  • @woundedbear49 thankfully my favorite whiskey and I happen to be part-Irish!

  • one of the best commercials out there

  • The Jameson family fought pirates. Their motto is Sine Metu - Without Fear. And it's on the label of every guddamn bottle of Jameson.

  • hahaha they were havin a funeral on the beach, its all sad and rainy and depressing, and that nigga comes walkn out of the ocean like everythings kewl.

  • Someone needs to 34 this commercial with tentacle rape.

  • @wolfgirl73095 i love you. /y/ should be made aware of this idea.

  • Comment removed

  • my last name is jameson

  • Chuck Norris once stole a barrel of John Jameson's beloved whiskey. John Jameson round-house kicked Chuck's head into the mouth of a giant squid.

  • You STOLl my name idiots

  • if any1 is interested the ways of saying you are/were drunk in ireland are pissed,scutterd,fluterd there are a few other ones that i cant remember but i never felt right sayin i was wasted.

  • not even a squid can stop an Irish man from having his whiskey.

  • Drunk that at my prom....

  • Aigh Laddy, this is by far the best whiskey you'll trickle down your throat. 'Tis also great for getting the lassie's, they appreciate a real maun who drinks real whiskey!!

  • @bgretk

    Well your obviously not Irish

  • great way to say goodbye to the crew.

  • john jameson needs an intervention he is an alcoholic

  • ERIN GO BRAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • Best commercial

  • nike sb john jamesons

  • just got wasted off a 5th of this last night

    great shit

  • John Jameson was "the Most interesting Man in the world" father!!

  • John Jameson > some lives!

  • Barrel fell in 'cause there's a woman on board! That's just downright bad luck mate.

  • It would be so epic if titanic ended like this with Jack

  • Uisce beatha - Water of Life

  • Powers is better. I'll drink both, and both come from the same distillery but Powers is a 70/30 Pot Still blend, and you can tell. It's god's nectar and it's $17 for 750ml. There is a reason it's the best selling Whiskey in Ireland. Go get yourself some, you'll be a convert. I'm not trolling, just spreading the gospel. Sláinte!

  • a wooden barrel of whiskey can't sink :P

  • Best commercial ever!

    

  • The Story Of My Life

  • i love this comercial

  • John Jameson = WIN!!!!

  • This is the greatest commercial i have ever seen. LOL at a fucking Kraken coming after him. And Jameson's walking on shore with the barrel: epic.

  • You know what makes John Jameson even more of an epic win already? Upon his having noticed that giant squid right in his very immediate vicinity, he dropped the barrel of whisky he was after... Thus seemingly implying that he dove the very depths of the (Atlantic?) ocean to have retrieved it after all; after having ultimately eventually evaded the giant squid.

    This man could be a demi-god.

    And, this is a killer way in which to advertise a beverage product.

  • Has anyone seen the new commercial where the town is on fire? and is it on youtube yet

  • Best advertising film for a spirit

  • Like a Boss

  • until i tasted it thought this commercal was exaggerating

  • LEGEND

  • @dionarapthevicious

    correction, it IS a commercial.... u must be drinking to much whiskey there my friend

  • @suzytreefrog and you must be "not capable enough" to understand a joke and irony

  • what song is playing in the background??

  • @brainwashedEdgard

    its W.A. Mozart - Violin Concerto No. 3 'Straussburg' K.215, 3rd Movement. It was also played in Russel Crowe's Master and Commander movie so it's in the soundtrack.

  • It said "a funeral was held," but not that Jameson was in the casket.

  • Best commercial EVER!!!

  • I may not be Irish but holy shit Jameson whiskey is my number 1 choice of good old whiskey.

  • Guess what! the voice in this is Brian D'arcy James! .... SWOON <3

  • john jameson is my hero.

  • The storytelling in this is so Irish!

  • 666 likes omg whiskey is evil :O

  • my last name is Jameson, bow down to my lineage

  • @muragos1 my first name is john bow down to MY lineage

  • @dionarapthevicious Because it is a commercial? Haven't you seen this on TV????

  • @Kitten2642 another person without sense of humour

  • @NovisM I have a sense of humor. Your comment just happens to make no sense to me.

  • @Kitten2642 I see that

  • mozart violin concerto 3, 3rd movement...starting at ~3:15 depending on the recording.

  • try drinking 12 year old jameson... mmmmm yum

  • @ChaosRiddenReaper how is it? is it stronger? or smoother? I never made a bottle last more than a good night lol

  • @DarthGothicus its delicious, its worth every penny more. smoother, richer in flavour. yummy

  • @ChaosRiddenReaper also goes good on steak suggestion dont pour it just dab a lil bit then rub it on

  • i was expecting the octopus to show up to the funeral drunk

  • can I keep a 26 of the shite shit and just hold it for 25 year

  • 0:18 Megaman fans... Launch Octopus?

