Honda Accord Commercial

[Kice39]

Isn't it nice when things just work on the first try, not the 606th?

[punkvictim]

606 takes, 6.2 million dollars. true story

[tangrish]

WOW !!!! Amazing really!!

Honda is the Japanese power not Toyota!!!!!!!!!!

[TheMegalemons]

thats a huge hallway

[NanceyTrangiu766]

mmh ich hab was unanständiges entdeckt

[afsdavidchina]

I want to know how long it took them to make this commercial...

[missliv10829]

@afsdavidchina 

602 times

[tophatch]

@afsdavidchina ~Required 606 takes - in the first 605 takes there always was something, usually of minor importance, that didn't work. It was necessary for the recording team to install the set-up time after time and it took several weeks working day and night. The recording cost 6 million dollars and it took 3 months to finish.By the way, the windshield wipers in the new Honda Accords are sensitive to water and designed to start working as soon as they get WET!

[holymuledeer]

Hey man check my accord out. 1995 Honda accord LX with 40,000miles on it!!! (72,000km's). Help me in deciding what I should do to my car to improve speed, and my accord is rather good looking too with some nice rims! watch?v=bOQOd7LRs-c

[bet4ur]

this comercial was made for 6,2 milijons USA dollars

[rockinrichardradio]

This is computerized for entertainment purposes only.

[tophatch]

@rockinrichardradio Very important that you understand that there are no computer graphics or digital tricks in these images. Everything that you see happened in real time exactly as you see it!

[KJV1611ASV1901]

What a "Rube Goldberg" type deal. Always did like those things.

[DarVisDar]

another example how big corporations steal artists hard work. f*&k this!

some education - check "Der Lauf der Dinge" from Peter Fischli und David Weiss

[0FXproductions0]

6,2 milion dollars!

[mikeoli]

How does this make me want to buy a car if it is real it is someones ego on display, do the brakes work

[Airborne80]

@mikeoli damn........ I checked and this is real but you........ you make a great point! Ego. cancer to human growth!

[rockinrichardradio]

Not so great, you can do anything with computer generated videos. It's fake.

[NorwayMAN88]

@rockinrichardradio no it's not fucking fake you dumb fuck.

If Honda says it's real then it's real. if they said it was real and it wasn't, they would get their ass whooped by lawyers in the US.

and the tires have weights in them, så don't try to say against me.

[Bandtrip50]

MOUSETRAP!

[Mr42ohh]

@vinity123 you "saw this is school" ... someone needs to stay in school.

[Sammyv12345]

I saw this in science class last year.

[jairuribe1]

wtf

[jonesey5168]

thumbs up for if you have 200,000 mile + Honda :D

[dascandy]

@Glove5489 Big weight attached to the exact top. As soon as you bump into it slightly, it's going to one side & will roll 180deg to that side.

[Glove5489]

I luv it but how did the tires go up ! that's what im not understanding

[mashinaronoo]

@Glove5489 weighted tires in the upper part. When they get bumped it throws the balance off so the weighted upper portion falls and rolls up

[mejasim]

Stop acting like you are the Father of Physics... cz its Real!

--> /watch?v=bcriwurG1FA

[JapanBMX]

v-tec kicked in at 0:22

[altima1fuga2]

Utterly impossible.

jUST wasted 2:01 of my life watching this trash!

[BlackHayateTheThird]

@altima1fuga2 ugh, no this is real, it took 606 takes over 3 months to get it right made by some of honda's top engineers. there are no graphics, it's all legit. you just spent 2 min watching the impossible be quite possible

[dsrevo79]

a commercial you dont skip

[bluesbunny121]

song is The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper's Delight Vote up! :)

[houdinigirl22]

too bad about them getting sued for copyright infringement - look up "the way things go" by fishli/Weiss 1987

[kynaleski]

@houdinigirl22 how ridiculous fishli/weiss don't own chain reactions....didn't invent them either. They did their one in a dozen versions of a rube goldberg.

[marco1991pl]

God Damn this room is fucking huge.

[viewerofthisvideo]

best commercial ever

[yosoytacoseasoning]

i hate when people say that some people have too much time on their hands when they do something like this. this commercial will last forever and is a legend in its own right

[02gala98pa]

this took like 600 tries to get right

..

[02gala98pa]

this took like 600 tries to get right

[RealKyloss]

that's not adert, that's pure art

[mrajczyk]

i like the walking windshield wipers best

[naufal2diki]

At the end of video, What rythm was used ?

[Spur58pwns]

@naufal2diki Queen - Another One Bites The Dust

[RealKyloss]

@Spur58pwns similar, yes

[tigerboy1227]

fake and gay on the tires and the beggining

[AngelofApocalypse87]

@tigerboy1227 the tires is easy. they have a weight in the top of them so when they are bumped, the weight will cause it to roll up hill.

