Web Video of the Week: the Cadbury Gorilla
Thursday April 17, 2008
This 90 second video has taken the United Kingdom by storm. Every day, over half a million viewers have logged on to see this video since it released in November of 2007. Is this really Phil Collins in a gorilla suit? Is it a gifted primate really drumming to "In the Air Tonight"? See the video and decide for yourself... hundreds of blogs have popped up discussing this imaginative advertisement.
That really is a gorilla, I’m sure of it. OK it might have taken some time training him but he looks as old as Phil Collins so hence he must have had plenty of time to practice.
That video looks real. Is it real? No idea but “In the air tonight” is an absolute classic, and Phil Collins would probably have been proud to see such an apt and talented pupil
