'80s Anti-Drug Commercial - When I Grow Up

[InglebertHumperdink1]

Is that Jim Carrey...? With the nurse one.

[beachbum719]

Actually a decent anti drug ad for once.

[SesakaGenX]

Holy crap the ballerina part. o,o

[datfiyachick]

@3086gsxr lmao!!! It does

[datfiyachick]

So 80's I remember this psa!! For some reason it popped up in my head.

[3086gsxr]

Y does it sound like a jason movie at the end

[apryl1476]

I remember way back when I was little. This really gives me nightmares.

[lyric142]

@apryl1476 Just wondering. Have you ever done drugs? If not, this commercial certainly did its job xD

[apryl1476]

@lyric142 I don't do drugs I really don't. I just watching way back when I was little. That's all.

[eyeseer1]

some junkies become successful, they're called rock stars.

[Spelonker]

Getting high = realising you've let your childhood dreams slowly die and need to get cracking on them immediately!

[CRUXmusiconline]

I am all of those things when I'm high.

[easkateman]

Well, I'm geussing their huffing gas or huffing paint to pass out on a floor :l

[JonB1718]

its funny how its somewhat hypocritical, that "role models" today use drugs.....like a lot steroids steroids, for example.

[trillination]

Song gets scary at the end. Espescialy if you play it loud in a dark room

[4pl3x]

stick to psychedelic drugs and you will be fine, nothing that is adictive or bad for your health

[nevskislake]

@4pl3x - Unless you take too much or it's laced with something.

[MrsRabies]

/watch?v=6M17aG_Po2Y

[humbertojimmy]

You can actually be ALL of that...

[SUNSHINE21480]

How many average ppl really become ballerinas or track stars?

[mistagrimm115]

I want to grow up to be a junkie. SEE! I SAID IT! The video now lied.

[2TJW]

No-one says they want to be a dictator when they grow up either.

[SoopSoopa]

When I grow up, I will be a Junkie, living in a junkyard, scratching my junk

[NukeIt2Bdone]

Wasn't this broken up into 3 shorter commercials

[psychomajoreflex]

this commercial is more 90's than 80's

[Crunkadelic]

LOL! I remeber this.

[daddychacon]

tha music scared me more tthan the thought of being a junkie

[Tylerdavasel]

YES YES! FINALLY found this psa!

[carlairving]

No one ever says "I wanna be an accountant when I grow up" either...

[liamjd1]

loool, you cannot overdose on weed, believe me i have tried.

[eazyevan1]

When I was a kid I wanted to be a fire truck when I grew up and thanks to drugs I'm living my dream!!! WOOOO WOOOOO WOOOOOOO (Running in circles) LOL

[jriley1992]

He wants to be a track star and he can't even outrun the police??

[CelesteK]

@jriley1992 Not when they're busy getting high and then getting caught they can't. 

[blitzvomitew16]

@jriley1992

i know right...slow ass motherfucka! LOL

[MrPman851]

And yet, people are still doing drugs and even finding new uses for it.

[Kickitandrelaxify]

all these anti drug commercials r so bad i wanna do heroin.

[codetalker187]

i wanna be a junkie

[acidsould]

That little girl wants to be a nurse? Wow shes aiming for the STARS!

[anophthalmiaLXIX]

it seems like they were all doing what they wanted to do when they grew up one guy was running, one was dancing, and one was a respected nurse in her community

[steevo2003]

i don't remember seeing the nurse one growing up. and i can see why. it was kind of creepy.

[datfiyachick]

I soooo remember this commercial as a kid it creeps me out now!!!

[KKillaJ]

drugs like meth and shit are bad weed however is completly harmless check my channel out for education on cannabis

[upunkpunk]

0:18 THE DUDE JUST OVERDOSED AND INSTEAD OF CALLING AN AMBULANCE THAT WILL PROBABLE SAVE HIS LIKE LOOKING AT HOW HE FELL JUST THAT SECOND, YOU DECIDE TO HIT HIM, PSYCHO BITCH.

[brandonmalaty]

this commercial wouldve been so much better without that douche talking after the kids

[OneRedKansan41]

For some reason, that junkie ballerina just creeps me out..

[LongviewGD182]

WTF is that thing at the end lol

BTW drugs are cool

[TrulyAppleStudios]

This commercial scared me into doing drugs.

