Skating babies in Evian commercial, already online sensation

Not going to lie, I am easily amused. I’ve been known to nearly fall off furniture after seeing something funny (most recently, this America’s Got Talent audition almost made me topple off my couch). But while perusing Facebook during lunch, I found the following video posted by my friend Jane. Watch it. Now.
