Rube Goldberg Machines

I love advertisements with Rube Goldberg machines in them. They’re damn cool. Everyone remembers the Honda Cog commercial, but how about this new advertisement for a rack. I love it, especially because there’s a whole point to the Rube Goldberg machine, gives you a reason to buy their product and stuff. Pretty cool.
According to Wikipedia,
A Rube Goldberg machine is an incredibly overengineered apparatus that performs a very simple task in very indirect and convoluted fashion (thus absurdly violating the principle of parsimony).
