Netball Girl's Nightmare

[AGgirldoll]

Lesson learned. Never win a game of netball

[yepheth]

wow ...new sport here. Neat My Balls

[sliat1981]

why aren't those guys in jail? they're allowed to VISIT her? also, tess deserved it more than her. she at least tried

[nicnac9912]

Netball is my favourite sport and it has absolutely nothing to do with basketball. I came 1st in a tournament so clearly I should know

[IrieEyedJedi619]

Lets make this a viral video. Thumbs up if you link this to your facebook.

[MauKea]

Why was she hitting her mom at the end??

[mrcharm69]

The only thing that would have made this better is if the driver had shot himself in the hospital room. You know, really drive the point home.

[nivlemsurik91]

lmfao... that was hilarious

[amethystwings87]

@nivlemsurik91 You're a bloody idiot

[sunflower10138]

@abelvillanueve1 I'm from Australia and netball is some thing different so don't go arould say that netball is basketball because is not ok

[mattthesikkent]

I had a guy who had a bad accident and got brain damage come to our class. It was horrible, nobody knew what to say. He would ask you questions but you were to shocked to answer them. I wish that everybody has the courage to say NO and that everybody will be alot safer.

[tazeey98]

aww that is scary and sad :(

[ChrisBennett18]

thats soo sad

[imakedookie]

how the fuuuuuu

[DagothUrMadGod]

With brain injury. The worst thing was losing all my old friends. I wouldn't be like this if I just said no and not going to that car.

[JinchiLao]

Just shows how dumb blonds really are.

[irishgodfatherchris]

@JinchiLao not a smart thing to say on an ad where that actress really does have an ABI (Acquired Brain Injury). to give an example of the trauma her body went through how about you get someone to belt you around the head with a cricket bat at least 20 times.

[nzmaoristud]

i feel like a beer...

[JDTK06]

fuckin shame

[1RadicalOne]

That girl is actually rather lucky. In five years she regained her ability to move, and twenty her ability to speak.

Many never even recover the ability to do more than drool.

[MissWooHoo1]

u lucky one of those drivers wasnt ivan malat!!!

[walksbyf8h]

'No' is one of the most powerful words in the English language. Use it.

[MatthewFromKinross]

Hello kingerz, thanks for putting this video on to YouTube. I remember seeing this advert on the English television programme Tarrant on Television back in 1999 and found it very chilling. This advert is very upsetting but effective in highlighting the dangers of drink-driving. I wish everyone realised that drink-driving can be avoided.

[professorkipling]

this is just propaganda, it's cool to have brain injuries

[MissWooHoo1]

@professorkipling damn straight. it means i dont have to go to school : )

[FireNice18]

i think thats basket ball cus in netball yu have to be in the circle to shot

[TheSprinkles1999]

@FireNice18 actually you don't but most people to

[TheSprinkles1999]

@FireNice18 oh wait i think your right, soz about that

[FireNice18]

wow that is really bad n yu should have said no if were real just like it said if you dont trust the driver,dont get in

[LastShotprods]

This made me cry so hard =S

[Sipper0]

this scares me :(

[lilian666distillers]

why are you taking about basketball or netball whe the commercial is about not to get into a car that is driven by a stupid drunk?...

it is just dumbass...

[level242]

3 months later and she still has a black eye?

[abelvillanueva1]

Netball is the Australian term for basketball.

[lissy1025]

@abelvillanueva1 uhhhhh no its not. This ad shows basketball not netball. Netball is a very different game from basketball and Australians call netball the name netball and basketball basketball. fool

[mklein1998]

@abelvillanueva1 it is not it is a different sport

[aquariuswahine]

thats not netball thats basketball

[ricepaddy69]

@aquariuswahine Let's check the tape:

.

*Orange ball, check.

*Trapezoidal key/lane, check.

*Three-point line, check.

*Backboard, ... ah, crap, they didn't show the ball actually go into the basket.

.

Three out of four is good enough for me. This is definitely basketball, not netball!

[Mikaydoo]

omg they showed this at my school and it scared the crap out of me!!!!!!!!

[Jianlibao]

Some damn "friends" those people are to abandon Nikki (the victim) when she needs them the most. When someone's incapacitated from brain injury, what they need is to be comforted & encouraged never to give up.

REAL friends would never abandon her just because she's not the same - it just goes to show they weren't true friends. If someone was permanently injured because of a decision I'D pressured them to make, I'd do all I can to make it up to them & would forever be telling them how sorry I am.

[wkmitchell]

Gee alchohol is just soooo good isn't it???? It gives us all the wonderful things in life doesn't it???

When the hell are people going to learn.

