Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Bikes: many.

I would think it was shot with video, edited to grab the crucial frames, and the "animation" was created therefrom. I did a similar thing for a website back in the dark ages before flash...

it's called stop animation... most commonly seen on sesame street skits and other programs. so yes it is a marketable skill.

Um, did you know it's not Santa who brings the presents at Christmas?
This is obviously not a video, but a series of still shots put together into a gif file. A 10-year-old can do it in half an hour once the still shots are done.
The amazing thing is how precisely they made it. I suppose the jump frames were made with the "rider" jumping across above his buddy. Maybe they filmed it with a videocamera and then picked the frame in which he is right above the other guy at the right height. A massive amount of work for a joke project, but well worth it
