Spectacular Man Made Sun Brightens up London 2 Hours Early

[treyweeeee]

I thought that this was really amazing and touching seeing that I assumed that this was done for the people and this was some amazing work of art or something then they popped in the damn Tropicana logo and I thought of how absolutely tainted that this whole thing was. Way to kill the mood Tropicana.

[astercartoon]

Quelle bêeeetise! Quel gaspillage !... What a stupid event ! What a waste !

[MagnusThunderstrike]

I'm going to make a conceited effort to NOT buy tropicana after seeing this. Stop trying to be cool.

[forblueskiescm]

anyone know what the song is?x

[jmborr]

such lame music for such a great feat...no?

[WARLOCKakaTROLL]

Epic fail

[HIGHMANJULIUS]

How much did you pay for stumble to show me this?

[cathalk]

While looking for the song, I came across this tweet from TropicanaJuices:

"the song is called 'Smile', but it's just a very good 'stock song' from a library for adverts, short videos, films etc."

[cheesestringz]

RUBBISH...



[FUZiiON213]

ROFL!

[thedesertrose99]

Wow but it didn't lit up the sky

[mheslop]

The Trafalgar Sun: bears as much relationship to the real sun as Tropicana does to freshly squeezed orange juice. Well done Barficana, nice drop of irony!

[JackpotPartyCasino]

Up there with our giant swing ball idea for Nelson's Column. Cost? 200 grand... Maybe just give out a croissant with some juice next time?! Does look pretty, mind!

[ElDavido0490]

Thoughts at the end: Ah you crafty Tropicana....sneaky advertising at its best.

[davidaluis]

lets waste as much energy as posssibe - global warming is a myth

[worldend106]

おっちゃんの表情が素晴らしい！

[axwadd]

fake ??

[macykirby]

Can anyone tell me what song this is?!?!?

IT'S RREEAAALLY good!:D

[ToobCan]

OK.  Let me get this straight. Are we talking about a 100% Naturally Fake Sun?

[Qw3rtypop]

@ToobCan

No, they made a real sun. That right there is the first man made self sustaining fusion reaction.

.__.

[3003nk]

@ToobCan No way did you actually just ask that.

[curriea]

Hey, can anyone tell me what song this is? Thanks!

[CSPoliticsShow]

The man's name was Doctor, correct?

[hquegr]

song ????????

[hquegr]

song ????????

shazam won't return the right one .

[kevinchou0912]

I think this is a great art work although it may seem to be cheap and ugly, but art is about appreciating the value behind this "ugly things" as many have called. To me, this is a nice work, and it warms my heart. I do not know why so many people are hating on this.

[ab11de]

Viral video fail

[toolooloo]

that was so cool....

[Thice854]

Song?



[piracycorporation]

Ugly crane lifts glowing balloon into place, no magic involved. Branded deck chairs bedeck the area.  Bad brandedbedeckery, in fact. Not to mention rip-off of Tate example from years ago. *Sighs*...reaches for own-label juice...

[faultyservice]

Wow, orange coloured disco ball hang up on big ben, how impressive.

[Yous0147]

Lol @ top comment

[camnasty]

Let's hang a yellow Lightbulb up.. and call it a SUN !!!

Genius !

[jeremylew416]

That was stupid.

[mistupisciman]

horrendous... let me take note of the brand, will avoid buying their products from now on.. and, I ask myself.. who authorised this?

[raaraspermana]

anyone know the song???

[vemnox]

Awful

[ProLentz123]

Apparently, British people are very easily impressed.

[guitarheroaddict12]

so the finally harnested the power of the sun but decide to use it for orange juice commercials now thats what I call capitalizm

[Oriedo]

Why would they have something like this in the video even though never the less it's a funny video and it's still a good video.

[HaDxADIO]

Now I really do have a reason as to why I wear my sunglasses at night

[DeletedDolls]

Dr. Otto Octavius finally did it!

[micos77]

Sorry, but the real thing has no parallels...

stop the visual pollution.

[MarkNull]

This is a good use of the worlds precious fossil fuels.

[XxxnolifeXx]

I wanna live there :(

[TheBlackGaruda]

@XxxnolifeXx dont bother london sucks

[wisefulone]

Der derer.

[Goingpostal1000]

Anyone know the song? Or was it made for the commercial?

