The Making Of Honda Cog

[ticocit111]

Hey it's 3D !!!!!!

F A K E

[joelanderson000]

Im really curious about the way those speakers are mounted. the tires rolling up the ramp make sense, its just weights added in a clever way. but these youtube vids make it hard to see whats going on with those speakers. they dont seem to move properly...

Cheers.

[TheTman202]

this is fake!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheTman202]

this is really boring

[TheAirbusGuy]

@ValyDeVor

SCARE is supposed to be spelled scary, you might need a grammar class.

[beauzuluuluz]

now that we have heard from the experts how its made, lets take one last look, at honda cock

[ChristopherGerencam]

It was a good idea but obviously they made too big of a deal about their accomplished commercial by making a behind the scenes and having people discuss it. Get real.

[jacoblui]

I'm surprised no-one in this "making of" mentioned the Swiss artists FIschli & Weiss, who made a video called "The Way Things Go" in 1987. This is obviously directly inspired by it. I wish they'd give credit!

[wndndrsn]

@jacoblui thanks for that, teaching our son about kinetics and physics...

[j3sog]

most fake commercial Ever!!!!

[bamsb90]

@j3sog There is more than enough evidence presented to show that the commercial is not a CG rendering. You just haven't examined it closely enough so that you can come out of your hole of ignorance.

[kiya46107]

@j3sog That kind of thing is possible... Look up Rube Goldberg Machines. A very, VERY complicated machine to do a REALLY simple task... Like hit a button.

[MellowMadnessRMX]

anyone spot where the 1 and 2 take meets?

[ypoora1]

@MellowMadnessRMX The muffler roll.

[vanderweaver]

that cant be real...the tires going up the hilll....

[RYCHARDSYNYSTER]

@vanderweaver that was iwhat i was gonna comment

[vanderweaver]

@RYCHARDSYNYSTER yea but i lookd it up. they put weights in them so they could do that

[paanisfarhan]

0.25 is fake

[andrew1421l]

@paanisfarhan That's the simplest trick in the book. Science class should have taught you how, bet you weren't listening.

[candyglazed]

@paanisfarhan You're stupid. -.-

[xXGothyMiniXx]

@Pena47 They said in the video that it was done in 2 takes due to size constraints. The entire thing probably could have worked in one take if they had the room to set up such a large Rube Goldberg machine.

[FenBolds]

Audio lag.

[GISMCONFUSE]

i still think its CG

[WhatThePresidentSays]

unlike that nissan commercial that shows bouncing boobs

[ez2animate]

@WhatThePresidentSays I could watch that all day, this shit got boring after the second watch :\

[counkev]

This video is out for such a long time and I barley so it today...

[ShinFish]

many of these ideas is very similar to "The Way Things Go" (a film by Fischli & Weiss).

[Lakilester00]

3:43 lol flamethrower

[rickkmurray]

I'll be damned. It is real (not saying it sucked even if it was CG)...Its not the physics that made me think it was fake it was just the lighting that made it seem CG.

[mosesdigitalguy4341]

@rickkmurray I AGREE

[Skullee09]

the welsh plug....the coil spring on the window....the tires all could have fallen 50 different ways, and the girl in the production team states "mostly real" FAKE

sesame street would never have sunk that low :)

[shukritobi91]

@Skullee09 wow... u obviously never tried anything before...

[SubtitleDave]

0:24 wtf? its not real

[petey815]

@SubtitleDave weights in the top of the tire

[Pete8497]

I agree, that part is computer generated, there is no wiring at all to them, and they are just going into the ground! It also looks very computer generated...

[naruto12299]

Imagine being the cameraman who at the end says, " Oops, forgot to take the lens off."

[JARMOPOWER]

@naruto12299 *lens cap

[urseautodealer]

thnk u fr da upload!!!

