IDEO’s Global Chain Reaction Experience may just be the most impressive Rube Goldberg Machine built to date.

The chain, which fifty people put together across eight worldwide locations in six different time zones on three continents, contains everything from a flaming column of helium bubbles and a cell phone dialing hot dog to a poll dancing doll and a Tickle-Me Elmo, as well as everything in between.

This clip, part of The Denver Shop’s Hollarado video, is sure to make Will a well known name in the future.

And here’s a few more sections from the Hollarado video, which looks like it’s going to be a classic.
