How Many Times Did Apple Make This Kid Lick the iPad?

Keeping with custom , Apple hasreleased an adpromotingits new iPadandeducational tools for bookman and teachersafter announcing the updated computer hardware and computer software during its Education Department event . The heartwarming commercial message is focus around “ Group Three , ” a cadre of five students who use an iPad to complete a year labor about gravity . The advertizing , while highlighting the iPad ’s new Pencil support and educational tools , raises another , perhaps even more significant interrogative pertain the actions of group member Thomas .

During the creation of Group Three ’s report on gravitation , the small fry dropped an egg and a Citrullus vulgaris from a bridge , recording the simultaneous encroachment with an iPad propped up by a backpack . On impingement , the bits of Citrullus vulgaris and bollock mint the iPad , both castrate its record angle and cover it in fruity watermelon matter . It is here , in this assembly of compeer , free from grownup oversight , where Thomas makes his move .

Thomas takes it upon himself to seize the iPad off the ground and right away cream its aluminium exterior , speckled in watermelon chunks . It all happens in one beatify scene , after which Thomas and his peers are awestruck by the captured slow - move footage .

But I ’ve get some concerns about Thomas ’ unhygienic conduct , even in the fictional population of this Apple commercial . Think about it : He licked an iPad . A communal iPad , I might add together . It ’s not the boy ’s personal tablet , but one shared among his schoolmates , one that will seemingly be handed to another student after Thomas is promoted from one class to the next . One that ’s probably guide to another student during respite when they need to partake in hilarious YouTube video with one another , or during class when someone misplaces ( or breaks ) the iPad entrusted to them and is forced to share with another schoolmate . While we can clearly discern his motives ( watermelon is a pretty tasty fruit ) , we ’re still stumped about a sure logistical component .

Beautiful commercial message are n’t made of serendipity and fall watermelons . They ’re constructed , like a high - rising edifice , by throngs of masses process in concert toward a singular destination . One of those goals involved Thomas , a veridical human person , solve an iPad , an inedible product fabricated out of aluminum and glass , among other thing . How many multiplication did a director pace into underframe after Thomas ’ licking was hold unserviceable , lacking in feeling , or missing motivation ? How many watermelon were lost during filming , swash to smithereens by the laws of physics and one caller ’s quest to capture the platonic ideal of someone assimilate flora matter from the backside of a tablet computing machine ?