[dizzybone2000]

obviously not all real...the speakers and the dashboard cry out CGI because real speakers do not move like that..it's a cleverly hidden fake though

[KoutetsuTenshin]

@dizzybone2000 have you ever seen a car speaker turned up loud? that shit is bangin, you have no idea what you're talking about

[SoCry3TearsForMe]

@dizzybone2000 you've obviously never been in a car with nice speaker systems then, my car if i crank it up you can feel the vibrations from the bass

[highvoltagefeathers]

@SoCry3TearsForMe speakers don't move that way. they don't sit on top of a pole and bounce up and down.

[SoCry3TearsForMe]

@highvoltagefeathers ugh ya they put the speakers on top of the poles to get them closer to the glass to cause vibration and yea subwuffers do move if the volume is loud enough, again, kno what it is your talking about. And just because i kno ur gunna say something else about them notice how only the big ones (the subwuffers) bounce, the others do not because there frequency of the wave lengths arent strong enough.

[highvoltagefeathers]

@SoCry3TearsForMe okay. do the subwoofers in a car bounce in and out of the mount? no. the cone of the subwoofer is the only part of the speakers that move. On top of that CG pole, the subwoofers themselves are bouncing around. that doesn't happen. what stock do you have in proving that this video is completely free of CG? you must have no life like me. your no car audio expert, and nither am I, I just happen to have an IQ greater than my age.

[ethositachi]

@highvoltagefeathers

Speakers vibrate the air. From Newton's third law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction, i.e. the speaker must also vibrate. Place the speakers on a pole as shown (they have a "spring" like mechanism to allow the speakers to vibrate up and down) and they will vibrate.

The reason the speakers in your stereo don't appear to vibrate is because the speaker housing is designed to be very heavy so the reaction only produces a small movement.

The more you know.

[highvoltagefeathers]

@ethositachi I understand that the audio from the car speakers are more than eanough to vibrate the glass. I'm just saying that the cone is the only part of a subwoofer that moves. its not like the entire body of the subwoofer bounces up and down in a car. I'm not saying its impossible that they have the subs on top of a spring-mechanism, I'm just saying that the movement and conspicuous lack of wiring accrossed the floor makes the scene look very computer generated.

[ewievissers]

@highvoltagefeathers Of course the speaker itself doesn't move in your car, because the speakers aren't strong enough to move your whole car, that's what the speakers are mounted to.

[PoliteCheese1414]

@dizzybone2000 if you have quality speakers it will.

[ichadnroll]

tuh pembuatannya aja sampe beberapa kali percobaan pantes aja lama bikinnya sampe berbulan2 :D

[windrha24]

grreeaattttttt job!!!!

[bribria098]

yes if the weight is properly weighted it could and can go up the ramp...

[qwertychuckman]

I hate tht ad. its bull. there so many little tricks they use that make it a lot less amazing then everybody thinks it is. it really isnt tht cool

[nagamarky]

@qwertychuckman "I hate tht ad. its bull. there so many little tricks they use that make it a lot less amazing then everybody thinks it is. it really isnt tht cool"

Then close the damn video and go somewhere else.

[Fantageous]

It almost looks like computer animation. If I hadn't already known, I'd say Pixar did this. I love this ad. The sound effects do it for me.

[BigTimage]

@Fantageous Speaking of which, Pixar has come so far from Toy Story ten years ago. I'm proud of them.

[ElJorro]

I thought it was CGI

[InterplayDesigns]

Comment Remo- fuk this...you cant cut me off youtube...why didn't they just make it CGI? It'll looks the same....

[Broons2112Bane]

@InterplayDesigns Cause thats gay! Anyone could do CGI, but they thought up a better idea!

[Pivotoverbeing]

These guys were given two cars and told to make a commercial so they took it apart and made a rube. Genius. Why can't I do that?

[TheRealEric31415]

i loved this show, what chanel is it on now???

[BinaryPhoenix]

LOL it would take much less money just to make it cg. and it would look even better

[bbofun]

@BinaryPhoenix And then it wouldn't be real, and it would be stupid. Like you.

[cynoj1988]

@bbofun lol :D ...nice one :D

[lpd830]

@bbofun But then you would prove yourself as a dumb***

[TimMc333]

It's called a Rube Goldberg machine.

