Here's the new Jordan commercial which is now broadcasting on TV and on other media outlets like Youtube. In this commercial, Michael Jordan starts off by saying "Maybe It's My Fault" and leads on with several "Maybes" before telling the watcher that perhaps we're just making excuses for not being as successful as he was. Even though the commercial was just a commentary, the mood it gave off was inspiring. Another nice piece of work from the folks at Wieden + Kennedy and Jordan Brand.
Earlier today, we showed you the video of Kobe Bryant's jump over a moving Aston Martin. With all the talk surrounding Nike's uber impressive Hyperdunk sneaker, it is difficult not to believe in its technology. Many wondered whether it was authentic or not. After all, Los Angeles is within very close proximity to Hollywood. Kobe breaks down the truth before a recent Laker game.

As previously shown, Nike unveiled their new shoe for the Beijing Olympics, the Hyperdunk, which will be worn by Kobe and his USA teammates. A video has surfaced showing exactly how efficient these new shoes might become. It looks like Kobe is joined by fellow Laker Ronny Turiaf in a scene where Kobe attempts to jump over an Aston Martin while wearing the Hyperdunk. Whether this is actually Kobe or a stunt double remains to be seen, but from the looks of it these sneakers can definitely take off.
As previously mentioned, the World Wide Bape Heads Show which will have performances by Kanye West, N.E.R.D., Nigo and the Teriyaki Boyz will be taking place in Hong Kong on April 10th.
