  • hawk0168, on 10/12/2007, -42/+13Terrorists are now attacking our water supply!
    • marcuschi, on 10/12/2007, -3/+83thought it might be lame but CGI is pretty impressive
    • Prototek, on 10/12/2007, -1/+77Big ups to the company that produced this commercial. Those are awesome special effects with the perfect amount of amateurishness. I thought it was real till the end.
    • coolian, on 10/12/2007, -8/+24GODDAMN.
    • pixelbasic, on 10/12/2007, -3/+24Nowadays, I don't believe anything.
    • Cwo655321, on 10/12/2007, -19/+6wow, that took fake.
      unfortunately there will be a lot of rtards that will take it upon themselves to try and recreate that, killing tons of fish and hopefully themselves.
    • jim1977, on 10/12/2007, -9/+3surfing + anarchy + internet + cgi + marketing = gay

      WOAH who would have thought?
    • topdeck55, on 10/12/2007, -8/+4But, think about the fish!

      :D
  • KMye, on 10/12/2007, -1/+108"I never would have thought it possible."

    It's not.
    • ncurses, on 10/12/2007, -2/+58Yeah. I was suffering from mild retardation when I wrote that, but it's still a cool video.
    • KMye, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14I kind of disbelievingly thought it might be real, too, when I saw this first (until the QS logo, or course ;) ). Great CG, concept and execution.
    • voxel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I was in a weird superposition of complete disbelief and utter amazement until I saw the Quicksilver logo... great commercial
    • ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12Honestly, it helped promote your story more than "COOL CGI!" would have. It made it feel cooler whenI watched it.
  • thenativeraver, on 10/12/2007, -4/+25http://www.google.com/search?q=inurl:digg.com+dynamite+surfing&hl=en&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=Md6&filter=0
    • clearrecrd, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8its only been on here 462 other times?
    • tinman79, on 10/12/2007, -7/+4Maybe its been submitted to digg before, but none of the results on the first page of your clever little link had more than 38 diggs, so not that many people probably saw it recently. Although I do realize that it is possible, lots saw it and no one dugg it. This submission already has more diggs than all the results on the first page anyway of the google search. Lots more times maybe, but not super recently. Settle down and let us enjoy (maybe) the clip that is new to some of us. Dupe police, settle down.
    • L0g1X, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2It's not because the submitter didn't know it was a dupe. The submitter knew it was a dupe, ignore the dupe warnings when submitting, and still submitted it.
  • tyywebb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+24Aw man I wish it was real though,
  • Nader, on 10/12/2007, -12/+3way to fake for me
  • magicaltrout, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3EXTREME SURFBOARDING!!!!!
  • alphaeno, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2If some kids blew up 4 sticks of tnt in what looks like downtown london, wouldnt you think you would have heard about it on the news?
  • cmoneyrox, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1everyone knows this is fake right?
    • VeganBob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11...but I saw it on the internet. It must be true.
  • dman99, on 10/12/2007, -5/+2The little camera movement right when the bomb exploded was too perfectly timed.
    No one ran in shock of the explosion.
    Professional Pyrotechnics.

    Good idea, though.

  • Casedot, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2at :44 seconds it looks like it switches the water from that lake or whatever to a beach and a real surfer...
  • nonokiaboy, on 10/12/2007, -10/+3THIS IS MADNESS!!
  • Markers, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Terrorist w/ surf boards... what has the world come to?
  • tolkan, on 10/12/2007, -7/+3The funny part about this is i recognized the location immediately. it is in Copenhagen, Denmark, there are 5 mini ponds in the city. I can't believe they did that, holy *****.
  • Shenaniganz08, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4better camera movement ( as in more jittery and a bit less focus) and this would have been reaaally believable

    +1 for sweet idea
  • brian4572, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1GAWWD DAMN!!!
  • Matic, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2he almost missed the wave, that would of sucked
  • IllBeBack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Jason Bourne could have stopped those ***** from exploding that and killing all of those poor fishies.

    Oh, it's fake? Well, he still coulda stopped 'em.
  • Zybergod, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Welcome to the Homeland Security Surveillance list.
  • truegodofwar, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2Chucking bombs into the lake of a metropolitan city. That's a ticket straight to gitmo.
  • comedianX, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2I'm sick of these "viral" videos. Companies need to realize that just because it looks like home video doesn't mean it's cool or will instantly get a million views on Youtube.
    • vhold, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10metacafe: 29,209 views.
      youtube: 281,805 views.

      It's getting there.
    • comedianX, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9Well, *****... never overestimate the intelligence of the people.
    • appleswitch, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1@comedianx

      Yea, I hate when companies produce some quality original content and then don't shove it in my face during the shows I already paid for. ( AKA Shut the ***** up, that was cool. )
  • tehKnivage, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0@comedianx, love that comment :p Anyway, nice idea and all (just so I'm not *too* off-topic) although all that was really good was the bomb exploding then it was sort of boring...
  • GadgetMaven, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I appreciate QS for entertaining me. Their goal is to build their brand awareness through this viral video and they've done a great job. Thank you for not trying to directly sell me something...your reward from me? WOM Marketing!
  • qazyhoods, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1congrats, you just earned +3 jail years
  • NSResponder, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Don't try this at home, kids. The concussion wave through the water could kill or seriously injure anyone within 100 yards of the explosion.

  • magic6435, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2son of a bitch i thought this was real.. now I'm really disappointed.
  • tearor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Think About the FISH!!
  • ray4389, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2How do we know it's not real?
  • Grimi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"So what you do last night"
    "Oh nothing just threw a bomb in to the lake and surfed the wave"
  • Bandersong, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0OMG, where do they do this sh*t? Why is it that I'm not there when this type of sh*t happens.
  • ardarvin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1So many duplicate stories. Geeze diggers, you have the collective memory of Corky.
  • surfallbeaches, on 06/06/2008, -0/+0Its great how many people thought this was real... HA
