That Stupid Taco Bell Evander Holyfield Commercial

Readership, it seems that commercials have been pissing me off very much lately. Here's the latest addition to the "Stupid Fucking Commercials that Need to Never be Aired Again" category:



Now let's look at this logically. Evander Holyfield is 6'2". Basically, I can look his one-and-one-half-ear-havin' self directly in the eye (I'm 6'1"). But if you see this commercial, they make him look, as YouTube user dclem8 said, "like Andre the Giant."

Now, since whenever I go to a fast food place (which is NEVER Taco Bell because they scientifically engineer THE SHITS into ALL of their food), me and my 6'1" self never make the person behind the counter - NAY, THE COUNTER ITSELF! - look like they were stolen from a Barbie dollhouse, there has to be some shenaniganery going on here. The way I see it, there are two ways that this could have been achieved.

One, there was a little special cinematography going on. There are ways for the camera to be positioned in certain ways that either make things look a lot bigger or a lot smaller than they actually are (mind out of the gutter, readership).

Two, they made the counter a lot smaller than the counter usually is, and then, on top of that, got a small actress (I think her name is Paige? according to the YouTube comments anyway), and then lowered the floor directly behind the counter so that in addition to being short as hell, she was even lower in comparison to the counter and Holyfield.

There was a little bit of both probably.

But what the hell. HE'S NOT THAT FUCKIN' TALL.

And yes, that commercial pissed me off enough to go balls-out here.

Stay classy
