had me crackin up

too real lol xD

It may sound cliché but Americans respect power and confidence. If you have one or both (or pretend you have them) then you're in the clear more often than not when running a business.

+Fist-of-doom what he said

I've never seen a Comercial like that and I live in America. I guess I'm the only one.

he has his own channel!

+Sam Busch What is it?

I live in Hampton Roads and believe me they chose a tamer than normal Lowell "the hammer" Stanley advertisement.

+Sam Busch props on that man! I'll check him out for sure!

+glasssofOJ no problem!

Daniel Howell's Fringe Gap Lmao ikr 😂😂😂😂

The end bit about half dildos killed me.

Daniel Howell's Fringe Gap Me too Also, nice name XDDD

Anna W m,.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Exactly.

You have so many likes and barely any replies.....

Chanchany mine too! best part

Chanchany YUP

Chanchany Made me giggle for sure..

+Greg. Sym. LOL It's weird to us too. And super annoying - they're the longest commercials on TV. My dad and I made a game out of them where we just mute the TV when they come on and try to list every disorder we can think of just shouting them at random. " May cause: Enflamed lips! Prostate cancer! Purple toenails! Enlarged or painful breasts! Excessive hair growth! Yellowing of the skin or eyes! ADHD! Brain atrophy! Chickenpox! Death!" It makes the commercials more bearable.

Raggical Traggical yeah! i've heard that one before!

+Greg. Sym. i live in america my whole life and its funny to me

+Raggical Traggical "Anal leakage"...oooh, lovely! I'll take 50 boxes of that product!!! LMAO

they're required to, but they don't want people to notice so they either say it really quickly or in a soothing voice and it's hilarious. (soft spoken woman's voice):"if you notice blood in your stool, stop taking ____ and contact your doctor right away. ask your doctor if ____ is right for you." lol DEAD.

PumpyCake or the anti depressants that cause 'suicidal thoughts or actions'

Better yet, the head-on commercial that doesn't tell you anything other than apply directly to the forehead.

In all seriousness, that happens because anti-depressants increase your energy and motivation *before* they start making you happier. So there's a window where you still feel like shit, but suddenly you're a lot better at following through on plans.

or the "don't take if you're allergic"

Evan Derickson That sounds like a terribly dangerous combo 😂

What's the name of the guy next to Fion (hope I spell it right ) I love him, his so funny lol. I think you should introduce all the people who works with you in general btw :) keep the nice work ^^

***** Seconded! I find myself being like, "Who are these people? I love them!" all the time.

Facts. Do Irish people explain American Gun Culture with gun ads :)

Facts. I totally agree! Introduce all the great people who make these videos awesome!

Facts. I laughed at most of these commercials as well. My friends and I even made a lot of the same jokes.

Yes he is

Totally agree

Guy Fawkes lmao

LeGrosDupont ikr I miss him

I totally agree with the pack here. I also like curly haired guy also!

Also, they could have picked way better commercials

+Astronautical Films its a five minute video, its not going to be entirely representative.

Sam Busch The few commercials they picked weren't popular or good. They wasn't even that much variety either.

+Astronautical Films what would be the fun in watching good commercials!? lol the terrible ones are funnier.

+Astronautical Films ^5

Classic

Intisar Abdullah For real!

LifeAlert!!!!!

+Warpy LMFAO!

***** pie

+Nicola It sure won't keep you up at night. :D

They need the State Farm 1 and the one with flo I forgot what it's called

+Motormax Progressive.

+Motormax And the "sprinkles are for winners" one

+Liz Antunez It's not about the best ads(that gets screened all over the world) but weird ones, like listing side -effects in commercials which is not done in most countries outside the USA.

+Liz Antunez still, as a canadian when i watch US stations, their commercials are ridiculous.

Omg please one of the best

YES

omg that's the best commercial

Same here

Same here. Where did they find the others lol

Heidi Sargent The Hammer was featured on a Cracked Video for local tv adds

Melanie Grier same

Melanie Grier Same here! I'd suggest they'd use ones like super bowl commercials or commercials for more common products.

Thumbs up!

Facts. Can you guys actually show "classic" commercials? These are shown late at night and are the cheapest commercials in America. 80% of the people in the comments have never even seen the commercials you guys are showing! How about showing popular American commercials? Like the axe body spray ones.

fantasychan76 I want to see them react to Old Spice. Hehhee...

