Golf GTi advert

Not sure if this has already been posted but it's such a cool advert I thought I'd stick it on here...

Still not sure

We were undecided whether he's real or an animation, he looks like elastic the way he moves. Cool advert though.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

They reconstructed the set in meticulous detail, and hired 3 breakdancers as body doubles to do all the moves. Then they added his face digitally and voila!

The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

Yeah, the guy in the orange jumper in the first clip is the same guy in the second clip and he's the first body double on the Golf ad - David 'Elsewhere' Bernal.

Ahh cool, I knew they were both David Elsewhere but didn't know he was in the advert
