This video is a commercial spot for 3Com poking fun at Cisco network reliability. Set to an energetic instrumental rock track with driving guitar riffs and drums, it shows office workers performing outrageous physical stunts to kill time during network downtime. Around 00:05, a guy performs backflips down a hallway, followed by someone generating plasma in a microwave with a grape, and employees engaging in tube duels across cubicles. Later on, at 00:50, a woman contorts her body to fit completely inside a small plastic storage bin, while others perform breakdancing and balance tricks in the lobby.
The punchline lands at 01:06 with text asking what your employees will do when the Cisco network goes down, suggesting a switch to 3Com. It is a fun piece of corporate tech rivalry from the 1990s/early 2000s, and the impressive physical tricks and lighthearted humor make it surprisingly entertaining to watch.
