Nike wants you to believe Wayne Rooney is on Target

Here’s the latest commercial from the Swoosh. You probably recognize the guy in the video, a fellow named Wayne Rooney, who apparently has accuracy from 50 yards away because he wears shoes with a Swoosh. The camera is an artistic representation of Tim Howard. Is the video real or is the Swoosh up to its old tricks?

    Real or not, Rooney is a beast and could probably do it anyway.
  • Marcello
    I dont doubt that he can do it, but on the first try? Maybe.
  • Filmed at the Nike complex in Beaverton, Oregon? Might explain why Rooney was spotted in an Irish pub in Portland a month or so ago...
  • Ian
    It's very good digital, but its digital. Cool commercial, though.
  • Peter
    Next World Cup England needs to make sure that they paint targets on the goal for Roo.
  • Jake
    It's real, of course. Not only is he that accurate, he also made the ball rotate just perfectly so that the swoosh on the ball is what actually hits the camera lens.
