The Nanny State on steroids. I wonder how many young , future cooks would be deterred by this reenactment. We hear there are more. Can you imagine the doing a reenactment of children and matches. They will probably show the family in flames running out of the house on fire with the announcer saying ” Don’t Play With Matches, if you do you may see your mother a little hot under the collar” and have the mother run by the screen with her hair on fire. I should work production for preventit.capreventit.ca can sure scare the sh*t out of you!

mpress, Excellent story mpress.
I don't want to date myself but I remember as a kid watching ads like this on TV, that terrified me, only later when I was like 10 years old I figured out what a farce in scare mongering some special interest groups love to spread to the public. This ad though a possibility, can happen in just about any scenario, for instance playing video games and going into seizures with the fast action. Or making a sandwich in the kitchen and a terrorist jihad burst in and being startled you let out a big fart near your gas stove and the resulting explosion kills everyone. I mean come on, reality was never a Canadian Advertisers strong point.

That advert is extremely creepy, but the slip-and-fall stunt she pulls off is just amazing, you gotta admit! Not in the same category as the car chase from Death Proof, but still. Simple and effective, it makes me wince every time I see it.
