Intel Engineers Shot Out of Cannon, Recreate “Intel Inside” Chimes

intelcannonguyHere’s a nice distraction from Intel’s mounting legal woes: A video of five helmeted Intel (INTC) engineers in Finland being shot from a cannon Gonzo-the-great style at an arrangement of massive tubular bells in a bid to bodily recreate the “Intel Inside” chimes.

“All copy and videos are part of a marketing campaign for Intel® Sponsors of Tomorrow™. No Intel employees were harmed in the making of this film.
