hahaha I love that!
pretty good!
did not see anything like this for the 3g
"3G" isn't a device!
We know. It's a status symbol.
Have you seen that on the 2g?
Not sure what I'm more irritated with; the fact that he referred to the iPhone as "the 3g" or that I knew that's what he was talking about.
The 3G what?
Whoa. I wasn't expecting that....
Really well done, especially how the average unboxing video starts and then.... the madness.....
Classic!
I think my favorite part is how he wasn't impressed. And then the video cuts out when he gets to the phone itself.
Too, too, too funny. Simply amazing.
OK, I wasn't expecting that. Lol
For a split second I thought it was all plausible... that is until the miniture marching band appeared.
It would be epic if you pressed the red button and -bam- the box transforms in front of your mortal, undeserving eyes.
I swear to God I've seen a lot of things. But that. was. AWESOME.
Sorry bout your table.
Nice phone. Well done samsung. What's up with all shit in the background tho, such a nice phone should be unboxed in a nice clean clear bright lit area so the shots are clear.
did that look like a normal unboxing to you?
You should be shot in a nice clean clear bright lit area just so it would be nice and easy to see. Hell we could have a marching band for that too.
I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be like that.. have you ever seen an unboxing video in a bright ass white room, with nothing but a table, a camera, and the product in it? :)
lemme guess, you didnt even watch the video then just said what u figured there would be for you to complain about
Lemmings for the win!
is it just me or does anyone wondered what if you buy something from samsung with a bigger screen, say a plasma tv
will they will open like that except with real life-size people? specifically real life-size girls?
I don't think there going to ship you alive girl man. Nice try but your gonna have to play the field for girls like the rest of us
It wasn't until the last word in your comment that I clearly saw where you are going with this!
Can you imagine the mess that they would leave though? It would be horrible, and the horse?
@)law( I think he just wants real life-size girls; he didn't mention anything about them being alive...
yea have you seen The Wire season 2?
ha ha ha that was funny!
they did a great job, i was cracking up.
Cool box. Way to go samsung! You beat out both apple and microsoft in the cool box awards.
i thought the box was going to transform into sum kind of transformers robot.
Nuke those Lemmings...
Oh No!
I'm calling amnisty international right now! Killing off helpless 'borrowers' for no reason what so ever. Just because there small doesn't mean they don't have human rights!! I'm calling PETA to about those poor slaughtered horse's!
Reminds me of that movie Night at the museum
Reminds me of that movie My Dinner with Andre.
Nice, although I'd add blackjack and hookers. In fact, forget the unboxing.
And forget the blackjack!
Ah, screw the whole thing
"I will shoot her with my railgun when she cooomes, yes, I'll shoot her with my railgun when she comes, She'll be coming round the mountain, She'll be coming round them mountain and I'll shoot her with my railgun when she coooomes"
Isn't that what the hookers are for?
I'm Convinced now that cellphones do emit radiation
Well, the box does, but I don't think there's anything conclusive here about the phone.
A lotta boujou tracking, haha.
Pretty nicely done, needs an occlusion pass to add some shadows.
For some reason i expected for that to be a rickroll button......that would be about 3.14x more epic.
With a little Rick Astley popping out and dancing.
Genius.
That's one bad actor...
Not there was much acting to do, but I think he played his part as well as you could expect someone to...
I quite wasn't expecting that
Well Done Samsung!
NICE! I loved it.
This was just simply great!
must be awsome to unbox stuff when you're drunk or high though!
