The exploding semi-trailer was cool. But the first one, the one with the guy on the Segway, was far better!!

You think so, huh? Although I agree the Segway part was super cool in the first vid, overall I think pt.2 is even more impressive.

Here's a link to pt.1 for anyone who hasn't seen it:

The first one just impressed me with all the precision stuff. I've also seen the out-takes shots from the first one. It's not all one long take. In fact they had to do the Segway shoot a couple of times. He even bumped the guy in one of the out-takes.

Awesome!

That's the car my 17 yo wants...ya, when he finishes paying me for his R6...maybe...then I can drive it!

Oh, but then there's college coming up...but he'll need a vehicle to get around in...we do live in upstate NY, lots of snow...and it is 4WD.
That's the conversation around our house.

Yep, that's it CycleJunkie. Seeing the out-takes just makes it all the more impressive to me. Gives a better understanding as to just how hard it was to make.
