What has attached itself to this woman's head?! 

How is that even possible? Is there steel scaffolding in there?

That UP commercial has one of the strangest collections of people I have ever seen O_O Did you see the guy before that woman? Overalls, sideburns, and a bigass winter tuque

For the most part they just look like average people, obviously UP employees and not actors, but that woman stands out because it looks like her hair is trying to eat her head. I grew up in that era, and I've never seen anything like it. 
It looks more like late 60's to me based on the styles, maybe '70 - '72 at the latest.

In that case, I'll have to try it for mountains instead of plaster.
I just thought the diesel horn scared her.

1. Joke's over, that's Will Ferrell in drag, right?
2. With that hair and face, she would scare me into celibacy!
3. No wonder the person behind her at the Elvis Impersonator Contest couldn't see anything-big hair!
4. Halloween is only 2 months away!
5. She just got her federal penalty notice for not buying health insurance under Obamacare!
