The Task: Assemble a hamburger consisting of no less than: one precooked meat patty, two vegetables and two condiments sandwiched between two bun halves.

National Championship...who knew.

You know it.

So I previously pointed to this: [The Best Rube Goldberg Machine] as the best Rube Goldberg machine.  That may be...for amateurs, but this commercial by Guiness is awesome.

Too bad it is not a TRUE Rube Goldberg machine.  There were many sequences spliced together.

The advert took a week to film, with some of the sequences having to be reshot up to 15 times.

New Guiness Advert: Giant domino village

Still it's a fun commercial.

Some people really need to get a life.

So there are a tonne of Rube Goldberg machine videos out on the web, some quite good some mediocre.  The most famous one is the Honda commercial where every part of the car becomes part of the contraption. 

This one is exemplary.  It may not be the best...but it is dang close.
