L'Univers de Chocolat Chocolate with Whisky: Car Accident

Chocolate with whiskey. Perfect combination. And an alleged drunk kid crashing his toy car is a great way to show that there is a lot of whiskey in it.

BMW M5 - "Bullet" high performance art

Awesome video from BMW. An M5 going through a glass apple, water balloons and a shooting target, extremely fast but shown in a super slow bullet motion. Imagine a frame rate as high as a 1000 frames per second.

UNIQLO: Dry Mesh Project

Uniqlo hacked Pinterest to showcase their products. The "Uniqlo Dry Mesh Project," managed to cut through ‘scrolling slumber’ with a simultaneous pinning event. They created 100 separate user accounts and dominated Pinterest with their pins. When users scrolled through the page a branded Uniqlo mosaic appeared. Excellent work from Firstborn New York.
