VOTW: The weirdest seatbelt commercial ever
I saw this on Mercedes-Benz Press Facebook.com feed. They had it labeled at the “most beatiful seatbelt commercial ever”.
Respectfully, that seems like a rubbish statement. First, seatbelts are not beautiful, they are not a typical target for advertisers. That said, they are function. I suppose the creators of this ad probably thought, “let’s find a new way to demonstrate the usefulness of seatbelts, other than using the time-honored ‘crash-test’ scene”. I guess you can applaud the creativity, but let’s condemn the impact. I seriously doubt anyone is paying much attention to this advert – except us.
Enjoy!