[mcsteeley]

An orange juice commercial. God I miss youtube...

[tommyAU0]

That was a nice song. Lovely chords.

[MsAnfor]

impressively unimpressive...

[Anaverbano]

Was it really exciting in real? Because when I see the video, I just see a big orange light not really like the sun.

[Ojdaweedmane]

Americans are weird? This was in London??????????

[aowie2]

@Ojdaweedmane Tropicana = American company...

[drownbywords]

Anyone knows the song?

[sijotakane]

Americans are weird.....

[weiss0nicht]

@sijotakane I don't know how that is relevant as a comment under a video shot in London.

[Gangstal0ve]

Tropicana'd everyone.

[RXRXRXRXRTXRXRXRXRXR]

i got duped

[gimmeyootoob]

Underwhelming. The girl with sunglasses...seriously?~!

[bluewhale18]

[naterally1]

Rick Rolled....

[kioshi21]

i thought this was gonna be a vid of a man w/ his pants down on top of Trafalgar Square

[shingabo]

WTF was that ?

[TheStringofdarkness]

FAKE!!!

Since when is Dr. Octopus working in England?

[MrJarvishead]

how much did you pay those pedestrians to act like they were impressed? 

[SonicWings]

@MrJarvishead "how much did you pay those pedestrians to act like they were impressed?" Exactly, like that lady in the taxi who acted SO surprised with wonder in her eyes - and she just happened to be sharing a cab with a camera crew.

[Syeno]

ofcourse is an advertisement... why am i not surprised...

[Coronaextra22]

did chuck norris do this?

[aryan2687]

How is that possibly 30,000 times bigger than a football!?

[MrTictactics]

the sun?? what is this witchcraft? we dont have a sun in England!

[IntricationZ]

I thought Doc Octopus from Spider-man 2 was up to something.

[An4lsax]

Waaaay a big balloon with lights in it.

[Resisted1337]

whats with the dislikes?

[MrJarvishead]

just because its sponspored does not make it any less artistic. stop beiing a rebel just for the sake of being a rebel. geez

[MrJarvishead]

you couldn't just wait 2 hours?

[ElPoeta12]

They're excited about that? Wait until they see the real thing!

[imagination43]

@ElPoeta12 Well it is England, we don't often get to see the sun here lol

[kiewerleraz]

why so many dislikes?

[jdbohdan]

@kiewerleraz It's a commercial

[i3artender]

Its a big lamp....come on.

[NewSchoolJZN2012]

check out our song i promise you'll love it! "Somethin Special"!

[Soulburn1991]

Fail.

[carmenimperial]

thatswhatimtalkingbout-

[MultiFortran]

[ThatSecondDude]

so this amazing man hung up a big light. great.

[macyisacat]

[itcouldb]

I thought this was about Spectacular SpiderMAN

[DAN5HY]

@lafofs

Search youtube "benny hill" and click on first video

[disneylandx123]

Truman show?

[et2brute1]

More lame than a bag of tatter chips...

[fockya]

LOL all for orange juice

[adjb123]

Just wasted my time I coulda make a better video lol

[StevenJazzAcenas]

The Power of the Sun in the palm of my hands -Dr. Octopus

[Lilnka99]

Maybe tropicana funded the great piece of art

[purplefreak7410]

Wait...what?

[TuriiGamer]

Wow!-3

[CDAZTehLemon]

Sunscreen?

[FrumpyShakes]

You say man made sun, I say gigantic 40 watt lightbulb.

[threekill28]

What a waste of lightbulbs

[ryanvlog1]

I smell paid views.

[quigon87yt]

You cheaters R just trying to boost your views with an AD-Vert

That's just Dirty Pool.

Shame on you!

[hockeystard89]

ok

[macroorchidism]

uhhhhhh.....



[subzero831]

Next may be the Starbucks logo :-D

[burninrock24]

End at 0:28

[Lycangelo]

@rockchalky26 good point, this isn't actually art at all!! Ha, just a (poorly disguised) advert. Artists don't need to work for corporations to eat! They just need to be creative artists, people DO recognise creativity, this advert IS NOT. talent

[Lycangelo]

WOW, that's not a waste of electric or disturbing to the nearby residents now is it? Do you need planning permission for something like that or can I drive around England hanging a massive torch shaped like the 'V' on a lorry trailer?