[YouThriveOnHysteria]

@YouThriveOnHysteria Comment removed

[weflylow2183]

The parts that i dont believe are the nails and the speakers

[ShadowWalkerWolf33]

@weflylow2183 take a nail and role it down a slant like that and you will get it..and the speakers..cant you see that they are shaking from the vibrations them self, why wouldn't something so close to it be knocked off balance?

[HCkev]

@weflylow2183 I have good speakers in my car and the rear-view mirror shakes when music is playing(I don't have any subwoofer, only 2 small 4" and 2 6.5" speakers). So a windshield placed directly in front of 16 speakers will surely shake...

[scyduckzard2007]

i love the sound the exhaust pipes make....i wonder what note that is

[porousorifice]

@scyduckzard2007 C sharp

[Dnlkk94]

@scyduckzard2007 It is G Sharp.

[Awhitespot]

Swift you fail.

[UnitedStarMinds]

Crazy "intelligent ad". This is heARTificial Intelligence in Action! The same invisible Force Einstein, Newton, Tesla & many philosophers spoke of.

The ad presents EVERYTHING in the Universe is "connected" even every process in producing the car and "parts" of a car which are atoms! To go even deeper into the "meaning" WHO THOUGHT of the ideas that created the parts that make up the car? Those "energies" have their "imprints" on this car.

Think On That and Awaken to WHO YOU REALLY ARE!

[XCRunner88]

@UnitedStarMinds Haha...what the fuck are you talking about?

[Raphael2573]

@UnitedStarMinds What?

[SiegfriedZ]

@UnitedStarMinds thats profound buddy

[Razgriz2118]

Geez that must've been fustrating to make. I wouldn't try to do that at all. Pretty cool stuff.

And I don't get how people think this is fake. Tires rolling uphill? They're weighted. Can't understand? Look it up.

[Maesan89]

Brava!

[jcfandago]

i ♥ japan!

[xkflash]

it still makes no sense about the speakers....speakers do not move like that! that's what throws me off

[NthroSptn]

@xkflash Look at any large speaker with the volume up, they bounce.

[postjewism]

@xkflash Wow you are a moron. Look at any speakers that have the volume turned up...THEY MOVE!!!

[xkflash]

@postjewism haha omg.....they don't move on a stick in the first place....and secondly....NO speaker moves like that.....even the best commercially available subwoofer doesn't move like that. only the cone (i think the word is) is supposed to move...not the ACTUAL speaker, retard

[EhMiles]

fake

[virokill132]

all i want to k now is how to make tires roll uphill

[poppinfresh101]

@virokill132

VTEC

[MateoJH]

@virokill132 put weights in them

[gizmofreakshow]

Ownage

[ThePaperPress]

a majority of those thing didn't follow physics laws at all. thing don't stop and then accelerate. It's not logical at all.

[MattJones1418]

or u are dumb

[ThePaperPress]

whatever, oh by the way, calling me dumb is actually saying I'm deaf, get a better insult please.

[MattJones1418]

who are you, sarah palin? where you think when people call people retarded they are referring to the disease. this just proves you're dumb.

[ThePaperPress]

still not offended

[Requiredghr18]

@ThePaperPress name one part

[ThePaperPress]

well let's see, once the tire stopped and hit the other tire, it paused and then started to acclerate

[Requiredghr18]

@ThePaperPress soo u dont believe that the tires were weighted?

[ThePaperPress]

no not really, it doesn't seem like that could happen

[CmanCorporations]

i'm pretty sure the tyre's are not the standard everyday tyre's..

i'm sure the engineers probably weighted them or something..

but who cares.. that was the only iffy part.. i loved the rain sensor part the best!

[Martyboy2k6]

most people dont realise every wheel and tyre has weights on them :) go check your car's :P

[sn81]

Yes. But those weights are for balancing the wheel because the manufacturing process is not perfect. If your wheels had such a radial mass imbalance as to make them roll uphill, you would feel like you were driving a kangaroo rather than driving a car.

