This is amazingly well done advertising. Notice the following:

- Tom dickens is perfectly casted, geeky yet funny and very likable. Oh, and guys in lab-coats are always believable, which is why they're used so often in tv ads.

- The graphics and setups is a great pun on the TV-shop infomercials, with added humor. The 70's style is carried all the way through including the music, the setup, and the graphic design.

- It conveys the message "our blenders are better than all other brands, and will blend anything you care to throw at them" without ever explicitly stating it which makes it so much more believable.

- It's viral like hell...

Add in two shots of tequila, some ice cubes, and a dash of lime and you have a Fanboy Margarita.

I understand why we have to sacrifice few cars for crash testing but wasting expensive gadgets like iPad just to show off your Blender is not right.

They could of wasted a tree by delivering $1000 worth of advertising flyers. I like the blending approach better.
