It's a good ad but I have a question to the scientists on this board (since I'm clearly not one):

Isn't the term centrifugal force used improperly here? (I know it's just an ad so who really cares -- I'm just curious.) Centrifugal force implies something rotating, not accelerating, right?

Maybe the ad writers probably couldn't come up with a similarly funny ad if they talked about Newton's laws or whatever...

That's actually a VW ad from Germany (look at the seats--not E60!) that somebody doctored up.

And as Rudy points out, unless the car was doing doughnuts, not a correct use of that word!!

You'Re right, Rudy!

And the dog is shown in an impossible position! I doubt a dog can do this with the legs!

But a great ad anyways! I love it!

You would be suprised how some dog's can bend they legs. Or maybe this dog has already sufered some injuries!

Straight acceleratrion it would be inertia of mass and You really need rotation move for centrifugical force.