[spudsisnumber1]

when i grow up i wanna be hunter s thompson :D

[morewherethatcame]

when i grow up I want to be charlie sheen

[MultiRump]

clinton, obama, bush all smoke weed.

[corrupt200]

@MultiRump yeah but clinton never inhaled

[MultiRump]

@corrupt200 bill clinton said "i didnt inhale" obama said "i didnt inject"

nixon said "i am not a crook" obama said "i am not on crack"

[MrSmartComment]

when I grow up, I wanna be a fiction writer, a jazz musician , a California governor, a president, a painter, Playboy magazine owner. Guess I better light that doobie

[OneRedKansan41]

Is it just m, or is that 'ballerina' creepy as hell?

[steevo2003]

@OneRedKansan41 the ballerina one was kind of twisted. but the nurse one takes the cake! i don't remember seeing the nurse one when i was a kid.

[elementsk8punk]

i wanna be a weed tester ;)

[HamSandwich09]

I wanna be Captain Planet

[SkatenDestroyrulz]

The people who make anti-pot commercials should get REAL jobs

[missweewilson]

omg All of you people who think taking drugs are good what the fuck is wrong with you , yes i may not have met you but still drugs do ruin your lifes my mum died 2 hours after smoking weed , why would you want to die ? as a child we all say what we want to be when we are older but this is saying we never choose to be a junkie so why do it ?

[BentOnTheCross]

@missweewilson I smoked weed and my mom died.

[fuckingbloodeagle]

@missweewilson the only possible way for someone to die after smoking weed is to smoke 1500 lbs in 5 minutes. that is the same as smoking 800 lbs in 2 minutes. your mom must've been a really fucking hardcore smoker because usually after the 10th bowl or so, you're too stoned & hungry to smoke any more. ...and people say stoners are dumb.. ha

[seg162]

@fuckingbloodeagle In other words, missweewilson is making that shit up. Either that, or her mom had incredibly weak lungs.

Drugs aren't good when misused. But they really ought to legalize marijuana. Maybe that'll shave some of the American crime rate down.

[LongviewGD182]

@missweewilson Bullshit, god knows what your mom took. In 10 000 years of weed, not a single death has been directly linked to it. ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO DIE FROM WEED !!!!

[JonLeGanj]

@missweewilson lol im calling bullshit on that story, if your mom died from weed 2 hours after she smoked it, she would be the first reported case of weed killing a person, and i think the media would be all over that story, r u sure she wasnt a crackhead and only told you it was weed so you wouldnt feel as bad?

[TitanuimWolf]

@missweewilson so how is it never recorded as a death because of marijuana?

[Dudeatrix]

@TitanuimWolf it stops them from dying

[TitanuimWolf]

@Dudeatrix lol my point was it doesn't kill people

[MusicalHog08]

@missweewilson I detect a logical fallacy. Just because your mother died two hours after smoking marijuana does not mean it was because she smoked it. For all we know, she could have been hit by a car or had a heart attack or something.

[stalkingcat123]

and thousands more that like getting high actually achieve their dreams cause they aren't fuckin stupid

[ryguyspk]

This ad isn't about smoking weed... it's about drugs that require a needle or a straw... hence the word: junkie. Don't be one.

[FreeBeDrug]

i wanna be the president of the united states!

jk, i actually want to be an ophthalmologist....

[XvFALLENSKATERvX]

Good thing I don't do drugs. I just smoke weed

[alttab7890]

@XvFALLENSKATERvX Should i say "good for you"??....

[Necrotharsis]

@XvFALLENSKATERvX Derp

[Raflegan]

@XvFALLENSKATERvX But you still believe drug propaganda?

[honeegrrl]

@XvFALLENSKATERvX Weed is okay but it makes me hungry :-)

[Sherpaful]

An old white man and young black man are fighting over something at the end of the video. Could be drugs.

[SiriuslyWhy]

@Sherpaful- I almost choked on my water, because your comment made me laugh. haha

[Taylor13371337]

I go smoke weed in the middle of a beautiful river after kayaking for several hours. Man am i wasting away my body by being unproductive... WEEDdoesnt make you unmotivated it just lets you see that all that shit you did before wasnt worth the fucking effort

[freethechronic]

when i grow up i wanna grow some plants in my basement, and make in a few months what some people make in a year. then repeat the process and make a 100 some thousand dollars a year. yeah drugs can do that for you. well weed at least.

