What a shame this otherwise great video ends showing the whole family going for a bicycle ride without helmets. So they've reduced their risk of discomfort from computer use and increased their risk of a brain injury.

BRILLIANT, never seen a better ergonomics primer... I wonder who prompted Vodaphone to produce this... If it was just a good PR campaign for them or what.

Still -- they deserve major kudos!