[andrewsk8board14]

yeah way too literal,, obviously there arent weights in the tires on the real cars,, just in the ones for the commercial

[mackdaddy915]

there are weights on tires. go to your car are what ever vehical and look at the rims you will see a weight on the rime of the tire. i would know i have change a lot of tires in autoshop.

[banddude121]

@andrewsk8board14 There are weights on tires. Go to your car and look at the rims.

[wweHardyBoyz17]

ok for everyone viewing this 4 tha 1st time, this video used two real hunda accords, NO computer images, and took606 takes to mak this! If you guys r gonna be soo credical i like to see you guys do this all by YOURSELF w/ No COMPUTERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

research it if u don't believe me b/cause its real all tha facts i stated!

[Littledude514]

@wweHardyBoyz17 I believe you. The process was just amazing. When I saw this for the first time in my marketing class, and I was told that there is no CG, it WOWED me!

[ThePaperPress]

we couldn't do it with out the computer, that's the point

[slackdave]

I don't care if they made a "Making off" video. It's still CG to me. ....and this video is a travesty or whatever the word is. 6 to 7 years!

And it took me about 600 tries to freeze the frame at 4:43 to see that it says "AD persuasion"

naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah'm not buying it!

[randywinchester2]

Look up The Way Things Go Fischli and Weiss on YouTube and Wikipedia.

There are only a couple short excerpts on YouTube. It was done in 1987 and includes things blowing up and burning. The Honda ad doesn't credit them, but it blatantly ripped off a lot of their work.

[dsimek]

except tires don't roll uphill....

[cyborgtroy]

@dsimek: I guess they could have been unbalanced, maybe with weights glued on or something.

It's still weird as hell. It all looks like CGI.

[richboyfred]

@dsimek It's a little something called momentum and the transfer of energy.

[dsimek]

i took physics in university. See there's this awesome force called gravity that hinders upward movement. A tire bumping into other tires isn't enough for it to roll up hill.

[21Rushisaband12]

wow your stupid, there is a weight on the inside of the tire that is at the very top, perfectly balanced, when the tire gets bumped into, the weight is heavy enough to pull the tire up once the weight is knocked of balance towards the ramp... good one

[zeddy2961]

*you're

[garcondebanane]

That, sir sounds about right to me.

[MaximusLive123]

@21Rushisaband12

Wow...nice explanation...... Thanks!!

[EaAddict360]

@21Rushisaband12 I tried really hard to figure it out. I knew it was possible, but my mind wasn't capable of figuring that out on my own. I feel incredibly stupid now, but I learned something....

[davefest1]

@21Rushisaband12 Wow, you suck.

[davefest1]

@21Rushisaband12 Ignore that last one--someone got to the keyboard who shouldn't have.

[zachary1215]

@21Rushisaband12 When you call someone stupid, spell it right.

[21Rushisaband12]

@zachary1215 wow.... just wow

[EXXC0MN]

you think too laterally

[Rittich]

@dsimek I can't believe somebody of your inferior intelligence made it to university.

[sn81]

dsimek is right. and the initial collision would transfer momentum and cause movement, yes; but if you watch the vid carefully, each wheel *accelerates* after the impact, uphill! the wheels must have been at unstable equilibrium: possibly some weight attached to them that we cannot see from the camera angle?

[richboyfred]

@sn81 It's probably slightly heavier at the top, then, as it only makes two revolutions.

[Alex123McCarthy]

@sn81 it is computer animated, sorry but the wheel did roll uphill becouse it isnt real

[mrhonda1]

If a weight is properly placed it is possible to make a wheel roll up hill.

[galaxy514065]

@mrhonda1 YES THATS WHY PEOPLE ARE TO STUPID TO RELIZE SO THEY WONT THINK STIRATE LIKE DUMMASSES

[Razear]

How old is this commercial?

[ihavethebestusername]

Not sure but I remember seeing it on ebaumsworld way back in 2003

[OldTimeyJunk]

how do the wheels move up?

[ToriiHunterFan]

there are counter-weights in the tires that, when re-positioned by the force of the bump, try and self-correct and cause them to roll up hill :)

[ToriiHunterFan]

if you look closely, you can see them rolling back and forth, slowly back to their original position.

