I was told that there are 6 hand made Hondas in the world. Two were disassembled to make this commercial. At a cost of 6 million. And 606 attempts.

For the science minded, its a great example of a chain reaction.

They put weights inside the rims and carefully balanced them against shims to make them roll uphill when hit.

Over 600 takes to make the whole thing work.

Only CG animation was to splice together two pieces (the Paris studio wasn't big enough for the entire thing).
