Awesome Rube Goldberg. Think of the work that went into this project! I am really impressed by the creativity they put into this.

Looks like CGI to me.

i dont think it is cgi. i read somewhere they wer e talking about the commercial and how they made it and they said something like there were hundreds of takes to make it right. something would be off by a mm, and it would just stunt the whole thing.

the do-nothing machine is awesome. something about the camera work makes me think that maybe it was filmed in parts instead of one continuous series of interactions.

the honda commercial is pretty cool too. the only thing that ruined it was the part where the three tires climbed an incline all by themselves with no propulsion or momentum

the tires were weighted on the inside so as to rebalance themselves after being disturbed
