmMusic]

@StellarSwarmMusic Not to mention...why spend an entire commercial specifically showing what your product CANNOT do?

[Phillie103]

DO A BARREL ROLLL!!!!

[edm1820]

i love the people saying fake like they are revealing some sort of secret lol btw, someone should mod the commercial so it explodes on landing.

[phillipmmckeon]

HOLEY MOLEY MAN!

[AlaskanGenius]

Press Z or R twice!

[rockparkoure]

sooo fake

[jerseygirls3]

i love this

[litlleman16]

Do a barrel roll!!!

[ohmss069]

That was stupid and fake. What is the worst is that it was fake looking.

I think I'll buy American instead.

[gregsalter]

@ohmss069 The Frontier is made in Smyrna, Tennessee.

[Blackomegastar440]

@ohmss069 This was fake?! Really? Well gosh golly gee willickers zippity jippity doo, thank goodness you were here to point out the most obvious thing in the entire universe. I mean wow, how did you figure out this was fake? Do you get a cape with super powers like that?

[ohmss069]

@Blackomegastar440 I do what I can. Journey on, capeless underling.

[swaggmonsta123]

Hahahahahaha Wtf??

[tianoynoy0218]

Hmmmmm, wanna know whats next? Nissan frontier crusing the sun. *do not attempt*

[jerseygirls3]

@tianoynoy0218 that would be an awesome commercial

[INGLORIOUSVictorious]

i work as a manager at a cell phone store and im in the back always doing paper work but the tv in the front waiting room is always playing ... i hear this commercial where the guy is going like WOW!!! everyday and im trying to picture what the heck is so amazing?!?! so i run to the tv and see a glimse that shows the nissan frontier commercial - then i come back to my computer to find the commercial and i found it (this video) - LOAD OF ABSOLUTE CRAP.

[acenace24]

I hope someone tries this and dies horribly

[Libraloco73]

What is the point of this idiotic commercial? Let the stupidity of TV continue.

[MrNiCK10111]

no shit its fake, but anyways i was laughing when i saw " Or do barrel rolls. Do not attempt"

[DatDatsun]

WHAT IT DOESNT DO BARREL ROLLS? thats the MAIN reasons why i would even buy a truck

[luccaskunk]

I attempted this and succeeded. Trucks CAN snowboard and they CAN do barrel rolls. I was even filming it. The problem is, I miscalculated how far the jump would launch the truck and it ended up demolishing the camera. Sorry.

[deerek2013]

Lol really now what's next.

[music1001001]

I hate these commercials. I always get the gay feeling when I see them. Terrible acting, terrible animation, all the cliche "amateur cameraman" crap, like it defocusing and refocusing, cheaply added in post. All this on top of shit that makes no sense and has nothing to do with trucks? I dunno what Nissan was thinking.

[TVlandFill]

The fine print underneath is the funniest part, because if it wasnt there somewhere some idiot would try it.

[deebambomb]

The image in the background is from a skier going down a mountain, then an avalanche happened. You can see the skier right behind the truck six seconds in. They used him as a size reference for the animated truck. and that landing is impossible, the axles would have snapped..... I hate this commercial, while Chevrolet and Ford are showing what the truck can really do, Nissan fakes their commercial..

[TheSlimeMachine]

Gravity. But I still can't see how that's real

[09809709879876678698]

this is hillarious

[jd6735]

0:14 "WOW OH HO HO HO HO (my friend's gonna die!!)"

[Andrewtoaster]

Anybody else saw the guy in the orange shirt fall at the end?

[tsurukotsute]

Horribly irresponsible both to science and in false advertising =P

[monkoo20]

Why the fuck would they make this commercial...? So five-year-olds believe it and say, "I WANT THAT TRUCK WHEN I'M OLD ENOUGH!"?

[Enofrappini]

@monkoo20 .....half the people who see this aren't thinking if it's real or not.....

[monkoo20]

@Enofrappini yeah, i can't believe it, either...

[xCrimsonxTidex]

saw this on the oregon vs, wisconsin game,

the caption "or barrel rolls" made my day. rofl

[GunBroker100]

Looks like a law suit waiting to happen. Some yutz will try it and sue when he gets cratered. Kinda like the Pepsi commercial with the Harrier jump jet for a million Pepsi points. Some kid came up with the million and wanted his jet. Pepsi told him it was a joke, it went to court and since they didn't put in a specific disclaimer stating it was a joke, PepsiCo Int. was ordered to provide the jet or mutually agreeable monetary compensation. That was $7 million and all costs.

[JoyBuzer]

now see, if this was a ford, it would do 4 barrel rolls, explosions would be everywhere, hot ladies in bikinis would be dancing at a landing platform, and megan fox would be at the wheel... in a bikini.....

[dawidwlkp]

zajebista reklama!!

[wajang1000]

Guys, let me break it to you gently - it's meant to be fun.....duh. However, if you really want to see what one is like, do the obvious and visit your nearest Nissan dealer and take a test drive on the road.

[MrJtrain14]

this is when you know nissan is struggling to sell trucks.

[3ilataN]

lol guys 0:04 it clearly says "Fantasy. Trucks can't snowboard. Do not attempt." so we get it, it's fake

and they can't do barrel rolls either. what a shame.

[dartmaster99]

That was a cool trick...when Rob Dyrdeck did it for real in a chevy sonic a momth ago. Check out "kickflipping car" and watch the real deal!

[TicoToonice]

Is fake I can tell by the pixels

[SarNarNoma]

This was obviously animated 

[jcwoody516earthlink]

Fake.

[gregsalter]

@jcwoody516earthlink Gee, ya think?

[jcwoody516earthlink]

@gregsalter I was joking

[outlandftw2]

this is to appeal to college students, during college sports commercials, there is gaming humor in this ad. just like the toyota WOW ad. it will sell.

[cjsolx]

This commercial is the last straw for this retarded gay mini-pickup. I officially would not own one if I was paid to.

[InsanePickle1]

@cjsolx for your information since 2004 the Nissan Frontier has been a mid-sized truck thank you for your time and have a wonderful afternoon.

[reidkelly1]

show what the truck can actually do like the Audi commercial

[3SirCrimson3]

Why do you keep making ads showing your trucks doing ridiculous things? Do you think that seeing really bad CGI is going to make me want to buy a Nissan?

[bigrecexec]

that was gay as aids

[Sungetsu15]

Do a Barrel Roll!

[squirrely5024]

if that guy at the end didnt fall, the commercial woulda sucked lol

[WWoodyW]

There wouldn't be axles under that anymore if that was real. Cool Commercial

[xQaZaM]

Like if u saw this on tv while watching Oregon vs Wisconsin.

[obesemustang96]

fake and gay

[fromb2b]

@obesemustang96 No really?

[kudokensei1]

What's the point of this commercial ?

[jasobres]

"Fantasy. Trucks can't snowboard." No shit, Sherlock.

[myychmclromance]

hilarious! hate the truck, love the commercial!

[wm94zxy]

Win

[DevilsAirsoft]

fake

[ReklaMasterCOM]

@DevilsAirsoft captain evidence =)

[fiorilj]

I wanna see it in a half-pipe!

[snodrifter303]

So stupid.

[xDshiv58]

DO A BARREL ROLL!!!!!!!
