"Don't block the product!"

It’s not surprising. If we learned anything from Dereck Zoolander, it’s that a lot of models can’t read.

Also not to get into any freak gasoline fights.

The product is supposedly 72" long. It looks like if he stretched his legs out straight, his feet would match up with the bottom of the mat pretty evenly, but the top would still barely come to his shoulders.

Either that dude's 7 feet tall, or the product measurements are a lie. I thought it was a common tactic among companies to show their "big" products being used by particularly short people to make them look larger than they are. Marketing fail.

Probably 72 inches from seam to seam when it's uninflated. Once inflated, it shrinks in as it expands and ends up in the high 60's.

That sounds about right for what one of these air mats is compared to me. I'd be 6 inches taller than this mat.

Took me way too long to realize that he's not laying on the freaking MAT.

And is it just me or does it look like his lower torso has been photoshopped onto his upper torso?

Sure is. Econo camper Mat should know that jeans aren't great for camping and getting grass stains out of his jeans is not going to be cheap. Very Un econo camper Mat move.

Just gotta bring your crappy worn out jeans camping. This guy is clearly wearing his Sunday finest, so I agree with you there.

I thought that was the joke, but then I noticed he's not on the mat. And then the comment about the size of the mat!
