That was a really good video. Smart and with a twist. Nice job.
You just know why this guy doesn’t have a job.
All staged. You know an innocent victim to any of this jerk’s actions would be at least a “WTF are you doing??” if not an outright smack in the jaw… not just dusting themselves off and going on like nothing happened.
very clever!
OvenMaster
How do you smack the wind in the face? Did you miss the whole pretense of the commercial?
Okay, Jerk-Face didn’t say it so I’ll have to say it myself. This guy is a really bad, just a god-awful mime.

Thats the best kind!
Cured my insomnia.
Even odder, this guy sounds like arnold schwarzenegger in phoney french accent! :P…
How’d you like to wake up in the middle of the night and see this guy standing at the end of your bed. Yow!
Very clever Ad!!!
From where? It’s for the German government, but has an English feel to it…
Maybe it’s this European green energy movement. Germany just ended the 6 month commission in front of EU…
I thought it was really cool with a great twist at the end.
OvenMaster – Are you an idiot. All staged?? Of course it was staged! It’s a damn commercial! Don’t burn yourself in the oven.
#3 – It’s staged? Fuck me with a pasta spoon. I never would have guessed.
WOW!!! one if the most interesting and creative adds I’ve seen in a long time

You should be ashamed. You just caused my sphincter to tighten so hard I got an ass-ache.
I chucked all the way through it. Good stuff.
Like Joao asks in #11: Why is it in English? Did the German government make versions in several languages? I guess that would be a given for ads intended to be shown across the EU…
Funny how it reminds me of the “worst job ever” video – and it took me awhile to find a link that didn’t have crappy audio.

Actually, I chuckled – as in mild laughter – all the way through it… not chucked.
Dear The Wind,
I understand your loneliness but I should let you know that they are exploiting you. They are using you to cash in money. Are you being well compensated or do you just like wearing black all the time?
Sincerely yours,
The Fire
#18 how much wood would a woodchuck chuck…ey?
#17 – I was worried you upchucked all the way through.

#16 – You should be ashamed. You just caused my sphincter to tighten so hard I got an ass-ache.
Well, as we all know from years of experience… When being fucked in the ass, it’s good to use smooth, sterile, and cylindrical objects. A pasta spoon, like a rake, a live carp, a bicycle tire pump, or a ferret, will not feel good at all.
If you really are looking for an exotic experience, try one of those giant red, white, and blue Popsicles, but be careful of the wooden stick when it melts….
Its Clockwork Orange meets windmills.
OFTLO – You’re thinking of the old torture where they freeze barbed wire in ice, shove it up your ass and then let it melt. OWEEEEE!
#26 – It doesn’t happen often… But that freaked me out 🙂
