...lookit where the sleeve is rolling down the plank and almost stops after touching the hanging rod. After the rod pushes the sleeve forward again it runs into the closed window, stopping it until the window rolls down. The sleeve seems to countinue down the plank that seems to be going THROUGH the CLOSED window. I wonder how real THAT is... unless it's two planks... who cares?

... anyway, it's a repost!!! Hehehe

It's all real. There's a whole article floating around somewhere. Took 606 takes to get it right, but what you see in the commercial is one complete, unbroken sequence. Pretty awesome...

FLASH isn't something it was "done" with persay. He just converted the video file into a flash animation so it was easier for people to see on his webpage. FLASH is for animation purposes only (with images) in webpages and sometimes navigation menus of webpages. But there are plugins which splice every single frame of video into a flash animation making it look like a video. but yea after careful review, it looks real to me also.

actually it's two spliced-together sequences, because the set wasn't big enough. they used computer graphics to link them together. (sorry for bein an ***.)
