My guess is staged.

Watch the dude who gets his head pounded into the counter... The silly swoon before he kneels, and he never raises his hands up to his head... See if you dont reflexivly raise your hands up to your head after getting it pounded into a counter... Acting.

Awespme, tho.

Of course it's fake, the static and camera video overlays are noticeably fake. And how ofen do you see no visible product labels in a convenience store. Question is, what the hell is it promoting? (I assume it's an advertisement.)

I agree. I sincerely doubt that they were filming off of the viewing monitor. The scanlines and camera status indicators were added in post.

Still, if it really happened then that's pretty surreal. :-)

I was going to suggest the same. Ostriches and wrestlers, yeah.

Stride Gum.

While watching Rurouni Kenshin/Samurai-X on Crackle (thanks Andrew) they'd show an ad or 2 every once in a while. Almost consistently it would be this...

Sonofabitch. Now... Now, everytime I hear about or (perhaps) see anything about Stride Gum - I"m going to remember that freaking commercial. me,

Ah, if you watch closely.... (Knowing now what it's about) you can read his lips.

"This tastes like..."

Then the fun begins.

Pretty typical scenario around these parts; storefront blows in, Mexican Wrestler & Ostriches storm in and knock some heads around. Happens all the time.
