All I can really say is what the hell. That was a...jarring twist. I don't even know if it is meant to be taken seriously or not.

How to make your foundation not taken serious anymore... hacking off hands may be more efficient...
I'm not even sure who the target audience for that clip is. It seems to target the children themselves... but please... no... I just hope this is not broadcasted at any time children can see it.

pretty weird, what the fuck. On the other hand, it will probably remain in my memory for a while, so it definitely worked in the way that it reached the audience.

I think the target audience might very well be young adults, like in the video. I definitely wouldnt show it to kids.

That commercial was way too long, and you explode when you "slack off"? Also, how did they get in the explosives test site when clearly there was fence around it, and why was the military testing landmines when the US doesn't use landmines in war? How could the military be so careless to let civilians into an area with unexploded ordinance just laying buried underground that could easily be set off by a wandering fox or something? And if all this was allowed to simply just happen, how would staying in school and learning Algebra and shit help you avoid a situation like this, unless this commercial is a metaphor for the fact that tyranny preys on the ignorance of the masses, but if that's the case, how is anyone going to make that connection when the premise itself is so absurd that it really stifles any sense of taking the ad seriously?

To be honest, I was fully expecting it to be aliens.

Edit: After a second go, I noticed a couple of things: there are 4 students, 2 from one private school, and 2 from another private school, so how do they know each other? Or wait a second, DID they bring the students from the other private school or were they all from the same school, because you see the two students standing there behind the fence yelling "Hey!", so are they coming with or just yelling at their classmates because they want them to stay in school? If that's the case, then why aren't they in school? Nobody else was hanging out on that side of the fence. So did they want to come with or...?

Also, there is a gaping hole in the military's fence, and the students somehow knew the exact location of the hole in the fence despite the fact that they hit the open road, and then subsequently threw away their map.


ANOTHER EDIT: I GOT IT. THE MESSAGE IS + Show Spoiler +

The patent absurdity of it all makes me think it belongs in the same category as this one: Benny Hill landmine commercial.

I kept trying to guess what the twist would be. I thought it would be like some drunk driving thing since they were drinking on the beach and had them driving around. Caught me off guard still

I don't get this commercial. I guess they skipped school and went to the beach but couldn't read that it's a landmine so they didn't read the sign and ended up dying as a result. That's the only explanation that comes to mind.

Actually, I really liked the video in the OP. Very well done, you'd expect it to be a commercial for some kind of beverage or other lifestyle product. It would have been even better, if they had omitted the "That's what happens..." line. Just a simple "Stay in school." at the end would have been both hilarious and thought-provoking.

I remember a spot about alcoholism, which was comparable in sorts of "shock factor":

first we make expand, then we defense it.
