Saw it and couldn't believe it.
"Better never falls in your lapA team of elite skydivers attempt to form the letters H, O, N, D and A in sequence, within a three minute time limit.
Originally shown on Channel 4 at 8.10pm on 29th May 2008, this is the first ever truly live three minute TV ad shown in the UK.
Difficult is worth doing."

That's just awesome. Honda has broadcast some excellent ads over the years (and the UK ads are way better than the ones they show in the US) and to attempt a live commercial like this takes some balls.

Pretty cool! 
Reminds me of the old "Cog" ad that Honda ran when the last Accord was introduced. Also, I can't forget the ad they did with the choir doing all those sound effects.
(I have both of them saved to disk somewhere if anyone needs to see them again...)
