I'm pretty sure, that this isn't real. Why on earth should Kobe risk getting some serious injury or even death. Funny video though.
Hahahha, good camera tricks huh? lol Wanted to see if anyone catches it, but it looks like the car is closer and kobe is further meaning he was to the side of the car. That way, he shows he can really jump over it without the risk of injury

If you look carefully, Kobe's left foot is closer to the camera than the right wheel of the car. Also, the car seems a little small in my opinion. Since the car is further away, it should look smaller anyways. That's my take on it.
Looks real to me. If you look at his position based on the shadow that he's standing on, you can tell the car goes underneath kobe. Sure, his left foot is closer, and the car may not be under his left foot, but it sure as hell looks like it's going underneath the rest of his body.
It's a spoof of where Nike actually filmed a commercial of Cristiano Ronaldo on foot (in their new cleats) racing a Bugatti. It was a short distance race where they had to back track too. Since the car would take too much time to turn, the Bugatti had to do half the leg in reverse. Ronaldo won. <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vv2dkd1ZiO0&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Vv2dkd1ZiO0&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div> Nike also has another video where Wayne Rooney drew a target on the camera, volleyed the ball and kicked it into the camera. <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1FTXhyJszQ4&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1FTXhyJszQ4&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div> -Petey
That's a helluva commercial, but I doubt its real. Kobe'd have to be all kinds of stupid to risk his body doing something so pointless.
That was fuckin' awesome, despite it being fake. That soccer one with Wayne Rooney is fuckin' bad ass.
All I gotta say is... M-V-P! M-V-P! M-V-P! (I think I just instinctively chant that for the past couple years everytime he does something badass).
Saw it on TNT the other night, and as real as it may look, it's more than likely fake. For some reason, I don't think Kobe is dumb enough to pull a stunt like that during the season...
Nike do the best ads ever. Those 3 above and this has to be the best ever <div><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/puIg1R85QPQ&"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/puIg1R85QPQ&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" /></embed></object></div>
Norm Nixon interviewed Kobe before tonites game and asked him about it, and Kobe said it was fake .. he said 'it's hollywood baby'
