I have that video, I used Imesh to download it but Im not sure what I typed in to find it, it was either "Lance Armstrong" or "Nike commercials" I like the new one that came out where Lance is riding alone and he goes through the city past a hospital and it ends when a little boy tries to catch up to him

Those are cool but what's the deal with the piano one playing during the olympics? It's where lance is cruising through China and the dude is playing the piano. Lance and the pianist keep switching places and then Lance walks out to the piano to sit down. The camera pans up and then it ends with the pianist playing. The caption is something like "How fast are you?" I'm a big fan of allegories but what the hell are they trying to get across? I just don't get it.

ya, the caption is 'your faster than you think' there was one with marion jones and a little girl running cuase she was scared, i dont think its nike's best ad campaign, but the more lance the better

Its called "Magnet" here's the link http://www.nike.com/wearyellow/seelanceride/main.html

Actually, I think the one he is referring to is not magnet, it is the one where he says 'this is my body, i can do whatever i want with it. etc etc.' At the same time, they are taking blood out of his arm. It is only 2.1mb, if it does not attach to this board, I can email it to whoever wants it.

btw does anyone have the new ad with the concert pianist and lance changing places??? I have been trying to find it without much luck.

cheers.
braso.

ya hes talking about the earlier one, i think its 99 maybe

Some good Lance clips here including the "What are you on?" ad from Nike:

"This is my body.
And I can do whatever I want to it.
I can push it.
Study it.
Tweak it.
Listen to it.
Everybody wants to know what I'm on.
What am I on? I'm on my bike six hours a day busting my ass.
What are YOU on?"

If you look at the ad closely, as Lance steams up to the giant temple place and dismounts, his bike is caught by a guy near the door. You see that the bike is actually an old steel monster (and not a slick TT bike). I think the ad is meant to be about the Chinese pianist being late for the recital - and in his head he's giving it everything just like Lance. He manages to make it to the concert right on time - which ties in with the tagline "You're faster than you think."
