The clip is from a commercial for the Toyota Tacoma. The whole thing is at
http://www.methodstudios.com/mot690 , complete with the legalese caption
identifying the event as a dramatization, and the catch-phrase "Tacoma -
meteor-proof" (before this actually gets aired the lawyers will probably
make them add some small print that says "not really".

Okay, now I know that the video clip IS from (or at least related to) that
movie. Both the video
clip and one of the trailers show the same beer-holding redneck in a plaid
flannel shirt and a
baseball cap. Looks like it isn't actual footage from the film, though, but
instead an instance of
viral marketing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viral_marketing sort of like
the viral marketing clips
set free onto the net for the movie Serenity (from the late, great Firefly)
