This cool spot for Nike, created by Wieden + Kennedy in Portland, illustrates that athletes, just like ordinary folk, get knocked down. It’s really about how quickly you get back up, and Nike obviously supports getting back up. ***SPOILER ALERT*** It says so right at the end of the commercial, ‘Just do it.’