  • Jamesons isn't the best whiskey but it's probably the best CHEAP whiskey

  • he must have ducked that giant squid up to escape. XD

  • is that a good whiskey? ^^

  • WHISKEYDISKS. COM

  • sine metu!

  • drinking some right now =]

  • omfg i fucken love this commerical

  • Comment removed

  • The most epic commercial ever!

  • Ive had Jamison 25 yr old limited reserve it's not even available anymore there were only 1000 made for north America you have not truely experienced jamisons until you've had the best available jameson. Oh yeah, the 18yr old is amazing too, but nothing close to the 25yr

  • @gasrelay YESSS! Da smoothest tasting whiskey, U can taste every flavor. It is worth it!!

  • John Jameson > Chuck Norris

  • @jmlrugby11 SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @jmlrugby11 stfu with the chuck norris stuff

  • Awesome!

  • Love it. The whiskey I mean. But the commercial is pretty good too.

  • ...weeks later a funeral was held, all of Ireland was in attendance....including John Jameson. (epic part) hahaha.

  • @iamjrod05 no shit faggot i saw the video too

  • @scaccia1991 awwwwe somebody's hates their dad.....

  • @iamjrod05 For being 30 seconds long, it's my favorite story ever.

  • @iamjrod05 That's Why I Heart This Commerical So Much,LoL.

  • @thebloga20 This commercial is awesome. It never gets old! lol

  • Storms at sea, our beloved ones, the depths of the ocean, Giant Octopuses. There's nothing that can separate us Irish from drinking :D

  • The woman John Jameson married, if you weren't aware, was Margaret Haig, a sister to the Haig Brother who make Haig Blended Scotch (which you can still find on store shelves in the UK and elsewhere). So John Jameson not only made his own whiskey, he also married into more whisky....

  • What do the Irish call Jameson Irish Whiskey in Ireland...

    Water

  • That's a great ad! Lol!!

  • 7 people were drinking Jameson's while they tried to click "like"

  • i don't get the commercial... explain it to me

  • @Trimbler00 i don't get your comment! explain it to me!

  • the best beer commercial.

  • @JAEGERSTER this isn't beer!!

  • @karalynnbrown does almost the same whiskey or beer you still get a dui,the police doesnt care if is beer or whikey? and is still the best beer commercial.

  • And in hindsight-hindsight, it definitely WAS a good idea!

  • This is just one of the BEST commercials ever!!!

  • First time i saw this add i lmfao

  • @dionarapthevicious Because it is a commercial

  • @eris0303 he's being funny.

  • @eris0303 its a joke

  • damn i love this ad!

  • Mozart Violin Concerto No. 3 in G major K. 216 3rd movement =]

  • @dionarapthevicious I actually saw it used as a commercial on a Hulu video.

  • this is such a stupid commercial. obvious half-assed rip-off of the johnnie walker commercial but with lame ad copy and a stupid half-assed story. i think most of these comments are planted by the jameson company.

  • @jahdlkfjhadlkjhfl You're a moron

  • @jahdlkfjhadlkjhfl John Jameson's badass.Dude wasn't gonna leave his whiskey.Hell nah.

  • In hindsight . . . that probably wasn't a good idea.

    hahahahaha

  • Hell I'd do the same for that smooth whiskey! Jameson is good :)

  • Comment removed

  • john jameson is a boss

  • I bet that whisky kept jameson nice and warm on his one week swim back to shore

  • What a boss...not only did he have to somehow beat or get away from that big ass octopus, but then he had to swim down and get the barrel that was probably at the bottom..he's pretty freaking awesome if he pulled all of that of, and made an appearance at his own funeral.

  • I like the part where he said John Jameson.

  • The approach they took was quite similar to something Johnnie Walker did a little while back. The one thing that made the Johnnie Walker spot great was that it took a historic approach to the ad. They used storytelling as a way to entice and draw your attention. It was extremely well done, as this one is as well, though it's not as good.

  • As TV commercials go, they don't get any better than this. An instant classic, to be sure!

  • John Jameson = Irish Chuck Noris

  • i love the part where its all like "in hins sight this probally wasnt a good idea" its awesome

  • Violin Concerto No. 3 "Strassburg" K.216, 3rd Movement' Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

    That the name of the song

  • i am EXTREMELY curious on how he survived.....

  • @DontfuckwithElton he had tentacle sex with the octopus and then it swam him back to shore out of gratitude

  • It's the best whiskey ever

  • lmao i just saw this on spike...this commecial is epic!

  • I love this commercial, and it's good whiskey.

  • you knw this commercial is actually true..this happend in 1781

  • Yes, what is the name of the song?

  • What is the name of the Song?

  • This is one of my favorite commercials. What a good story.

  • I do love this commercial..... Especially the end. It just sounds like a tall tale you'd tell while drinking. Totally appropriate.

  • awesome squid
