This interactive video introduces viewers to the main character, Danbob Smith-Jones, who brings viewers into his garage to see his newly created machine, the Hybrid Collider. Danbob urges viewers to type in two words to form a "hybrid." Viewers will experience the collision of the two words, which results in a variety of funny video outcomes from outside Danbob's garage.  

"YouTube users will have fun entering two different words that form a 'hybrid' and then watching the many different hilarious videos," said Mary-Ellen Lacasse, director of Shaver Marketing, BIC Consumer Products USA. "With many different possible outcomes, viewers can enter thousands of different word combinations and have a new interactive experience each time."
