Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I found this on YouTube, but I have to admit... How is this possible

I don't care if it's possible or not. It's lovely. :)

I suppose that, if you build, test and perfect each stage individually before you link them then it's definitely possible. Just takes a lot of patience, practice and re-trying.

It isn't possible, it is multiple separate runs edited together and possibly some AI?

You'll love this old Honda ad. No AI, just many takes until it 'just worked.'

I remember that. :) I was fascinated at the time - and still am.
Of course, a much simpler sequence was in the board game Mousetrap, which we played as kids. It didn't always work, but quite often it did.

That was excellent.  
Being a bit of a car guy, I guess I would like that one, but still!