[mrajczyk]

@AngelofApocalypse87 -why are the tires not rolling down the plane before they are hit ?? i don't see any bumps on the board holding them there

[AngelofApocalypse87]

@mrajczyk because the weights are at the top and the tires are perfectly balanced at the time. the slightest nudge and they fall out of balance and the weight drags them around.

[Gmoney400]

@tigerboy1227 your an idiot

[frohman3]

Looks like those windshield wipers didn't like that wiper fluid.

[surfitlive]

looks like 70 american car manufacturers disliked this commercial : )

[7StarsFromTheMoOn]

@surfitlive and one motorcycle comercial

[regrettedme]

very cool. but reminds me of some thriller movie like Mindhunters. :\

[henryusyay]

at 0:30 wheels don't seems to go through physics

[LordofDarkness42]

@henryusyay There are wieghts inside of them.

[theasiandude19]

@henryusyay They said they had weights in the tires, research it...

[throatgorge2]

@henryusyay 1:19 1:29 the entire room was tilted

[boriskaeski]

@henryusyay nor the exhaust at 1:00

[CrewOfMasters]

If anything is fake, its the speakers at the end. Definitely not the tires, they are weighted.

[koobose1]

@CrewOfMasters or how the wheels on the car somehow turn at the end.

[ultramanlll]

@CrewOfMasters why would you care about what is real and what is not as long as it COOL like tis commercial?

[ryanhk3]

Very obvious a trick, the tires 2 and 3 roll in a very strange way, indicating that there are weights inside to make it roll.

Look at the 3rd tire after it hits the 4th tire.

The 3rd tire stopps and then rolls again upwards the ramp. Clearly a trick.

[nisharegina]

Absolutely classy commercial!

[leehyunjinman]

help me please

[youssef2008salem]

wtf a1:13

[ThePencil901]

take a look at the tires, denfinteley cgi, or pitagora suuichi could've done it, watch his vids.

[ZemplinTemplar]

Does anyone know when was this produced ?

[imaclownandwillkillu]

Uh oh, they're using Apple's slogan. It just works.

[enderx420]

@imaclownandwillkillu You're an idiot.

[imaclownandwillkillu]

@enderx420 Really? How? Oh and congratulations on using correct grammar. It probably took you all day.

[sinaptico]

Melhor comercial de todos os tempos!!!

[PNCStar96]

I have to do a science project like this but to pop a balloon. It's so complicated. ): I really need help. Any suggestions?

[Pianoskiller]

@PNCStar96 pop the balloon through the heat of a flashlight !

[doctorfunkshock]

They need to add an exploding airbag!

[whattheheck1000]

hell yeah! that would rock! BANG!!!

[zu2kokoro]

everything is possible but the tires.

[xgirl451]

@zu2kokoro

The weighted the tires with car parts so that with a little encouragement it would roll uphill

[vargulf19]

@zu2kokoro They weighted them silly.

[alexanderino]

Cool ^_^

[domtheboxer]

really good

[17dramaprincess]

The deal behind the tires (my science teacher explained) is that each tire is more heavier as it rolls up. So that's why it has the

potential to do so.

[bkmartinie]

this is really cool. and all the parts you see are all car parts.and in my class we are making something like this and it is really fun. i enjoyed watching it in my class.

[Sampoe83]

Yes. Your comment put me in total silence. How stupid I am.

[sinaptico]

Na moral: o melhor comercial de carro que existe. E antes que alguém pergunte, as rodas sobem a rampa porque têm um contrapeso do lado de dentro. Ele tende a descer, fazendo o pneu girar. Tanto é que quando o contrapeso chega do lado de baixo, as rodas ficam paradas.

[Khandrei]

0:59 means this is CGI

[Donleybr101]

its all real its just that the wheels were weighted so when it hit them the weight did the work wich brought it down thats the only cheating they did

[snakesrule232]

It wasn't really cheating... the weights were taken from the Honda Accord

[MultiSWEETTOOTH]

awsome

[Sampoe83]

0:26 how can the tires go uphill like that.... fake. second tire from the top keeps accelerating after hit.. no no no

[ductonius]

So, you don't think it's at all possible that they put weights on the tires?

[og882001]

yea dat part was strange

[trisket23]

haha, that was skilled, but even though they spent loads of time on it, its not an amazing adver to be honest :( and the end bit is really cheesy "isnt it nice when things just work"

[airbuscrazy]

i didnt find it cheesy at all, i thought it fit well

[mnt011]

For all skeptics, in one of my advertising textbooks, it says this ad was filmed in real time without any special effects and took 606 takes for the whole thing to work. Awesome!

