    What's impressive is that this was real, and not a CGI. They had to film this in two parts because the set wasn't big enough (look closely at the floor when the muffler starts rolling at about 0:56 and you will see the splice), but it is a functioning Rube Goldberg machine.

    • @borbetomagus
      @borbetomagus Рік тому +11

      And it took about 100 takes to film. One can imagine the sense of relief when it all worked as planned -- though I'd think the jubilation would be caught on camera!.
      'The Way Things Go' (1987) is a similar (and much longer) example, but there are noticeable edits.
      'Making of the Honda Cog' is good. Some mistakes are sorta funny, but undoubtedly aggravating to those involved.
      'Japanese Rube Goldberg Contest' is also quite captivating. Undoubtedly, many other examples out there.
