I saw their promoted tweet about this contest the night before and primed a tweet for when it aired live. I had a number just pop into my head: 206. Number of bones in the human body, felt good enough for me.
I just checked, and, to my best ability to determine, I believe I was the first legit 206 guess.
When I went and did a basic manual count, I came in closer to 216 or 220 or so, but it's really hard to tell, and when I did a painstaking frame by frame count, I came in closer to 221, but there are a few I'm _really_ confused about in terms of being a repeat or not.
And counting the bottles coming out of the trunk was hell... I used the promo tweet where Cena is counting out loud and up to 36 as a shorthand for one of my guesses. In my frame by frame analysis, I counted 45 but 3 are flying out when it first opens up, and then 42 more join in the next cut.
Similarly, on the final look back after the end marquee, there are 2 on the side that I don't know if they're recounts or not, and then the gearshift and flag itself are... two, which put me closer to 224/225. There's one other scene where I wasn't sure about as many as 5 possible dupes, though.
The "don't count the same bottle twice" gimmick is infuriating because it's really difficult to ascertain what's bedrock in the scene. They use the roller coaster example as 3 that persist throughout the entire commercial, so all bets are off.
Here's my notes if you want to insanely check my work:
Car: 4 wheels
License plate: 5
36 opening frame

facing car: hood = 5 right marquee = 2 pakace = 1 left box office = 4
passenger holding: 1 = 141
passenger bottle = 1 behind = 8 = 150
key chain: = 1 cena hold = 1 = 152
sunglasses: 2 = 154
cena talking = bg 2 = 156
back of car scene: 8? 5 possible dupes
trunk first open 3 fly out
trunk wide shot right side lit marquees: 7
left neon = 1
building neon = 2
flying out = 45 - 3 flying out already = 42 = 219
final marquee: 2
final look back: 2 on side?
