It's because I'm king of the world. And physics makes some of those motions impossible. Why would Honda spend that much time and money on film, cameramen, teamsters, artists, and scientists to do the same thing a team of professional graphic artists could do?

nice...although i still dont eleive the tire part because eve after it hit the second or third tires, they still kept on rolling up...

It has to do with weighting the tires.

It works.

Think about it, you have a circular object; you attach a weight directly on the meridian and then balance the object, so you've got a weight at 0 degrees. Now bump the object slightly and the weight moves forward. Inertia takes over and the weight keeps moving forward and takes the tire with it.

Physics people forgive me, I did my best.

Snopes verified it too.
