  • probably the only commecial they ever made that actually well be well remembered not just as a commecial but as an experience.

  • 2:03 look at that lens!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • MY EYES!!!!!

  • you scumbags copied this idea from artists sandy plotnikoff and lucy pullens 1996 ball bounce performance in halifax nova scotia. sony liars and polluters!!!!! scum! scumbag advertisers off with your heads!!!!! what about the pollution??! sony doesnt care about pollution no kidding

  • @Eli001Langer

    you said that in the other video.

    massage THEM about it. not people on youtube.

  • @Eli001Langer

    Calm down. Artists have always copied from eachother, and all artists know this.

    Even your own character and opnions are just a reflection of other peoples opinions.

    Calm down.

  • Interesting video, but it looks awful in 240p

  • The people living on that street would be tripping balls. Literally they would be falling over them for months! You know that now matter how hard they try, the clean up team would never get them all.

  • Looks like it was a ton of fun... wish I'd been there to see it. XD

  • I wonder if people still find left over bouncy balls around there xD

  • "This is about connecting with people emotionally." Not really, you just want to launch 50'000 balls down a downhill street :D

  • @FlopsyDiggins 170,000. :D

  • Amazing.

  • 1:52 that's what she said

  • Cheaper than hiring actors...

  • The song in this video is Everything is Alright, by Four Tet

  • THATS MY HOUSE!!!!

  • Someone knows the name of the song?

  • @LickingJuicy "Heartbeats" by Jose Gonzales.

  • @patheher Yes i know that. What i mean is the song in the beginning

  • sounds just like the apple commercials

  • These marketing people talk so much bullshit

  • Now i see the realtime version, I dont want to dance around them as they fall

  • love this ad

  • Would like to be the person cleaning the balls up lmao

  • total mayhem !

  • Ah great, an interesting documentary about how they made a great vide.... BUY A SONY TELEVISION YOU CUNT

  • Quality .like no other

  • I tought it was Computer graphics, 3d stuff ...wow

  • inspite of often very dramatic and incredible results, people who work in commercial film production are perhaps the most annoying people on earth. they are all egomaniac, talkative, self centred assholes that sniff mountains of blow to stay awake all night. and i'm not talking out my ass, i've worked on more productions than most PA's.

    oh, jose gonzales is amazing.

  • The music is jose Gonzales cover version of 'Heartbeats' by The Knife

  • Muito bom!

  • I love how that guy's sitting with a riot shield! Actually, I love how much anarchy the balls cause!

  • 2:18

    HOLY SHIT. I love that sound they make.

  • i would love to be at the bottom of that with one of those shields.......

  • It's all about the balls.

  • They didn't close the street below?

  • ~"if everyone associates Sony TVs with brilliant color ... great success"~

    ..because you shot some creative film? Who cares if Sony TVs actually have better color, it's all about making people think they do, with some unrelated footage of rubber balls. Advertising... D:

    Is a cool bit of footage though

  • The music is Jose Gonzales "Heartbeats"

  • 250x140 pixels? 220 kB/s? What is this supposed to look like?

    however, nice to see how it's done...

  • i want to run down the street with those things chasing me

  • YES, I got the 1337'th like.

    Hooray for memes.

  • It's all about the balls... As always...

  • i think it was better with toalett papers xDxD

  • i'm planning to do this for a senior prank

  • does anyone know the music at the beginning?

  • It's like no other REIGN OF DEATH!!!!!!!

  • It was such a good advertisement, so amuzing that nobody noticed it was from Sony :D

  • Ciekawe kto to sprzątał :D:D

  • the most wonderful commercial EVER!!!

  • I like it when he says "It's all about the balls"

  • oh he has a shield so the balls cant hurt him!

    fuckin gay

  • Does someone else have strange thoughts when they say balls?

  • miłego zbierania kulek hehe

  • if there is a hell then advertisment folks will definitely get there.

    wasting all that time, power, energy, resources, and humans time to ADVERTISE some shit that is like any other shit around which is in no way the state of art tech human race has... that's just evil.

    but it's profitable and that's all human race is about right now.

    profit.

    fuck advertising.

