How the fuck did they do that? The TV show was a nice bit of distraction I was watching that for a while and didn't notice the weight change at first. captainhairy, January 10, 2010 8:56:38 PM CET
hahaha. how the fuck is the right question..!!?? This has just about the slowest and most boring build-up in mv history, but its so worth sitting through the first 2mn for the bizarre payoff.

Yeah, this was great, beautifully shot and the pace fitted the track despite the slow edit. I also didn't notice the payoff until it had almost finished.I just watched most of his ads (linked from his previous vid). I like this guy.

Awesome! that is total genius. The execution was flawless and nicely photographed.najork, January 10, 2010 10:58:19 PM CET
I'd guess it's good ol' fashioned morphing with 3 or 4 people ( as opposed to CQ or prosthetic), which is to say that I give casting and costuming much credit for making that effect so subtile. igor33, January 10, 2010 11:03:43 PM CET
oh easy, they probably just shot in reverse with a fat guy cycling really slow without food for maybe a month 'til he got thin.. then speed it up to make it look normal....freshhead, January 11, 2010 4:47:50 PM CET
I admit, at about 1:30 I just clicked ahead and thought 'why he still on the bike?' Then I clicked ahead and saw he was huge and had to go back and watch it develop. Shot well also, but the first half is still boring.LukeAsa, January 13, 2010 12:08:43 AM CET
very cool. understated and effective. uglykittens, January 13, 2010 7:41:32 PM CET
Phenomenal photography. Great to see he kept the same DP from his last video. Also great color timing, the pastels look perfect. uglykittens, January 13, 2010 7:43:04 PM CET
also why are his hands bloody when he opens the fridge?
