I forgot who the original poster was, but if you can find the quicktime
of the Apple commercial "what is newton?" they have both of those in
that clip. You can't hear the crumple and it's kind of small and goes

I think I found whatisnewton.mov at the hongkong newton users group
site, but the url escapes me.
Laters,
