Yeah, but what got that muffler to roll so many times?

just looked at the video again. watch the tires carefully. you can see how they "accelerate" once tipped. the weight mounted to the top kicks in. the second tire, wiggles a bit back and forth after it hits the third. that's because the weight is now on the bottom and rocks the tire a bit back and forth.

the muffler is the same :-) there's a weight inside. look closely at the movement of the muffler. you can see that it is NOT rolling at a consistent speed. it "wobbles" as the weight inside comes up to the OT again. (what's OT "Oberer Totpunkt" in english?). aha, looked it up, it's TDC (top dead center).

also, watch the background and the wood-floor. they set it up in a large warehouse. the floor looks continues. the back is not a wall but just white screen panels placed with a offset and back-lighting. the whole set looks continues and genuine to me.
amazing!