[maxibaer]

thanks a lot for the upload! I was totally sure it was all animation. Man.. what a bunch of freaks, with a lot of patience :-)

[lasse77777]

5:56 "Lets take one last look at Honda c#%&"

Nice going, mr. funny voice.

[moldylemoninc]

Nothing but wow

[screamingatamall]

Look up "The Way Things Go" from two swiss artists in the 80's. It's just a rip off of that. No big deal.

[Rittich]

@screamingatamall So any rube goldberg machine ever is exactly the same? Oh and 'The Way Things Go' is not by any means the first of its kind.

[screamingatamall]

@Rittich Rube Goldberg was the first person to make these kinds of ideas popular in print. "The Way Things Go" is the first popular video to actually perform the ideas (that I know of). Which is why this commercial even use a lot of the exact same techniques as TWTG, such as the tires going uphill. If you can show me a video of something that predates "The Way Things Go" I'd be very surprised. It's the same concept and aesthetic, just adapted for advertising purposes.

[camrae7]

actually 606 no cg and 6 million dollars

[Jourell1]

Damn.... i bet the people in the studio must have been biting their tongue at the end of the two successful takes to prevent their yells from ruining the shot. 605 takes... oy.

[tsssallidoo]

oh wat a feeling toyota

[Sirenhound]

The tyres clearly have weights in them, probably the type of wheel weights that they use when you get your wheel balancing done at the mechanics (only a lot more of them) If they were faking it, then why on earth would they have tyres rolling up an upward slope? That'd be just asking for trouble

[TheCritique666]

This must have been frustrating to make. I would've given up and done something simple. I congratulate Honda and whoever helped make this.

[JEm3500]

600 takes?! woah!

[RoLLWithITOasis1]

This advert really sums up the Honda motto:

The Power of Dreams

[elliexx242]

amazing. go england!

[Eijhfrd]

so how did they get the tires to go up the slant

[playmorewithclaymore]

they weighted the inside of the wheel at specific points

[ddawg2396]

they put weights in special positions in the tire

[theSCrandoms]

They puts nails and stuff on the inside of the tires and they also go up the hill because of momentum. Energy transfers from one tire to another.

[shutyourmouth2]

The momentum is not enough to carry it up the slope. The first tire on the ramp would have gone partway up, but if it was purely momentum carrying it, no weights, it may not have made it to the next wheel. With a slope at that angle, and something as heavy as a wheel, gravity would have quickly pulled the wheels DOWN the ramp. The momentum was only used to shift the weights a little, but after that initial nudge, the weights did all the work.

[livininfast4ward]

the tires were wheighted on top so when slight movent gravity pulled down and up

[kladivous]

As the weight shifts forward of TDC gravity would have greater leverage on the axis. Therefore, each tire would accelerate for 90 degrees of it's rotation, then decelerate as the weight reached the bottom. Just think: it would be easiest for you to hold a weight either hanging or over your head. You have to work much harder to hold it straight out in front of you because gravity would have leverage on your arm.

[Rendfather]

the tires are weighted. and yes its spelled tire.

[TheRigga]

@Rendfather

Tire and tyre is both right. It just depends which English you're using. Tire is UK English and tyre is US English.

[Rendfather]

Oh well I didn't know that. But you have it backwards I believe, because I leave in US and everywhere I see it, is spelled tire. I think tyre is the UK spelling.

[beatyourfacecrew]

Reverse what you said

[1484me]

tyre is uk

[smpman100]

then why do i spell "tire" as so does my whole school...and i live in america

[noaanhc]

The US and British ways of spelling words different is just a cutural thing.

Here is an few examples for you, Americans write a check the Brits spell that word the french way,cheque,

American say the word harbor while the Brits will spell that harbour

As i said it  a cutural thing.

[knoxarama]

well, no, actually english and american are different lanuages, just very slightly apart. But they're so close together that they aren't recognized as different languages and only are evident in pronounciation, some spelling and some grammer.

[GGov86]

I think you mean "grammar".

[philhudson1991]

wrong its tyre
