Cool Videos: Crouching Tiger, Mr. Bean

Mr. Bean is awesome. Whether it be the near silent British television series or his big screen outings in BEAN and MR. BEAN’S HOLIDAY, Rowan Atkinson‘s signature creation is a comedy masterpiece. If you aren’t familiar, I suggest you go to YouTube right now and search Mr. Bean. For everyone else, you have got to see this.

The latest in a series of Snickers commercials featuring people who don’t feel like themselves and are embodied by actors like the late Robin Williams or Roseanne, this ad features an overly elaborate setup featuring Chinese martial artists flying across rooftops. One of the acrobatic warriors didn’t have his Snickers bar so he feels like Mr. Bean. It is totally insane and ridiculous and I almost thought it was a fan made video, but that is definitely Rowan Atkinson.
