Funny commercials

I really get a laugh from the Nicorrette Commercial featuring the guy with the shark on his arm. I think youtube has had to black it out.Here's another funny commercial featuring a shark.

I hope kids don't watch this. They may get the wrong idea about sharks. And lest you think this is laughable, yesterday someone was attacked by a bison they got too close to. When I visited Yellowstone, everyone was given a warning not to get close to the bison, but there were still a lot of shutterbugs tempting fate for that great shot.

If you're not familliar with the commercials of Dutch insurance giant Delta Lloyd, here are some examples.

Comedy on ice.

Never mess with the riot squad.

Fun with a bumpercar. [[One I posed myself by the way)

Pay attention in North Korea.

Wiggers thug life.

This is one my favorites. It's a commercial urging people to improve their English:

Another commercial, although I really don't care for Aretha's reputation, is the Snickers commercial.

This is one of my favorites -- it's more funny/cute than funny/haha. [[Does that make any sense what I just wrote?

Than this one will really crack you up.
Was destined for Dutch television but even we have standards; it was banned!

Those Delta Lloyd commercials were great. Here's another banned one.

Another Delta Lloyd. This time a guest performance by Dutch tv clown Bassie.

Rodeo time!

From the same vine as the Delta Lloyd commercials are the commercials of Centraal Beheer, another insurance company. Their slogan is posted at the end; "even Apeldoorn bellen", translated as "it's time to ring to Apeldoorn", the city in which the company has it's headquarters.

Rio de Janeiro.

Wasp attack.

Driving in England.

Long live the Queen!

On holiday in Finland.
Expression of the driver is priceless!

Alien attack.

This one is quite recent, still on tv. Great music!
Holiday in Spain.

Cleaing the house.

Fetch!

Bank heist.

Witness protection program.

Treasure hunt.

Hypnosis

Fragile!

Acupuncture.

Those damn hedgehogs.

This was voted the funniest commercial of 1995 in the Netherlands. I won't spoil the fun by revealing the plot but I know you're gonna be pissing yourself!!! I still do, watching this masterpiece!!
Voodoo.

And there are many more!
