Just Do It

   Supposedly from Forbes magazine:
   
   Nike has a television commercial for hiking shoes that was shot in
   Kenya using Samburu tribesmen. The camera closes in on one tribesman
   who speaks in native Maa. As he speaks, the Nike slogan "Just Do It"
   appears on the screen.
   
   Lee Cronk, an anthropologist at the University of Cincinatti, says the
   Kenyan is really saying, "I don't want these. Give me big shoes."
   
   Says Nike's Elizabeth Dolan, "We thought nobody in America would know
   what he said."
