This is a car ad from Germany. During editing the people making the commercial noticed a strange, shadowy mist like apparition following alongside the car that was not present during the shoot. Anyway the ad never ran because everyone involved in the production was so freaked out. About halfway through the clip if you look closely you can see a cloud cross over the road and then it follows the car the rest of the way through the shot...pretty creepy!

    These things are getting old. I had my sound turned off, just in case.

    Some of us are still far too gullible to see it coming. At least I got to scare the crap out of a bunch of people I work with!

    this scared me good, but I had a coworker come and look at it who is, well, sorta jumpy anyway.

    I started to play it and told her she need to look really close so she could she the ghost and I turned up the volume a touch. She jumped at least a foot of the ground and screamed really loud. Everyone ran in here. It was the funniest thing I have seen while at work.

    lol!!! rofl!!! I'm not sure I saw it followin' along side the car, but I did jump about 2 inches back. However, I'm glad I didn't wait 'til tomorrow to watch it as I almost did since I'm going to bed now.

    wish I knew German....
