Asics: Ryan Hall Treadmill Challenge

Marathon runners run must faster that you may think. Asics, the sponsor of Ryan Hall, the fastest marathon runner in America, with a finishing time of 2:04:58 at the 2011 Boston Marathon, game New Yorkers the chance to run at Hall's pace. They used a flatbed truck with a treadmill on the back, set to run at 12.6 MPH, or 4:46 per mile, Hall's average pace. It seems that those who took the challenge had a lot of fun.

Funny facts about Canadian advertising professional but I am sure they could be universal. OK let's start with the basic fact. We drink. All of us.

Sony 4K: Four times the detail

Amazing spot from Sony that illustrates perfectly the 4K experience. They made 8 million petals to erupt from a volcano in Costa Rica, making the environment fill with magestic colors, thus symbolizing the 8 million pixel display on 4K TVs. More amazing is the fact that this are real petals. See this in Full HD or find a 4K and watch it in 3840 x 2160.
