I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who believed and always wanted a house hippo whew! Haha this commercial should have been better advertised if they were trying to make children understand what they meant. I thought the woman was mumbling
I thought house hippos were real when I was younger !!! I ALWAYS wanted one growing up.. I STILL want one now haha. But I know there not real now :P But I always thought they were growing up. I dont even remember the lady saying they werent real at the end of the video.. .Oo
When i was 3, this video was misundertood to me i ripped through my entire closet And waited fo christmas for an excuse to leave peanut butter om toast sitting out. Now i watch it at age 14 And i am so disappointed.
I knew this was fake due to the fact that "in a kitchen just like mine", there would be a woman. And in this commercial, there wasn't. Can't fool me, stupid commercials.
When I was younger and I found out house hippos weren't real, I was so upset. XD What sucks is that the commercial is about false advertising. But most of it consists of this false advertisement.
As I scroll through the comments, I'm really amazed at how many people just don't get it...even when they know that it's fake the message somehow stays elusive. Had people actually gotten the message the evening news would become so much clearer.
To those who don't understand...don't worry, we'll leave Brittany alone.
ok so my sis and i both wanted to put House Hippo commercials.
heres mine.
i was watching this commercial when i was 8 an it was the first time (idk how on earth i missed it all those years) and right away i ran away and stuck my head in the closet and did that every time i saw the commercial for about 2 years until i actually stuck around and WATCHED the end it was like dont believe eveerything and i was like NOOOOOO IT CANT BE! IT CANT BE FAKE! then i ran to the couch and punched it hard!!!
when i first aw this commercial when i was 6 i started looking for my 'house hippo' and then the 'that looked really...real!' part came on and i started bawling i mean come on talk about disapointing
Good for you and Stephen Harper, who ever the fuck that is. FYI, people in America consider Chuck Norris to be a joke, so go eat a bag of dicks, and stop saying "eh?", you fuckwit.
Then you wont believe how many adult have fallen for this. However, it is the message and the point that are important not the story of the commercial. Like the news on TV, most adults believe it as facts where a big chunk of it is lies and things to control feeble minds.
They ARE real! I am on a waiting list for one of them. They are just starting to be bread here in Canada now. Seriously! One of the local Zoos is gonna start breeding one, and has just purchased a female from hollywood named ZsaZsa (I mean what other name) and I am on the waiting list for the next litter. They typically have 1 per little but can have twins.
I remember this commercial as a child, I always thought they were real, until it said "you know that couldn't be real" me: Awwe darn it!