  • @utar88utar and you the consumer, who wasted your time to watch the advertisement is just aiding in the process.

  • @beastman101 your comment is totaly useless. shame :/

  • @utar88utar Dude advertising is a wonderful creative outlet for many people. I don't get why you have so much hatred for them. This is a beautiful film in it's own, who cares if a logo is at the end of it. They financed it and created something nobody else had.

  • @jessetarnoff since ALL our problems are technical it means that advertising of stuff that aint top-notch tech humanity already poses or showing some bullshit that will broke within 6 months or will be obsolete in 3 months is , in fact, relevant.

    adv. is a propaganda, nothing else. wasting billions of dollars, man power and time each year and ppl still believe that it's 'a job'.

    it's a bullshit and if you cant understand that then... well...

  • @utar88utar Well, may I ask what you do for a living? Because im pretty sure every occupation uses some form of technology..

  • @Onlyyoshi ...and your point it?

  • its like a colorful rain of bouncy destruction

  • 250 000 ball made by hands of Chinese 10 yo kids for 0,5 cent per hour thats fu**g GREAT !!!

  • @v4ult

    hahaha

    best comment ever

  • @Zuberzuber

    tez mi sie podoba ;p

    but that's a fuc**g truth!!!

  • oh!! god my caaaar!!!!! lol

  • these people are such assholes. "hey, let's throw 170,000 balls down 45 degree angle streets. at peoples property and cars. they'll love it". the ad industry: ignorant presumptuous hacks. "oh, and let's use a shitty cover of heartbeats, by the knife. that'll sell it"

  • i want them all

  • Que bien!!!!!!! Espectacular! Me encantan las bouncy balls!!!!!!!!! Wow, Sony la saco del estadio con este comercial!!!!!!!!!!! Wow!

  • Looks like it was a gas making this commercial........-)

  • I wonder whose idea they stole for this one

  • so this is all about balls

  • I love the simple idea of this ad.

  • 2:14 LMFA at the sound he makes as hes running after the ball XD

  • 2:16 LOL :D:D:D

  • children will be finding lost balls for years :P

  • i love it its really nice soothing music then behind the scenes... bang bang bang bang all the bouncy balls hitting the cars and windows and all the car alarms lol :)

  • Comment removed

  • how u know that?

  • When I was watching the commercial I was like: "wow thats beautiful...must be animated, or is it? It can't be real....or can it ? Nooo, everything's animated nowadays..." Then I glanced at the title of this video,and have now watched the whole thing, I was pleasantly surprised :) It's true that there's some extra soul factor about it being real. This actually happened for real, not "just" an animation at a studio.

  • @teiknimyndir Same here, just wow, it was real! :)

  • where is this place ? (Street)

  • who's gonna clean this mess up now!!!!

  • Me :V

  • 1:25 ... what kind of hairdo is that??

  • lol cameramen look like they have riot shields

    "When Bouncy Balls Attack"

  • Lol i love how at 5:02 instead of music you just hear nothing but noisy bumping balls

  • @CMCZeo

    And car alarms ^_^

    I knew that was the real reason for the music :P

  • British people like saying BRILLIANT ))))))))))) reminds me of Top Gear !

  • Comment removed

  • man, this is so awesome!! i was so shure that they used some kind of after effects. but this is great, for real :D

  • It should illegal to air this commercial in anything less than 720p

  • @DallasCowboys94Ware It does amaze me how we have all become so 'spoilt' and seem to snarl at anything less than 720p.....

  • Comment removed

  • Actually, Gordon302's mom was the first one to sign up.

  • This holds the record for most props used in a TV spot :D

  • this is so cool!!! lol 23 on cameras instead of four

  • I wonder if you can still find some balls in that area, wouldnt suprise me if u could

  • @lenlagher ÿou can, there's thousands of balls in the souar

  • Does anyone knows the song playing?

    IN this video...not the advert's one.Thanks.

  • Four Tet - Everything is Alright. Read the comments, this question was answered several times before.