[wahchow07]

IT LOOKED HUGE.. but it was just an orange hanging on a tree!

[KD0IDB]

I like the smile on the old man's face, all I see is joy.

[yellowman88]

wow what a disappointing. Simply Orange is better.

[djtoona]

@yellowman88

Simply Orange = Coca Cola (Minute Maid)

Tropicana = Pepsi



[TheMrjameswhite]

This is why corporations shouldn't support S.O.P.A: FREE ADVERTISEMENT

[Noelitoflow]

i have a song that i want you to listen to. if you can do me the favor please check out my song "My Own Eyes" and leave a comment if you like. please hit the like button also & share it :) thanks have a blessed day

[luvmsiahatethegov]

Finally someone bothered to fix the weather in London

[PokerVT1]

i like cheese

[Serbia310]

Love it!

[skyscraperjim]

What a horrendous waste of energy. The dark of night is part of the natural cycle that has been happening for billions of years and I just don't understand the human desire to banish it. Also, isn't the UK ahead of the rest of the world in light pollution awareness and mitigation?

[Dominicwylai]

When light pollution is getting worse, we start making our own stars?!

[lafofs]

I like the song of this video but can't find it anywhere, nor in my shazam app, does anyone know the title ?? thanks !

[oonparasmies]

waste of time

[rockchalky26]

Funniest part of this...people think its a sun...when really its a lit up orange...Tropicana

[iirfaithless]

I knew there was something utterly inartistic about the lame music and the hideous, cheesy reaction shots of dreary faced Londoners. This is boring and gay, and could easily be done a millions times better with a little thing called 'effort'!

[TheRichjeremy]

Dumb.

[2084028jpo]

very nice

[BrunoTavaresPT]

What music is this???

[dogfoodfilms]

I actually prefer Tropicana to big sun and weepy songs, so the end was an EPIC WIN. Rest was rubbish.

[jordanpearson915]

possibly the biggest anticlimax of my entire day on youtube......fail

[pokanemedia]

They cant even cut out the TROPICANA logo properly at the end. you can see the edges of the image. tut tut

[CooperFBI]

Nice idea, but even in the video you could see the bloody huge crane holding up the 'sun'

[rustymcnally]

Unlike, Tropicana gets its flavour from a perfume thats added later. Its disgusting stuff.

[LikeSoTotallyGay]

TROPICANA SUNGLASSES!!!

[LK2009Restraint]

And to think I was in London in the early hours of this morning, looking at the star lit sky as I drove through. Should've hung around a bit more :). Some adverts are still quite creative these days, but some are, well, uhmmmm.

[mariotaz]

To be honest that sucked.

[saggers59]

Come on guys, at least the 'sun' didn't expose a number of hungover party animals that had vomited on themselves. How pissed would you be if you lived in a flat opposite though?

[dave1231100]

Don't stare at the real sun kids.

[adamb0000]

Started well, finished too quickly and abruptly with horrible tropicana advertising.

[NigelH1316]

@adamb0000 : is that (horrible) Tropicana advertising, or (horrible Tropicana) advertising??

[rak3shpate1]

Club Tropicana, drinks are free, Fun and sunshine - there's enough for everyone.

[Ereubush]

My, did my heart sink when I got to the "part of Tropicana's Brighter Mornings campaign." I guess we can't have art for art's sake in public anymore without a corporate sponsor.

[pxit212]

@Ereubush Why is it such a big deal that it was sponsored by a corporation? So because this one artistic endeavor was sponsored by a corporation we can't have art in public anymore without such a sponsor? What a terribly illogical conclusion. Well done. By the way, look at all of Greyworld's other work. I'm not an artist but they need to eat too. You can't feed someone beauty.

[gpc510]

@Ereubush things cost money.

[MrDreamPipe]

@Ereubush isn't that the truth

[UmmHeyyKid]

@Ereubush Costs money to make. Whoever made it also had to feed them self. EEEVIL IS AFOOT!

[markelliott321]

@Ereubush art cannot exist in a capitalist society. It is kind of a shame

[neversaydie394]

@Ereubush would you rather have no art at all?

[Jalawa]

@Ereubush sorry that some artists can't produce their vision without sponsorship. why don't you just cry about it.

[vygr]

I always sigh when I hear soft music and see people smiling.
