THAT’S A LOT OF BALLS

So, you should all go watch this beautiful Sony commercial in which 250,000 bouncy balls bound down a vertiginous San Francisco street. A wonderful commercial. Then you should watch the bizarre behing-the-scenes feature, minus the soothing music, minus the slomo, where the swarm of balls appear more like some hellish candy-coated hailstorm bent on tenderizing human flesh (and setting off car alarms). Cribbed from boingboing.
