RE : amazing video - Honda ad - NAC



http://home.attbi.com/~bernhard36/honda-ad.html

supposedly, this Rube Goldberg-esque commercial, called
"Cog"  is 100% real : no camera tricks or computer aids 
anywhere.  even the wheels rolling uphill,  which were done 
with weights.

i read that it took 606 takes to get every trick to actually work
as planned, so there were no cuts or edits in the film.
six hundred six takes !!!  could you imagine setting up all
those props so carefully that many times . . .