Alchohol destroyed my wifes family & killed my cousin, but we as human beings bow down to it everyday & look up to it as the god of our lives, & those who have enough guts to say no to it are classed as moronic prudes. I tip my hat off to guys like comedian Dave Hughes who doesn't drink because of what it was doing to him.

[Weeemax]

This has nothing to do with netball grrr

[rikurockz666]

Lol funny how its titled netball girl when there actually playing basketball at the start

[BLUESTUFF8]

omg!! this commerical is so scary!!!

has a good lesson but so frikken scary man!

[moominpic]

Good advert.

[xAngelicaaax3]

WTH IS THE PROBLEM WITH THIS COMMERCIAL. It scared the hell outta me. :@

[sweetrosa1994]

ouch... always listen to the voice in your head it can save your life

[cuteprincesstutu27]

@uraniumdeath is netball i join netball for 3 years and that is netball not basketball

[madzyroxxs]

@cuteprincesstutu27 look, i dont know what sport you play, but this is NOT netball. in netball their is no 3 point line, you wear dresses or skirts not shorts, you dont have numbers you have the place you are playing, you cant step with it (she did), only 2 players from each team can be in the ring (their were 3 blue players). this is NOT netball, its basketball.

[uraniumdeath]

This is basketball, not netball.

The story continues to remain true, but too few heed it.

Driving is not a game. GTAIV is for that.

[cuteprincesstutu27]

@LaLaKatie1 it is not funny but it is poor thing

[ZaCsPrInCeSs87]

@lancemckellar i heard about that, that was horrible.

thisw video shows why you dont go into cars whenh a drunken idiot is driving

[lancemckellar]

Today five young people were killed in an accident in Mill Oark, Melbourne. One person was injured. The car was doing 150 km/h. Think before you get in the car ppl.......for your own sake!

[TheQuartet4]

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Brilliant. Classic comedy

[kevinhjoy]

There's nothing funny about brain damage. You shouldn't make fun of the mentally challenged.

[madzyroxxs]

@TheQuartet4 how is it funny?? some poor girl has to suffer for the rest of her life from one stuiped mistake!

[Ando0795]

just imagin that one day one simple choice like getting in the car can stuff up your life forever.

[damien345]

@Ando0795 yea well im sry for her but that choice was fucking stupid you NEVER go into a car when the drivers drunk!I can say she praticly searched for it.

[Ando0795]

@damien345 no no im not defending her it was the stupidest thing to do but still imagin if that was one of your friends

[kangaroo9123]

holy shit, all these commercials creep the fuck outta me

[LaLaKatie1]

AHAHHAHAHA, (':

[madzyroxxs]

@LaLaKatie1 um, what is funny about a girl who made a stuiped mistake and now has to suffer for the rest of her life?

[MsGirlyGirl3]

omg

[electrogeek77]

Wow...that's a rough one.

[kingdunst]

its sad how it happened she could played state or natoinl netball

[oznipper]

the message is don't get into cars with strange looking fags

[gav240z]

Classic.

[shanaeDIDAK]

this is basketball not netball :)

[MrTiti]

what is this all about?

not date men in the night?

drive together?

dont drink and drive?

let no women drive a car?

what is it i dont get the messsage sorry!

[samigirl50]

ah at the end it says, "if you don't trust the driver, don't get in."

i think that's pretty self explanatory.

[MrTiti]

Thank you

[madzyroxxs]

@MrTiti the message is to not get in cars when the dirver is drunk

[Pbrox14]

holy shit, scary

[thirteenunderscores]

Oh, and furthermore to my earlier comment: they are wearing numbers, not positions, this would indicate basketball, not netball.

[allybaybee818]

it was basketball not netball!!! LOL

tht was soooo sad

[QueenAnime99]

LOL. You're ignorant. You don't know what netball is so it's not smart to say that you know it isn't netball. Notice how the girl threw the ball and notice what country this commercial is set in. Thanks.

[JoBrosMatee]

hahahahaha

1) they are wearing numbers on their backs, not bibs.

2) look at the court floor!

3) they way she shoots the ball

4) and they're wearing shorts

and yeah, exactly, notice how the girl threw the ball! - basketball style!

and they do play basketball in australia.

btw- im in the state netball team for my age group, ive been playing netball since i could walk.

ha, and your telling me to get my sports right. i'd laugh in your face.

[bootyfulbethybabe]

yeah i agree

look how she stepped

basket ball is lame, :P netball rocks :)

[RubyGloom91]

That wasn't netball.. Hahahaha It was Basketball

[thebezziwebshow]

that is soooooo sad

[pinkperth]

Is that Kate Ritchie is the ad? The girl who asked the injured one to go into the car with her.

[livyagirl]

snap

[2Luke]

its even more effective when the story is real... and its real alright!

[SoapySophh]

That's devasting....