***** I didn't know you watched them! I love your channel!

fantasychan76 That wouldn't work because the Irish broadcast American T.V as it is. They don't get to see all the local trash that comes on in the midst of the night full of hair curlers cigarette butts, and t.v dinners.

Ezra Silva Did you notice that one of the side effects of the testosterone deodorant was enlarged breasts?

That's an unfortunate side effect of taking artificial testosterone. A rise in your testosterone levels causes your body's estrogen levels to rise as well, which is why men who take testosterone after having testicular cancer often grow breasts.

The weird thing is that I posted this comment before I watched the video.. :P

And insurance

after living in america for six years I can confirm that and add that they are all 5 minutes long and boring as fuck. Seriously it's rediculous

car commercials.

ailish086 You forgot weight loss ads.

worse*

Cool

So you're saying they aren't real? lol.

I haven't either - the only one I've seen is the first one.

Most those are local TV ads or stupid infomercials which plays when everyone is asleep. The only one that shocked me was Lunesta which is a brand name ad.

Do you guys think it would've been more interesting if they reviewed normal ads? Probs not

The world doesn't revolve around you mate, just cuz you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's not common

CabraLad no need to be a dick mate, as I haven't seen any either. Bad word choice doesn't always equate to being a selfish prick.

***** cool

CabraLad *narrows eyes*

***** becomes asian👲

I knew the first one

most of our commercials are strait up crazy, but then again, Japanese commercials are on another level in our eyes. it's all relative I think.

imagine first seeing this ad during a commercial break during Saturday night live I was so confused

okay, but nobody has said anything about how the last one was called kush. that was the best part for me

Just by the way I'm an American who sits I. Front of the tv all day watching many channels and haven't seen most of these so thanks for including them big fan.

Please tell me old spice is in this

Facts. - OLD SPICE PLZ! 🤓

Facts. react to... The Netherlands invite Trump in his own words . The Netherlands second ..( first land that started this compaign )

I'm an American and I have only seen one of those commercials, the Lunesta. All the others look like they're local/regional commercials, not widespread popular ones that span the whole country. I like watching your channel but please, do a little more "fact" checking/research into these videos. A lot of the food, taste testing videos you do also are not completely correct either. ❤️ y'all are hilarious, just wish they were more on point.

Lmao, shame. :p

They can't use brand names like Lucky Charms

bigcrowfly Good call, we need a part two...

Ha!! THAT would be awesome!

Or old spice or Directv

Oh no quite the opposite, we don't judge, we enjoy! Keep 'em coming we say! Check out some of our baffling adverts www.mattressmick.ie/

I think it's great to see other people getting the jokes and laughing at them like we do. I just wish they had included ones like the Tiddy Bear, Old Spice, Dos Equis, etc... The ones that become running jokes long after they air. Or Superbowl commercials! They only did "normal" commercials in this one, the ones were we roll our eyes and ignore them.

Facts. I went and checked out this link. I didn't see any funny ad, although Mick looks crazier than hell, but damn, those mattresses are cheap!!

Karl Muster They simply can't advertise medication in other countries. Doctors will make that decision for you and will tell you the side effects.

DontWakeTheInsomniac Aaah... that's interesting. I've never really understood the point of advertising prescription drugs. Is that the case for over-the-counter drugs (drugs you don't need a prescription for, like cough syrup or mild pain killers)?

DontWakeTheInsomniac Well, the patients have the final call on which drug to take. For example there are tons of asthma medications and a lot of different commercials. The doctor merely decides whether or not you can have that medication for your condition. They will try to steer you towards one or the other based on your condition and insurance (since insurance can be picky) but the final choice is yours and when you get the medicine you have to read yourself all the side effects.

hey dont advertise it in other countries lol. medication is given by doctors for free(or a tiny prescription cost)

In other countries it is illegal to make such adverts.

We don't usually have medicine ads

No in ireland we don't use drugs as much as Americans.

They have socialist medicine. I don't think they are even allowed private doctors outside of the socialist medical system. That is why we hear about all the horrible boob jobs in eastern Europe or south east Asia. Or about the British kid who got taken away because the parents wanted to take there son to get treated with a safer procedure in Romania. I believe but the British doctors wanted to save the kid with affordable and older brain damage causing socialist medicine cancer treatment and they had the parents listed as kidnappers. Totally different systems of medicine. They have charities not to give better care or to send people to get better care outside of the uk but fill out lengthy appeals for denial of health care. You get above a certain age they stop trying to give you brain damage to kill your brain cancer but they just let you die of it. I understand that the uk and Ireland are 2 different countries but I'm using the uk as a example because I don't know shit about the irish medical system.

