The clip is actually a Japanese commercial to chewing gum

This extremely funny video shows a giant cat giving a businessman a ride to work. The fluffy feline carries the man around the streets of Tokyo and delivers him right in front of his office

The clip is actually a Japanese commercial for Lotte Fit's gum and aims to highlight the fact that the gum's flavor lasts for fifty minutes, while the background song's refrain tells us that chewing can put us in a good mood.

The gum manufacturer is clearly aware of people's fondness for all things related with cats, so they exploited the idea and created this ad that features a 10-foot (3-meter) tall fluffy moggy.

The man looks very happy with his new means of transportation, as the huge cat carries him to work in feline fashion. It makes me wonder, what are they putting into that gum?

I don't really understand the connection between chewing gum and cats, and it doesn't make me go out and buy a pack of gum, but the commercial is certainly awesome.

It would appear that most Japanese commercials are a little weird and insane, and some seem to have absolutely nothing to do with the products they are intended to promote, but the result is usually charming.