[sarahptk]

Yeh but the goal does count, even though it was outside the d becuase if something happens just before a shot is scored, the ref shouts - goal stands. and it counts

[yNeville]

the bitch shoulda drove herself

[QueenAnime99]

Don't call women bitches. And she clearly couldn't drive or she would have, misogynistic genius.

[yNeville]

err, why automatically assume i'm calling women in general, bitches? you must be one of those girls who gets referred to as a "bitch" quite often?

i'm tipping your not just a bitch, but a dumb one at that. you dumb bitch

[madzyroxxs]

@yNeville she could just be saying dont call any women bitches. and how would you know if she is dumb or a bitch? it was uncalled for.

[baybiiheatherx]

she shot outside the d goal dosnt count lol

sorry had 2 say that

[jse07]

i hate this bullshit propaganda

all ad's like this.

1 - Statistically these ads do not work

2 - These ads just breed anti government hate

[Taxistudd]

good ad, spot on

[samthn23]

I dun tink its netball

[xpidf1]

Any idea when it was?, 'cause Nine Network wasn't in the scene

[rudeboirofl]

omg :( thats so sad

[thirteenunderscores]

Bump.

This is basketball, fool.

[ILoveES33]

Any way you look at it, it's based on fact in the sense that there's plenty of people who end up with brain injuries every year because of this. Plenty of dead bodies, plenty of spilled blood, etc...So in that sense, it's always "real".

[xmorgs15x]

omgthats so sad.

[driftingsmoke]

lulz

[llamagurllovesx]

net ball is the early stages of basketball but its a different sport. net ball is a lot harder than basketball and takes a lot of focus thats y we dont have it here n america

[madzyroxxs]

@llamagurllovesx you really dont have netball?

[casperblackcat1975]

Some friends this poor girl had it just goes to show that when something like this happens you know who your real friends are.

[QueenAnime99]

Her female friend should have stuck with her the entire time because it was her fault that she got injured. Her friend was going to leave her alone to ride in a car with people she didn't even know. Her female friend pisses me the hell off because she didn't think about her friend. I mean, she didn't know the accident was going to happen, but it was stupid of her to basically force her to get in the car with her.

[eaglestriker24]

This is very touching, just say NO

[MsSingingCanary]

CHA

[jeep2003912]

So Sad what happen to her.

[stangergtr]

for all the people who says its basket ball yes it is look up the meaning of netball and you will understand it then.

[JoBrosMatee]

Thats basketball not netball...get your sports right

[joeofpie]

dunno about you, but i would have tried to get away from the tree rather than to look away, scream, and allow a shock.

[QueenAnime99]

THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED TOO FAST FOR HER TO DO ANYTHING. Do you have any common sense? If you get into an accident like that, you will not be able to do anything either. Dumbass.

[Cavs4Life23]

is that fake at the end???

[markwaldron]

that brought a tear to both of my eyes

[jeep2003912]

Same here. I wonder if this is a true story?

[deadthevideo]

It may not be a true story. The TAC, for purposes of dramatic licence, may have been using the 'true story' approach to ensure the ad has a far-reaching impact. But, then again, it could have been based on fact.

[deadthevideo]

I remember seeing this on a "Tarrant on TV" twice, the last time was in 2000, but the voice and the dialogue have stayed in my mind since.

[welshfilmbuff]

Same here! Watching it again, after 10 years, it still really chills the blood.

[rraacchheellww]

thats not netball. thats basketball.

[grungie9776]

OMG THATS TERRIBLE!

[mattbiker419]

hahaahhahahahahahahahahahahha

she got owned!

wat the hell is TAC tho?

[deadthevideo]

TAC stands for Transport Accident Commission, an organisation based in Victoria, Australia, charged with the duty of enforcing road safety on Victoria's roads.

[laXman13579]

rofl i know that was the best

[JammyJess123]

I lovve netball im GS and thats basketball!!!

There actually nothing alike because i play both sports and they are totally oposite.

[katie2129]

lol idiots

i play GK. and i play bball at school as well..

totally different sports.. but wateva it was still terrible what happened to her...

[KatieTheWeird]

Fuck this ad takes me back. You bastards don't take this shit seriously. You might laugh at how this poor girl talks, but you don't be laughing when it happens to you or to soemone you care about. Pfft fucking losers. Go play in traffic, kthxbai =]

[deadthevideo]

I agree. I feel that the people who choose to make fun of the way the girl talks may not find it so funny if they or someone close to them ended up with severe brain injuries. Sounds preachy but that is my feeling

[SamNetballBabe]

I LOVEE netball but that was basketball!!

lol

[LuLuBellsama]

ouch! It is a nightmare

[Cavs4Life23]

poor thing tho!

