For A-Trak & Tommy Trash's new "Tuna Melt" video, director Ryan Staake built a Rube Goldberg contraption that would make Pee Wee Herman jealous. The impressive machine, which spans multiple floors and staircases, cues a flip book animation, a paper airplane flight, and uses roughly one million colored tongue depressors to assemble a tuna melt sandwich.  

As an added bonus, the producers assembled a behind-the-scenes clip to show a fraction of the prep work and trials to make a machine like this one work.
