The company has accidentally created a website that needs tens of scrolls to reach its end

As you probably heard by now, Microsoft and Aston Martin have recently joined forces for a collaboration focused on cloud services that would see the famous car manufacturer use some of the products designed by the software giant.

That's less important today, however, because what we have here is the result of this collaboration: an Aston Martin-themed website hosted on the Microsoft.com domain that comes with what was supposed to be a very catchy story and an appeal design requiring users to scroll down to find out all details.

But as the editors over at layervault.com are reporting, something went incredibly wrong during the website designing process, so you now have to scroll like hell to reach the end of the website. To be honest, I refreshed the page several times to make sure that there's nothing wrong with my browser and I even counted the scrolls I needed to reach the end of the page.

A total of 57 full scrolls (plus/minus another five) with a standard Microsoft mouse were needed to get to the see the end of the page, you might imagine my frustration when trying to do the same thing on my laptop's trackpad.

If this website was designed to be eye-candy, I'm sorry Microsoft, but you failed to do it big time. And my scrolling finger is here to support my statement.
