What Cars Were Made For: Super Slow-Motion Glass Smashing And Giant Water-Balloon Popping With A BMW

If I'm not mistaken, this looks like it was filmed on the Black Rock Desert, the same place where Burning Man takes place.

Nope, salt flats in Utah.

What a disgrace to use Beethoven's Emperor concerto for a car advert.

BMW is my favorite car, but is very costly car. In this car many facility provide and it's most popular car in the world.

where were the pedestrain-targets? i rarely see big apples on my roads... ;(

Where'd all those thousands of gallons of water go?

desert + water = ground absorbs the water

Not that fast.

...they just forgot to add the giant puddle effect to the last shot.

Let me be the first to cry fake. Because it so is.

Oh comon, why would you say its fake?

because the shadows are all wrong and it resembles a scene in a certain movie

Well, take note of the sky during the lifespeed parts. It's blue. Cut to the apple, and the background is grey. Cut away from the apple and we see blue sky once more, and, what's more, no shards of red glass falling off the car. It's the same with all three obstacles. I'd say that the slow-mo parts were done in miniature, and the obstacles were added in with CG during the lifespeed sections. Anyway, where would they get a glass apple of that size?

Hahaha...Im kidding..I kid! I know it was all fake, my brother sent me a link to that yesterday and being that ive been a glassmaker for almost 20 years, I knew they didnt have a glass apple that big. A glass apple that size would be so heavy and thick that it would have destroyed the front of the BMW. The other shots as well, have been featured elsewhere...the balloons at least I have seen somewhere.

........if you haven't noticed they have things holding those up which account for the grey background watch each opening scene for each object blue sky with grey clouds over the mountains....they dont say the apple is glass the apple could be plastic....and for being a glass maker your giving glass too much tensile strength at 60 mph a car can plow through wood and wood isnt anywere near as brittle as glass...but like i said its likley plastic polymer

That whole thing is CGI. Rendered surfaces still aren't as good as film/video. Pause it at 0:30 and tell me that's a real person driving.

cg - probably done in max real flow and after effects.

the tunnel was the best part
