it's very possible this is a repost but i found this commercial very cool. it was shot in real time. It required 606 takes and cost $6 million to shoot and took 3 months to complete.

Says right on the page.
".....The sequence where the tires roll up a slope looks particularly impressive but is very simple. Steiner says that there is a weight in each tire and when the tire is knocked, the weight is displaced and in an attempt to rebalance itself, the tire rolls up the slope"


That's the best ad I've ever seen!

That's indeed true, no need to doubt it. A friend of mine designed the lighting for that ad. I have a special DVD with "behind the scene" stuff on it, the tires rolled uphill just like in the ad.

I also saw it a while back, but I love watching it every time...


I remember trying to figure out how the tires rolled uphill, and I think they weighted the tires so that any disturbance would get them moving in that direction... pretty cool stuff...