[leonmontanha]

You people are really dumb to believe in that. This is combination of Real Stuff and CGI, its a real scene, but not everything in it. The CGI do the hard parts, and because of a damn good CGI and the combination with real stuff, it looks like that, but anyone can note it's a bit fake. Just take a closer look...

[trainiax]

Take a closer look at what? What in this clip suggests that it's not real? Look it up. It's all real, and it took 606 takes--which means there were 605 takes in which something didn't work quite right.

If this was CGI, the ad would be pointless. The whole point was to use actual parts of disassembled Accord prototypes to create a Rube Goldberg machine.

[ryanhk3]

@trainiax

It is not completely real, the part with the tires is not real. The 3rd tire pushes the last one, the 3rd tire stops and then starts rolling upwards again. There are clearly weights inside to support the tires to roll the ramp up.

You say look it up, seems you looked it up in wikipedia. You better read the part 'Sequence' the end of the first paragraph:

"... This wheel rolls off and knocks into the first of a series of three weighted wheels, which roll up a ramp ..."

weighted wheels

[trainiax]

@ryanhk3

When I say "real", I mean not computer generated. There is nothing "unreal" about adding a weight inside the wheels. I did not use Wikipedia as reference, since I first saw the clip in university mechanical engineering several years ago.

[SlRDancealot]

There is no way the wheel part is authentic.

[fedeparkour]

it's an animation dude

[9670515]

Amazing

[blaiddwyn]

Best television commercial ever. Totally authentic - I heard it took days to set up. The only fudge I think I detect is a freeze frame at the end, where the car stops rolling (so as not to obscure the shade). Brilliant, inspired - and utterly addictive. Keep coming back to it. Blows my mind every time.

[yneshAshanti]

Surely this video has been tampered lol. Wow.

[muhammad15l04l1993]

I downloaded this video and watched it backwards on Quicktime, totally awesome! Someone should upload it backwards. @electricmastro

[toytony]

no CG, this is the real deal unlike Hollywood!

[jhaqastar]

The wheels had heavy weights inside

[NenaElf]

That whole thing was real. Even the part where the wheel goes up the ramp! That part just is made by putting a wrench (if I remember right) to the inside of the wheel and the momentum of the swing of the wrench pulls it upwards. Or something like that. XD.... Google it.

[electricmastro]

someone should play this backwards.

[mattchek]

im getting a 2000 honda accord, almost mint and only 18,000 klm on it. how much could i sell itfor

[Banj95]

Honda is very innovative: from their engines to even commercials... COOL!!

[mrlems]

how do the wheels roll up the ramp?

heavy counterweights?

or a trick?

[ntprofile]

I would like to know also.

[ntprofile]

Every other interaction worked except for the wheels.

[sengelle]

WOW! I remember this ad in 3rd grade. I must say that is truly amazing and very good talent!!!!!!

[MoyMcNinja]

This commercial took 606 takes, with no special efffects! AMAZING!

[HyperbirdF6]

ive just bought an accord

fantastic car

[shinagawagirl]

Exactly !!! If things could work !!!

i wish my trash french car could work like that !

[papsiur]

no super fura, cudo diesel, benzyna - wiadomo made in JAPAN, najlepsza ;]

[zeroskater133]

Nice. A Honda Rube Goldberg machine.

[itachi2459]

This is the most amazing thing ever.

[4evrGooner]

I heard it took over 600 takes to get it right. Worth it in the end

[hollowman9514]

Honda have way too much time on their hands XD

One of the coolest commercials ever I say..

[o0oTintino0o]

Epic I should make one xD like this, to bad it costs $6 million :'( *sigh*

[Sacrafire]

I read from somewhere not a single bit here is a computer graphic, awesome!

[samlim94]

They did like 600 times out of 1 to succeed this commercial.

[enderx420]

@samlim94 Yeah on the 606th take. Cost $6 Million

[laughabc]

@samlim94 i think thats computer animated the most part

[10Ricz]

@samlim94 If this was made by japapense people, 1 time was enough. they have a sense to perfection!

[1PARADOXXX]

@samlim94 thats the power of dreams

[john011296]

astig ni sir cheto!!! montiflor 2i

[bobows123]

i love it to peaces i keep on playing it over and over again, its classic lol

[doobidoo123]

that is fuckin awesome

[1gladiators20082009]

Michael Tiongco from 2J was here!!!!  hi sr. CHETO!

[1gladiators20082009]

go sir CHETO!! panoorin nyo lng!! :))

[john011296]

galing talaga ni sir cheto!!!

[vikrantgoell]

kkkkk.... now i got it

perfectly cool commercial

[mavinferguson]

it's cool.

[hkpopfan4lif3]

RAPPERS DELIGHT W00t!!!

[JC007CJ]

EXCELLENT, AM SOLD!!!