moonspellsdumb what on earth are you on about? Are you talking about Ireland or the uk, because that sure as hell isn't the health care system in the uk

Emma Kate uk. But ireland probably has just as fucked up health care. Never been there so don't know. So you are saying that doctors in the uk didn't accuse 2 parents of kidnapping their own boy who had a brain tumor while taking him to eastern Europe for treatment. Are you saying that uk doesn't have charities just to help out people file appeals when denied treatment by the National health care system. Is it illegal for private companies in the uk to perform breast implant surgery? In America we get documentaries and day time talk shows with topic about british women getting horrible boob jobs in eastern Ukraine or se Asia. Is the irish medical system just as stupid as the uk's?

I'm starting to doubt as well, Amy. And I AM an American.

Raymond Smith In MS we have Richard Swartz. "One call. That's all!" God damned ambulance chaser makes a living off encouraging people to sue for accidents and then getting his opponents to pay him to go away instead of going to court.

Here is Houston we also have a The Hammer. Hes so loud. XD

Fuck off

Cal Curtis ....Okay, sorry if I offended you...

Kayleigh Sunshine well they were rude

Ive only seen the first commercial and I'm from Cali they showed them commercials even we think are stupid

Cal Curtis wait wtf hahaha fuck off for no apparent reason, this commercials are retarded I have seen only 1 of them ever on tv. show them the super bowl commercials instead this are commercials not many people have ever seen.

Cool

FitzChivalry Farseer the ads are mainly ones that get played either at night or during work/school hours

Big Shawn ok

I've seen the Lunesta commercial and the Hammer one(I know that one because I used to live in Hampton Roads)

+죄선희 Same here!

That's because in other places than america people aren't allowed to sell death-pills over the counter

+xXNoOneImportantXx For example in the netherlands pharmaceutical companies aren't allowed to advertise prescription only drugs on any medium. Aside from that there aren't a lot of medications available over the counter anymore either, a lot of them became prescription only in 2013. They don't even have anti nausea meds over the counter. At most you'll see adverts on the tv and in magazines selling cream to treat joint pain and that's pretty much it. Ireland may have a similar policy. I have FF cups and do sometimes feel a nagging pain when I try to sleep on my side, but I still wouldn't buy something like kush for it. It looks like a male masturbator/fleshlight.

Every commercial i have ever seen, they didn't say the side effects. I'm Dane

+Mina F They're not over the counter you need a prescription that's why it said "Ask your Doctor"

In Germany there isn't a lot of commercials for medicine too, because most of the time your doctor has to give you a prescription so that you can take a medicine. But if there are commercials, they just say at the end: "For information about risks and side effects ask your doctor or druggist and read the description.".

have you ever read a leaflet? like... that is very normal. even for ibuprofen a side effect is "headache". that's because the medication messes with this specific area of your bod, so if something goes wrong, where else would it be?

Hmm. Never really thought about it like that (obviously). Thanks for being a nice KZfaq commenter and educating me without being a jerk. :)

i can see how a headache is equivalent to death.

Now that is inappropriate yet hilarious

We share your fascination! Let's hope, whoever they are, they keep buying, so that we can enjoy the infomercials.

Facts. Agreed XD

Facts. Bruh, If you're trying to tell me Ireland has magical low testosterone drugs with no side effects, let the rest of the world in on this magic! Also, if you're trying to tell me no Irishmen with low T and transgendered Irishpeople don't take these hormones, I'd also call, what's the word, "bollocks"

Hapad Yamatt The point they are trying to make is that we just don't really advertise medication on TV in the say way, it just sounds hilarious. I've never seen an ad listing off a hazardous sounding list of side effects while actually trying to sell a product. We put some small print at the bottom of the screen rather than saying it out loud, so someone listing really rare but serious side effects while actually trying to make you buy something sounds like comedy rather than an actual sales pitch. The only thing in any way similar that I can think of would be a radio ad where there is obviously no print so things like terms and conditions have to be slightly elaborated on. Also the only meds we can advertise on TV are non- prescription/over the counter.

Lunesta (zopiclone) is also used in the UK and Ireland, it's probably just suggested by the doctor instead of advertised to the patient. The side effects are the same for people in other countries, and used for the same reason - a .1% chance of serious side effects versus a lifetime of insomnia might be an easy choice to make. America is just really weird that drugs are advertised to patients and it should frankly be illegal, forcing them to verbally say the side effects came about because they used to put them in small print and zip past them, it's become a bit of a farce and if we had a functional government this and other things wouldn't be a thing

+TigerRose same here

same

Well, it might be worth it but only on the advice of a doctor or several doctors after you've been worked up for your sleeping problems and had tests done and stuff. It shouldn't just be, "I'm sleepy for some unknown reason... Gimme them pills!"

