To add realism to the scene have the chairs be dumped from a truck or ceiling tube and the background be a trash yard.

@7motocross22 First of all... this was an animation, which means it is on the computer, not real life. Second of all, your video SUCKED!

we dont need plastic, we dont need Oil.

what is sad is that the reality is that we as a population probably throw away far more chairs than this yearly.