[vikrantgoell]

@ 01:17

how the hell the window glass opened

[rustyscope]

notice the curl wires leading to a battery just right after that pole thing reaches the window glass

[vikrantgoell]

yaa... agreed

[vikrantgoell]

this is not real

00:25

the wheels fail the newton's law :D

[Joeymtl]

They put weights in the wheels.

[MultiKdizzle]

they have magnets in them that rotate, thus pushing them up, you dolt

[vikrantgoell]

u zilch head... firstly mind ur language...

and secondly, its done by putting weights... makes sense

not ur magnet theory

[MultiKdizzle]

they are magnetic weights bro

[vikrantgoell]

hmmm

why did they make it magnetic? coudnt normal weights work? :o

[browny232323]

It is real. The only reason you say it's not is because you dont fully understand what is happening.

[venom477]

This is actually all real,

[JosheyD1]

Actually Yes

but it took about 100 takes lolz

[smv3rs]

606 takes..

[mattchuzeezee]

lol. imagine someone tried to do that to their accord.

too much free time honda (Y)

[UN1TED5TATE5AMER1CA]

[Gian092]

It's computer edited: you can clearly see it at 0:27 and many other times.

[hihi1212smart]

wow ur stupid

the wheels were weighted at 0:27

it took over 600 takes to get it right

btw it never aired in the U.S.

[Gian092]

You're just another usual american with your rudeness. Get some manners and a new brain poor retard.

With the inertia force that the coming wheel had it couldn't make move the other three which were on an inclined plane, in fact you can see they're accelerating on it (particularly the last wheel), which is impossible.

[Hellothere212121]

Apparently you're just another obnoxious Italian, perhaps it's you that need to learn some manners.

What you fail to consider is the possibility that the wheels may have been weighted, thus only requiring an initial push to start their momentum.

PS - I'm Canadian, which, while technically in the Americas, does not qualify me as an "American".

[Gian092]

Well obviously you do not know what is a momentum.

Broadly, the momentum expresses the tendency of a force to cause a rotation around a pole (in this case), so since it is a tendency, you can't start it because it is already a starting phenomenon.

If this video is real, a weight must have been positioned only at the right of each wheel, otherwise I can not understand the acceleration of the third from last and the penultimate wheels as in 0:28.

[oomblikkies]

Momentum(M) is a force in a straight line (no rotation) and is calculated as the mass (m) times the velocity (v). Thus M=mv. In the ad the 2nd wheel is smaller (thus less mass) than the first, so for it to have the same momentum, it must move faster.

[Gian092]

There are different types of momentum, in fact I've written *in this case* (and there isn't just the case of a force in a straight line). Anyway, the other wheels are ACCELERATING after the transimssion of the kinetic energy while moving in the inclined plane, and that's impossible. As I said stop saying trivialities. This is video is just fake, computer edited and nothing can change my idea, neither the fact that your grandparents, Santa Claus or Barack Obama has been working on it.

[ukbrumboy]

In all honesty it isn't impossible... if you store a weight on the inside of the wheel that is fluid and can freely move inside the tyre it is possible for the motion of that fluid to bring the tyre with it.

[Gian092]

Seriously, do you think to make such commercial they put water into the wheels?

Fluids, as any other physical objects, obey to the inertia principle so it would just make move the tyres shakily, but that's all.

As I said, the only way to cause that acceleration is positioning a weight (fixed) at the right of each wheel only, but that's only a remote hypothesis.

Another observation is that at the end of the tyres sequence, on the inclined plane, they don't return back. Why? Because it's fake.

[Gian092]

Plus the Momentum(M) IS NOT a force. Don't post if you don't know what you're talking about you genius -.-"

[Gian092]

Ah and explain me why the wheels don't return back.

[browny232323]

Firstly the shot is not on the wheels long enough to return down the incline so your point is pretty much useless. But you do see the end wheel wobble as someone put it. However I suspect the weight on the rim is still trying to rotate the wheel up the incline.

[Gian092]

Yes maybe I have to understand that most of the "americans" have to be ignored, as their rudeness transmits their lack of education only.

Since the U.S.A. saddled to itself the term "american" to indicate only an U.S.A. inhabitant, I also use the term with this meaning.

[ivanardo]

@Gian092 U.S.A. saddled to itself the term "american"to indicate only an U.S.A. inhabitant

man i hate that....

[Gian092]

And, in conclusion, perhaps an adult has to be more well-mannered than a 17 years old boy, hasn't he?

Just get a life losers and stop "bullshitting".

[WindowsAndMacintosh]

No. It took 606 shots. My grandpa was one of the people who designed this.

[Gian092]

Well I'm really skeptical about this video and the fact that all of you YouTubers have got somebody who worked in this commercial.
