Default Pythagorean Switch

This is such a waste of time.
This is a small clip of the most amazing Japan TV-show ever. It's an educational show, mostly about math I guess. Here comes the nice part. The start and end of every episode has a Rube Goldberg machine, afterwards showing a Japanese text "Pitagora Suicci", meaning Pythagorean Switch, hence the name. Watch out, though: the jingle at the end is annoying.

GO. THERE. NOW.
(PS: Honda also had a commercial based on this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SlMhFOwozoQ. It took 7 years to make. and is 2 min. long.)

This is cool. Reminds me of MOUSETRAP. I remember the Honda advert, I just cynically assumed they did on a computer...or something. Can't hear the sound sadly on my computer.
I do like the phrase Pythagorean Switch though. Everyone who reads this thread has to relevantly insert it into a normal conversation within a week! Or else.

good for you, you're excused.
Hang on! Was it in context?
I suppose you could just say "hey look at this Pythagorean Switch on Youtube or have you seen that....."
Bit of a get-out clause isn't it?
Wonkles!