[Cavs4Life23]

she shot her arse off on that game winner!!!!

[mk2lovin2the2victory]

what has this got to do wif netball and car crashes and basketball have nothing to do with each other either...

[Aristes]

Playing netball has nothing to do with getting in a car accident. Jesus Christ.

[lydiargh]

yes it does, she can no longer do the things she  loves i.e. netball. duh.

[thatgirlsaysdixi]

uh this is definitely not netball. It's Basketball!

[xiaodingdang]

It's pretty shameful, but I have clear memories of every teenager in Victoria taking the piss out of this advert (specifically the retard-voice at the end).

[Aristes]

That's sad. :( People don't seem to realize that this really happens.

[ctulhudawn]

i remember this ad. Chilling isnt it

[RosiexCara]

I love netball and for those of you thats say it is rubbish its better than you would be doing atleast people are going out there and doing excerise un like you that are stuck at home doing nothing get a life !!

[theghirl]

Did no one actually notice that it wasnt netball that she was playing it was basketball!!! Why would a girl play netball with a BASKETBALL!! Can no one see that

1) she shot froom outside the circle - not netball

2)there are loads of players in that third - not allowed in netball

and finally 3)they don't have positons on their backs : WA,WD,GA,C etc

[Jerram89]

that's how they do road accident prevention ads in Australia

[skaiste12]

lol thts weird

[CarlyxJodie]

This isnt about netball really. Its about trusting who you drive with. Its about being careful. This poor girl lost all her friends and most of all lost doing the sport she loved. We should take this as a warning for all of us out there who arnt careful when we are out.

[XMumboXJumboX]

see this is why u dont play the crappest sport in the world...netball! sorry to all those who like it....

[xxlittlemoonlightxx]

netball isn't crap...it's a lot better than what most people do...sit on the couch and play video games all day. and this video has hardly anything to do with netball...it's about the driving....

things are just getting worse these days...alcohol, drugs, smoking....people need to come to there senses.

[Sakura4774]

that wasn't a netball game it was a basketball game!!! i've seen that ad B4 and it reli freaks me out... which isuppose is agood thing

[lucy96161]

so that was actually allowed to be played as an advert haha

[malcolminnz]

Horrific case of regret.

[CatherineSLUT]

What a SPAZ

iLOVE netball =]

[CHIps9215]

thats sad

[zeRinaa]

thats fkn horrible. dun ever listen to ur friends to get into a car with a drink driver! aghh

[SciFiGeekinArmani]

One of the most moving ads I've ever seen. The people who make our anti drink-driving ads here in UK should pay attention to this.

[Shodil]

should have tapped r twice

[WTLWTL111]

rofl what a retard lmao DURR HURRR LOL

[highwayto4355]

are you freaking serious?!

you're such an idiot.

[PiNNKRose]

this is so sad...

[matt99is]

tits or GTFO

[K2thC]

DO a barrel roll!

[sezzie92]

oh my god.thats so horrible.

i watched it twice then cried.:(

poor girl...

[kalashinakov]

these TAC ads should be played in NSW...fuckin scared the shit outta me :(

[MiizzAniime]

shes not a netballer....shes a bball player

[sugarsweetno1]

thats horrible. :(

[neygnit]

uh HELLO. she's not a netballer

[lehsong]

IS this video for reaL?

[LoafOfPint]

Yes, it is actually a video. It really was filmed.

But to answer the question I think you were trying, badly, to ask, it is very clearly acted.

[Green2oo7]

Truly touching.

[Cerebrus000]

lol she can control her mind but she lost full control of her body functions. It wasnt the drivers fault it looked like a blowout(no cars in sight). At least she got better though.

[shanaeDIDAK]

better?! she fucking has brain damage!

shes never going to get better!

i hate this ad, very disturbing.

[deadthevideo]

It might have been a blowout, but if the guy had not have been drunk, he could have avoided the crash by regaining control of the car.

[xRachiixBaybiix]

how the fuck is that funny?

[mrpajamasharkman]

It's not meant to be funny... It's telling us not to ride with people we don't trust. Not everything on YouTube is meant to be funny.

[moondy1]

if you were paying attention she didn't trust him because he had a few to drink

[xRachiixBaybiix]

Dude I Wassnt Sayin It To!! Someone put lol bout a month ago n i posted how the fuk is that funny im not a TOTAL dipshit yuu kno ..

[stickfigureanimatorX]

what the heck?

[IcePrincess73]

I cant believe some of these messages, no wonder the road safety message is not getting through with thid kind of mentality. You won't think it is so much of a joke when it happens to you or someone you know.

[EZASUPonONE]

Get over it, These messages don't work.

[bigdaddysouthern]

what the fuck is netball? is that like basketball?
