Wonderful! I am a retired engineer, but I have not done anything like that. Inspiring!

I wonder who was the lucky one to have all that set up in their house?

That's a fairly straight copy of a British Honda car TV advert:



Note that this ad is in one unedited take and it's all real, not CGI (except apparently the background). Cost a fortune, took ages and won them an Ad of the Year prize.

Married to a retired engineer, I thought it was really fun. But, in our house, there would have been at least an led, solar-powered light show at the end.
So, as an English major, retired from business career, I would say, anticlimactic ending??
What say you?

OMG, I was expecting quite something for an ending, but what actually came was anticlimatic at the least...! Great setup though!!!
