He was a window washer or painter or something, so when he fell off the balcony area, he was tethered to the wall. It was a rope that stopped him from falling. The commercial is supposed to remind you of several different videogames in one, so it was probably done on purpose for him to look like something out of Star Wars.

This was an overseas ad for the English audience, but was never released anywhere.

Aw well. As banned as that ad is, it'll probably be shown in Japan or something. So we can all just move there and watch on TV. The best part is that we won't have to know japanese or even read subtitles because there is no talking. Just "Bang!"s. I do think that was a good commercial. The guy on the cell phone hitting the steering wheel was nice. What I really liked was the guy falling from the balcony above and hitting something sticking out of the wall, if that's what stopped him from hitting the ground. Is it just me, or does it look like he is wearing an orange jumpsuit with the cream armor/padding from a Rebel fighter is Star Wars? And then the grenade with the two guys jumping like they had gotten hit by the blast.

I just love the guy at the end in the taxi, how he's talking on the phone and then just takes the shot and falls onto the horn. That commercial is so awesome.

I mean, I see why they refuse to air it, but c'mon! It's so funny and cool! They are missing out on hitting such a large audience, especially if they showed this commercial in theaters.

How was that cinematic masterpiece banned?! We let Janet Jackson's breats on the air, we let skin-tight skantily clad women, we let Saving Private Ryan...

But this? There was no crime beyond being too funny. And laywers are sad because their souls were eaten by demons when they were children so they want everyone else to be sad...

Wow that was a pretty great idea for the commercial...and I can also get a slight grasp on why the ad was banned...because...uh oh....everyone was killing each other with fake air guns...

it was awesome though....makes me want to do the same thing Zabuza wanted to do...

That was great.

They so should have aired that. Much better than the Jump-rope commercial.

And, Microsoft has banned it, refusing to show it anywhere on air! I mean, it's just running around and doing the air "guns" and rifles, but it's the most awesome Microsoft affiliated advertisement ever!

Well, see for yourself.

Dial-up users beware: it's a large file, but worth waiting for the download. Once it completes, start it over to get the full experience.

This has given me an idea...I want to stage my own random shooting with fake air "guns" in some random building...
