About

In September 2006, an audition video for Microsoft’s XBOX360 commercial surfaced on YouTube. The clip shows two Argentinean actors—a man dressed in suit and an older lady who seems a bit confused to say the least—taking part in the most intense killing spree scene ever. Although our viral video star didn’t make the cut for casting, the audition footage received a lot of attention in Argentina and spawned many parodies/remixes on YouTube. In YTMND community, the series is also known as BAH.

Origin

The audition took place in Buenos Aires in early 2006 and the final version of commercial was briefly aired in Argentina before getting banned on the grounds of violence. In the beginning of the clip, you can see the guy from the audition for a hot second.

There is little information regarding the XBOX lady’s identity, but there is a YouTube clip identifying her name as Sara Solnik, a freelance actor who played a minor role in the 2004 film J-18. Unfortunately, Mrs. Solnik passed away in April 2007, according to the obituaries released by Argentinian Actors’ Association.

Firegamer. Google insights like to give no interest in the last month for things like that, but it’s often a trap.

But well, here’s the complete curve:

Damned. It doesn’t let me post that curve.
It showed that it was something great in 2006 then faded from 2007 to 2008 with some slight curves up in 2008 and 2009.

you have to select “2004 to present” and not “last 12 months”. it’ll be more clearer, I think.

I just wish she were my grandma. That would make holiday get-togethers so much more entertaining.