  • Jose Gonzales - heartbeats

  • theprudle: the song is 'heartbeats' by jose gonzales.

  • What is the song in this advert?

  • love you expoltion...

  • the world of marketing ^^

  • unless your car is made of shit and sticks im sure a bouncy ball would do about nothing

  • i wanna know if the frog was planted there or if it just randomly happened to jump out ??

  • what an amazing shot if it was real!

  • Definitely planned, you see the shot where they film it and they blast balls in that direction, on the other hand that'd be pretty cruel to put a frog in a pipe and bombard it with balls so I'm not sure.

  • yea when i whas buying a flat screen, i imidietly thought of Sony Bravia. gues what i've bought: LG!!!

  • LG. Lifes Gay.

  • thats funny !

  • 172

  • Oh my god. I never thought that they would actually have done this. It's great that they did though. - DID YOU HEAR ALL THOSE CAR ALARMS GOING OFF? xD

  • Its just a load of balls if you ask me ;)

  • yeah that's why know one ask'd you :)

  • I wish they would have talked about the clean-up!

  • maybe the haven't cleaned it up :)

  • This is life

  • Love it!

  • This is lovely. Little things like this that make people smile are what makes an otherwise bad day worth while.

  • not just a day a lifetime

  • Crazy, crazy, crazy!

  • There is an old, red iMac in the cutting room.

    By the way:

    Nice commercial!

  • Best commercial ever :)

  • I like how they were talking about it being organic and real when they are selling computers .

  • No, they're selling HD TVs.

  • (HDTVs, not computers)

  • Ha ,yeah im stupid you got me

  • I really hope those two douchebags at the beginning of this clip had nothing to do with such an amazing commercial.

    They might as well be politicians. Well, I guess they are of a sort.

  • What?

  • wow crazy i always thought it was CG....thats even more impressive! good choice of song at the start as well...

  • man they better get it right imagine doing a retake having to pick them all up again

  • Deadly Ad,Amazing City! I LOVE San Francisco!

  • One Of The Most Different Theme In Advertising. The True Massage Related To Colours.

  • love the breaking glass and car alarm sounds in the real sound track. :-)

  • Absolutely beautiful ad!

    But was the riot gear really necessary?

  • if i throw one bouncy ball at you at full pelt it would really hurt, and probably wind you. so having about 10000 coming down a hill at speed would probably kill you instantly :P

  • Dude I seriously hope your kidding!

  • no im dead serious, all that gravity and speed coming down a hill towards you, if you were at the bottom then it would be painful getting hit. and about dying instantly, probably not, but enough knocks to the head and you might be seriously hurt, your head can only take so much =P

  • Yeah, you're right. After reviewing the video again. I agree that those balls could hurt you pretty seriously. The ad is misleading since they slow it down so much.

  • they aren't coming at you at 60 mph

  • it was at least 250 000

  • why couldn't i have been there!

  • brilliant

  • wow if i was there i whould be the happiest guy in the world

  • I said exactly the same thing when i saw the ad !

  • O..M...G....

    I love this kind of balls... I collect them..

    So.. seeing this comercial...

    Astounding (sp?)... It made me speechless and it's hypnotic..

    I want all those balls...

  • It's all about the balls!

  • hey! The director is Danish :D

  • i wonder how many of those balls ended up in the bay through the sewer.

  • they probably blocked off the sewer systems. you can see shots of the balls collecting where they would normally go down the drain.

  • HAHA that's crazy! Would love to be there.

  • it's crazy cause the actual is so mellow and serene yet in actuality all of those hundreds of thousands of super bouncy balls created this thunderous, and rather dangerous, cacophony. still love it though!

  • RareVDO You are a douche!!!!

  • RaveVDO should be PROSECUTED!!

  • Yesterday me and 7 friends went to the highest balcony in my school, and released 10,000 bouncy balls in sports bags over the railings to 2,000 people. We also played the music from this advert on loudspeaker. It was the best thing ever.

  • No, you didnt

  • If you had facebook I could show you the video.

  • i've got facebook
