The Best Gift Ever



This guy gets the best graduation gift ever.. or does he? 





Guess he wasn’t so lucky. In Dutch this is what we call: making someone happy with a dead sparrow.The kid is goes berserk over his gift, which he believes to be the yellow Camaro, while his parents don’t have the heart to tell him what his present actually is.

Viral Roller Babies


What is more funny than a laughing baby? Admit it, you laughed your ass off after watching this video.  Babies have such an infectious laugh and above all they are cute and cuddly. Enough reasons for Evian to decide to use babies in their viral marketing campaign..

The Royal Flash Mob

Remember this?


This YouTube video went viral.  In its first 48 hours, the video was viewed more than 3.5 million times. Something about these people makes them fun to watch. It can’t  be their dance skills, so it’s probably the fact that it’s so unexpected, and it looks like these people are having fun and are being themselves.

The idea of dancing down the aisle was inspiring for a lot of other brides and grooms, and got a lot of imitators and parodies. T-Mobile, however, was the first to use it for marketing purposes.
The idea of people dancing down the aisle was surprising, so imagine people doing this at the Royal Wedding! If you think that’s unimaginable, watch the following video, because T-Mobile made it possible.

Don't judge too quickly


‘Don’t judge too quickly,’ that is the main message that Ameriquest Mortgage, an insurance company, conveys. Their commercials make innocent actions, like preparing a romantic dinner, look like badass ones. Creating hilarious situations.
We chose to show you the funniest 4.

Starting off with a dad who drives his daughter and some girlfriends to a concert. On their way the daughter asks her dad to pull over, so she can go and buy some gum. Her father calls her back while she left the car and gives her some money. At that moment the police comes driving by and turns it into an awkward situation.. 


Oops, haha.

May the Force be with you



Is advertising becoming more and more annoying, or is it just us? Today we have more knowledge about advertising and its strategies. Or at least, companies think they have, but it doesn’t show in their ads. Advertising is not only getting more and more dominating, but ads are also getting worse. Commercials which make you smile have become rare, which is why we decided to highlight those commercials which make you laugh out loud.

In this first blog we will talk about the funnies ad of 2011: “The Force” by Volkswagen. Last year this ad went viral, and this year Volkwagen used it again for their new car. We think this commercial is just epic, and seeing the huge amount of Youtube views and Google searches, we’re not the only ones. For those who don’t know it (or for those like us who still find it hilarious after a dozen views), you can watch it here.
