Nike Ad - 2010 FIFA Worldcup

With over 7.8 million views in its first week, the Nike Write the Future ad for the World Cup has broken all viral video records for views. While  initially pulled by YouTube for copyright issues, the video is alive and well again for everyone to see.

Even more interesting is that the previous holder of the viral record was another Nike Ad released earlier in the year and reaching 6.3 million views. It is a much more somber ad featuring the ghost of Tiger Woods’ Dad speaking to him and definitely not as uplifting and exciting as the World Cup ad. Here is the Earl and Tiger ad, however for pure entertainment value there are plenty of spoofs on the Earl and Tiger ad that may be worth killing some time.