Someone with severe insomnia will gladly take a few mild side effects to get some sleep.

For sure. Our house did.

very true. i barely watch tv ever

Yes. They're required by law to list all the dangers. It's also to save the company's ass incase their product does kill someone.

Wow! Here you they mostly just put the potential dangers in a leaflet in the box of whatever you're buying.

Kailah Louise they do that to I'm sorry can't you google this it's just extra measures for safety

PYJhawk I understand that, I just find it interesting that they say it aloud in ads as that isn't done here.

Its great... Viagra: "if you have an erection lasting for more than 4 hours, please stop using viagra and visit your doctor immediately. "

Yup, at least in the UK

and in Germany as well

They're abnormal in every nation on Earth except USA.

right haha

The only nation crazy enough to allow prescription drugs to be marketed directly to patients.

Mathew Crawford Basically, they take the same drugs, with the same chances of side effects, but they do it in blissful ignorance. That's the way it sounds, at least.

Young Frankenstein Yea and somehow our way is dumber XD

Young Frankenstein - hardly ignorance. Our doctors and our pharmacists will tell us of the risk by law. Surely US doctors must do they same? Also there's a full list of all side effects and medical advice inside the box. Hapad Yamatt no one's saying your way is dumber. Maybe there's something lost in the cultural differences, but it's the casual delivery of the side effects that seems rather strange to me. Relaxing images of people sleeping while the nice lady tells you they might die. :P If that's not strange then.....

DontWakeTheInsomniac Okay, that sounds about right. I was unsure, as I know the U.S. Federal Drug Administration is extremely stringent on how side effects are discussed and damn near a book on possible side effects can come with every new drug, plus U.S. pharmacists are required to pull you aside and discuss them with you if they see you are taking a new drug for the first time. It's to the point of obsessive, and I appreciate it, it just sounded like some other places are much more lax about the whole thing.

It's very similar in Ireland (tv adverts aside). I've been grilled just for buying over-the-counter codeine flu meds!! Here there is also a legal limit to one paracetamol/aspirin ect.. product per person, so you cannot buy two or more ibuprofen (example) products at a time. So if you want medicated cough syrup & pills at the same time, tough shit! :O We're certainly quite strict too. I'm not sure what agency regulates it here.

In my country it just says something like "If you want to know about the side effects, read the patient information leaflet or ask your doctor/pharmacist."

In Denmark medication and stuff aren't really in comercials. It's not like "call this number and get it". more like "you can get it here and here".

in Germany we don't have ads for medicines that are only available on presriptionand for the free ones they say "for questions about risks and side effects, please consult your doctor or pharmacist." also I think in most countries people are just smart enough to read the leaflet (or is that the hard way you were talking about?)

SabeLoTodox3 Yes in America people tend not to read the leaflets so they mention the side effects in the commercials to cover their asses. Plus the doctors never tell you about side effects here unless you're very persistent about it. It's interesting that they don't have ads for prescription meds in Germany. It's always the little things you don't think about that turn out to be the most different. :)

Don't worry SabeLoTodox3.... I'm American and _always_ read the leaflet. There's hope for the US, yet! Btw... Does your name mean "He/She knows it all"? Or does it mean a "Know it All" in general?

exactly, they need to show old spice

+cream_o_potatoe what about 1-800-54Giant Giant Glass

+Jewel Vang we have old spice here in the UK and Ireland

+Linda de Montaigu They aren't really classics, but they're good examples of classic commercial tropes. You know, the pharmaceutical ad with the side effects of doom, the ambulance chasing lawyer commercial, the "As Seen On TV" madness...

+pepperminty green Watch again at 14-16 seconds into it

Raine Welsher I have G-cup breasts and sleep on my stomach all the time.

ikr ronan's like Ryan's soulmate lol

Anon Mason Because you don't need cigarettes but many need these medications. And it's good to let the consumer know what could happen when they purchase a product they're going to need to use.

That's info you should be getting from your doctor, who's way more qualified than you.

It's known that cigarettes cause cancer but the medications CAN cause cancer if your body reacts badly to them.

i just didn't care for the medicine thing i just liked the butterfly

the rest I don't know or understand
