Craig, forgive me, but I see no humor what-so-ever in that commercial. Am I missing something?

Watch it again and pay attention to the background!

EVERYTHING that happens in the background (and I mean EVERYTHING) is a pretty strong metaphor for taking a massive slam!

The I-beam coming out of the window, the boulders piling off the platform, and especially the dump truck dropping a giant pile!

Had I seen this commercial on Saturday Night Live, I'd have sworn it was a hoax commercial.

PS It's even more funny than the voiceovers at the end of Viagara commercials warning us that "Erections lasting more than four hours may require the services of a prostitute..."
