Surfing around Youtube checking funny commercials from Thailand, laughing my lungs out, checking this one out and... O crap i wasnt ready for this one, took all my manly metalhead image to hold my tears from flowing freely.
@ferretburger They come out with a new commercial about once a year. Beats me how they can put so much emotion into such a short time, the creators are extremely talented.
This isn't really about second chances. One of the things about that company is that it uses 'treasure your life' as part of why you should have life insurance. This just kind of amplifies that point, although it doesn't really make practical sense.
Most of our commercials are pretty good, though. I was really WTFed when I saw the American ones for the first time, lol.
OMG, this is so deep and meaningful. I'm jealous of the Thai, the insurance commercials we get here in America is just a bunch of Cavemen standing around saying how much they're offended by everything.
So, I don't get it. If he would have bought this insurance he wouldn't crash his car and make it to the concert, he would be invulnerable or what? Thai insurances fixes your lifes mistakes?
@wolfspider1986 no but the insurance leaves behind something for your loved ones. Insurance for your life, basically. Shit like this happens in life, you know
@broverKeyes But it still won't make things better between the guy and his rock star son, right? So I assume that this ad is a bullshit, that makes insurance sales grow by playing on emotions of people whio watch it, don't you think?
@wolfspider1986 I think it is about doing the right thing for your family. Life insurance is just one way of doing the right thing for your family. If you can't be there to express your true love at least you can send the message by your actions, including having cared enough to buy insurance over the years.
The sales pitch is basically "make sure that they know you love them".
this made me break down into tears like seriously theres loud talking and cooking (cuz my family is asian) and i start crying like crazy and they're all staring at me.
Thai Insurance commercials were usually maked nothing about what are they trying to sell. They just want to make a short movie about life that's all.
Maybe because of this company is the best insurance company so they don't have to commerce what are they offering. just make the commercial to be something that is attracting your feeling.. to memorize it..
Hey... take a look around... nobody is commenting here if the insurance is good anyway... we are all focusing on the story. I give a fuck about the thai insurance... but the commercial is very simple, true and has a message that can heal minds...
They did want to make a short movie about life... they did it good.
The dad first asks for more time but in the end it was all about a stupid life insurance. Life insurance does not = time. But anyway the short story was kinda good though.
I don't understand how life insurance will give him more time or save his life. This commercial is better suited for a healthcare commercial rather than life insurance, which only applies when people die.
The commercial say about opportunity the father has missed to get going with his son. Comparing to someone who should have get a life insurance but miss the opportunity and later can not have the benefit when you get old.
that commercial bought tears to my eyes. It's always important to tell someone how you feel about them before it's too late. I know it's just a commercial but it diserves a standing ovation.
i like to think that he barely survived that crash and became paralyzed in a wheelchair and at the hospital he got to tell his son everything he always wanted to.
I'm sure it's much too late now, but if you have a mac, you can get an add-on for Firefox called Download Helper, which lets you download videos from youtube and a whole bunch of other sites :)
Thais are constantly winning awards for their TV advertisements. There are award ceremonies for commercials just like there are for movies, and Thais normally take home a disproportionate number of those awards.
this is rated very high in my "TOP MOVIES" even if it is under 2 minutes!
purely amazing!!!!
the asian directors can catch the emotions 1000000 times better than the whole american movie industry has done in decade! AND THEY DO THIS UNDER 2 MINUTES!!!!
I recommend movie OLDBOY to those who like this commercial!
