  • I only gave this a thumbs up because of Gary.

  • Chuck Norris has a two times stronger battery in his Vespa...

  • THIS IS AWESOME! How cool it this! Gary Numan gets the respect he deserves! Saw him in NYC a few monthes back,and he is better than ever!!!

  • I saw bre

  • If I was Gary Numan, I would kick the commenter in the head, who the fuck you calling operator?!

  • What is the song at the end?

  • @eMproductions10 the song is called (cars) and the sings the same Gary Numan.

  • @megan130 Oh yeah! And I'm not tired of it!

  • alternator on???????????

    and Its easy to hide a battery whith a remote swich

  • Isnt it overkill to have a battery in your car that is possible to powen 24 cars?

  • Yeah now I'm going to go buy a car battery from this lol

  • there is only ten people in the worl who will understand this... LARY AND GARY!

  • dosent even play a fucking tune 

  • i love gary numan

  • Someone tell the DieHard people to send one of thoes platnum bateries to mythbusters

  • Where's Bruce Willis?

  • @StealthedHell Yeah, and the countless explosions and large scale myths that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to set up were under budget. Do you know how much industrial grade explosives cost? 800 pounds worth of it would easily pay to set up a pretty decent remake of this commercial very easily.

  • I thought he'd play a song on them :(

  • @freeNode5 - I thought the same thing. Maybe I missed something, but once a single car starts its alternator maintains the battery's charge, so I don't get what playing one note proves.

  • @0rip0 They played the note before they started the cars I think. After watching it again, it looks like the light box, the head-lights, and the horns were all powered by the battery with the cars off. Since his keyboard was apparently modulating the car horns, it would have really been cool if they'd started them up to keep the battery from dying and played a song :D

  • Come Mythbusters do this one!! :)

  • i love that clip

  • DAmmnn ....yea let mythbusters get a hold of this one.

  • @ makemagazine actually this was conceived and created by James Frost that guy who directed the radiohead "house of cards" video he also worked with Syyn labs on the Ok Go video.

  • wait a sec isnt gary numan the creater of gmod

  • @chromzepher

    Close, it's Garry Newman who made gmod

  • @kaze4159 ooooo well then whos this gary numan guy

  • @chromzepher An electronic artist? Never heard of "Cars"? Thats a goood song

  • Was the version of the song at the end made special for the commercial? Either way, does anyone have a link to this version I like the sound of it compared to the one on Newman's solo album.

  • hahahah lol awesome

  • DID THE BATTERY DIED???

  • why so many cars? i would just use three cars to "mary had a little lamb" and thats it...

  • this was pretty neat

  • sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooo cool

  • wtf?

  • Fossil fuel powered cars?! Gary Numan is from previous millenium like are fossil fuel powered cars. Another sad advertising.

  • Awesome!

  • so does this mean the death of combustion engines ?

  • @DouglasMcK i think this means the death of the cars alternators, or at least the battery lol

  • check out the other version of the ad - it ROCKS!

  • Some people don't understand that this is the making of the commercial and not the commercial itself....

  • @AWKvideos0 Yeah, and they should not post these stupid little videos on Youtube...What a waste of time I will never get back!

  • Wow he pressed like one key and 1 headlight came on. This is Visual Diarrhea

  • my dad filmed this ha and built the lite cube

  • think about it. an average car battery lasts about 5-10 years.. so its not that amazing that 1 brand new battery can power 24 cars. its all propaganda

  • @AVerbene

    Thats because the car constantly charges it while theses cars are off and the battery still powers 24 cars.

  • this is fake

  • Commercial fail.

  • Brilliant!!!

  • i did this once. but not like that,

  • i had a dier hard and it did not stand up to the power that my sound system needed and gues wat it didnt start so figer out the math

  • The Simpson did it

  • so what if they want to prove how good their battery is give some scientific statement or some new technoligy all a car battery is acid that can hold are charge or however it works i doubt it can be improved

  • and people say that battery technology is not good enough for an electric cars. lol not.

  • Gerry looks weird

  • ummm... i read hardgay ._.

  • woooww haha ima go buy it :P

  • OMG FUCKING NOOBS READ THE DAMN DESCRIPTION AND SEE THE FULL COMMERCIAL ... ¬¬

  • weak

  • gimme kk

  • Finally something Awesome!

  • I watched this video just because it had Gary Numan in it. Hehe.

  • yea that was wack :/

  • LOL, that would have been nice if there was a demo.

  • soo they bacisly ran like 24 cars and a keybord off one battery thats a waste of like 2 days of work.

  • Numan!..

  • One of the greatest one hit wonders ever! Love that song.

  • @SouthJerseySasquatch You're a fucking idiot, kid. Gary Numan was very popular in the 80s for more than one song. Kill yourself.

  • @Jallandhara Fuck yourself douchbag. Gary Numan is a one hit wonder and I am 39 faggot. You fucking worthless ass lick dip shit.

  • @SouthJerseySasquatch He isn't a one hit wonder,

    Are Friends Electric No.1

    Cars No.1

    Complex No.6

    We Are Glass No.5

    I Die You Die No.6

    She's Got Claws No.6

    Music For Chameleons No.19

    We Take Mystery To Bed No.9

    He may be known as a one hit wonder in America, but that's because he didn't release loads of his material over there because people like you don't deserve the great music he makes!

  • @guywholikesvids Bloody wanker. A one hit wonder in America is all that you need to know. Stay across the pond and get a life. You don't deserve to even have a conversation with me.

  • @SouthJerseySasquatch I will stay across the pond because I don't want to get bombarded with stupid comments from fat bastards like you. I also wonder how you can possibly have such an intolerable amount of ignorance without managing to eat a DieHard battery thinking it was a cookie.

  • @guywholikesvids Look, this all started when your fellow troll made and idiotic comment in reply to my comment. You will stay across the pond because we can't stand your smell over here, we'd beat your ass and send you home. I wonder how a douchebag such as yourself can live with yourself. So friggin what he had numerous hits in England, he had no hits in Pakistanand what does that matter? Do you see now the utter stupidity you portray with your lame comments now? Probably not, over your head!

  • @SouthJerseySasquatch Ahh, the sweet smell of hypocrite. Your calling Jallandhara the troll, when you've been clogging up this page with your inane BS

  • @Jallandhara one hit wonder central dot com/

    Educate yourself before someone does it for you fag.

  • @SouthJerseySasquatch Who doesn't know Gary Numan was a one hit wonder? Is that Jallandhara seriously stupid? Get a life LOL!

  • one thing i want to say, in this he only played one note, in the commercial he played more.

  • Impressive!

  • how lame. why didnt' he play a song?

  • I want that everlasting battery lol.

  • lol i love the song

  • wow thats one hard battery!

  • my li-po batt kicks more ass

  • wow, that is such a coincidence, I was messing around on the piano yesterday and made a tune that kinda sounded like this, and I was all "this seems familiar..." and now I found it at the end of this video. And now, all I can say is: fuck, I learned it in the wrong key.

  • GETTING THAT FUCKING BATTERY

  • ooo

  • Cool the guy who made Garrysmod has the same name as this guy

  • @AZNFlipy12 Spelled different though. Unless youz trollin

  • Gary Numan looks just like Michael Myers. lol

  • @Proinventor91 He's just not as fat.

  • Thats awesome.

  • haha cool

  • Gary Numan - the original emo.

  • You could do that with any battery.

  • LOL there is a minor cheat, everytime they start a car, that cars alternator takes care of its energy demands and probably some spare to share the load with the battery.

    Starting all the cars at once would be impossible though. I think two or three cars at a time would be to big a drain for any car battery. But a great advertising idea.

  • @adolthitler ...If you're disappointed because the battery can't start 24 cars all at once, then I think your standards are a bit too high haha.

  • @ZOMGItsRobot Nah I only need my batteries to start my one car. Its just the science makes this less impressive. My dissapointment only goes as far as I think they did not play the full track. I think the battery could have handled that, and started the car after.

  • COOOOOOOOOOOOLLLL

  • When the first car started, it also stared charging the battery, so it will go on, and on..

  • @ricande not true, the alternator is not a generator. it would simply hold the battery at its current charge it would not put more power in.

  • so awesome!

  • weird

  • you can actually use 1 9v battery and 2 aa bateries to powert that.

  • when they started the first car, the alternator powered the second car, and so on. so this cant be real

  • @ClassicConsoleReview not true. the alternator does not generate power it just simply maintains power in the battery and would not be enough to power the other cars lights and horns while powering the car it is in

  • can i have those 2 minutes back?

  • I would like to see the Mythbusters test this. That would make a great episode.

  • @mikeycomputer yaaa really

  • @mikeycomputer  I'm a physics major and there is nothing scientific about Mythbusters. Just entertaining tv.

  • @themaxxray That's why I'd like them to test this. It would be quite an episode.

  • @mikeycomputer end the episode by blowing up all the cars

  • @mikeycomputer yeah i love Mythbusters

  • you can do that with any car battery its just a matter of how you wire it. if u wire it parallel u can use one battery for that

  • I thought it was Garry Newman like the one that invented Garrys Mod :(

  • @turf7227 Lol, there is yet another one. An 80s pop "legend." Wrote the song "Cars."

    I sometimes wonder if they are both related though. They have to be.

  • What a waste of money LOL!

  • All that... and no music playing? well i call this a Fail...

  • cool

  • u kno wat would be more interesting kipkay making us stuff

  • But.... Garry Newman didn't make Diehard..... He made Garry's mod.

  • looks fun to be honest

  • wow that would be amazing!

  • i really dont see whats impressive about this. i mean yeah its cool but its not really any different than just starting you car 24 times after playing with the horn.

  • @FailedSquare thats how they fool the general public

  • lol i tough he said garry newman

  • Thumbs down

  • 3rd  eventhought im not ... i just wanna get it right :D

  • How come you guys didn't link to the origional video at DIEHARD's channel?

  • He didnt even play anything....

  • @randomtwinkie you should read the desription and watch the actual commercial..

  • why didnt he actually play the keyboard? he only hit one note

  • @LiTh07 I think it's the note that is played on the synth in the song at the end.

  • @LiTh07 See in the description, he plays at the link that is given there. :)

  • @LiTh07

    It's a making-of video. The actual commercial is linked below the video.

  • @LiTh07 the battery was out of juice after that 1 note ;)

  • cool

  • 2th

  • @winnipegtroll01 You mean 2nd, jackass.

  • 1th

  • @SDPstudio you mean 1st, retard