[Rune31]

Hey its Pit Stain from The Adventures of Pete & Pete running from the cop at the beginning!

[iuriSalvador]

when i grow up i wanna be a drug dealer.... better than Pablo Escobar

[dachicagoan]

Whatever happened to all these anti-drug PSAs? Did we give up on our kids? lack of money? or Pharmceutical Industry involvement?

[gameshowluvr86]

Chuck Norris approves this commercial...

[samtommuff]

when i grow up! i wanna drop more acid, smoke more weed, take more mdma, smoke more dmt, take more mesaline, more shrooms and more ketamine than anyone else on the planet!

[JonLeGanj]

@samtommuff goodluck with that, youll be permanently lost in another universe lol

[issyvoo2]

This doesn't look like the 80s to me. The haircuts, the clothes, the lighting, the editing, the interior decor... It just doesn't look 80s. Do you know when it was made?

[phubans]

@issyvoo2 It was from the 80s. I remember this commercial from when I was little.

[gfresta]

iv always wanted to be a junkie! its my dream come true

[carltyboy]

omg dont smoke weed its natural medicine, it makes you happy omg omg thats such a crime dont do it............................­... naaaaaaaat

[demonxthedk]

Well atleast they all did what they wanted to be as kids...

[Poodleinacan]

I must admit...that one was a bit extreme...

For the last one...to die rapidly, he have smoked some heavy stuff.

[DalekQueen]

@Poodleinacan hahaha that just made my day:)

[mmalady2013]

so if i get high the grudge is gonna beat on my chest?

[Bjgemini524]

The end was a bit creepy...

[angrycitizen7]

I dream of drugs

[ArrrPirate666]

What the fuck did I just see? 

[ActionHankify]

Holy shit that ballerina is tripping BALLS.

[m2diggs]

Drugs don't get in the way of my dreams, the Federal Reserve and the IRS do!

[Zeriaraz]

soooooo dramatic

[xoubigli]

weird, the dead guy at the end looks like Jim Carrey!

[MarsRapsFans1]

@xoubigli omg dood it does look like jim carrey!lol

[anth42789]

@xoubigli Rea he he he heally... lol

[CoDyscoobie]

thats right dont do drugs..... just smoke the budha:]

[TheOneartist]

Weed actually makes me have goals and aspirations. Maybe when they said "high" they meant heroin?

[broverKeyes]

this is a good commercial !

[AresCassell]

I want to be a junky when I grow up.

[22MRMafia]

Barack obama- I wanna be the president

Crazy anti drug guy- well dont do drugs

15 years later....

Crazy anti drug guy-DAAAAMMMITTt

[ShiiteMusic]

No one says, "When i grow up, I wanna be a lazy, fat ass, World of Warcraft player", but we have tons of those.

[Ganja4Life18]

i think we can all agree that weed is not only the best drug out there but the safest as well. no one dies it dosen't kill brain cells and is non-addictive why is it illeagal again oh right the DEA would be out of bussiness if it was leagal.

[VicodinC]

what are people upset about ? they all reached their goals... right? :DD

[liamlord]

dont let dreams get in the way of you drugs

[D1ckNaBox]

I think its hilarious how these commercials are sponsered by alcohol and tobacco companies which are responsible for close to a million deaths a year in the US. Weed responsible for no deaths hmmmmmm......

[sillypoopy]

Oh no, I think he's dead. Let me break his ribs to make sure.

[BudLady29]

Don't let drugs get in the way of your dreams, smoke pot and become an Olympic gold medalist.

[centigonal]

@BudLady29 I want to see someone who smokes try to run track competitively. Do know know what that stuff does to your lungs?

[Gofankok]

@centigonal

run track or smoke my weed um weed piz

[whw524]

0:18 hey look they got dave grohl to do the ad

[megamarsvin]

When I grow up, I wanna be a pothead.

[sthesailor]

that's right kiddies, don't do drugs....except for weed, that one's fine

[12ShotCafe]

@sthesailor hell yeah

[MagicMaureen46]

@sthesailor What is wrong with you?? What a thing to say! Nobody should use drugs, and that goes for "weed" and alcohol.

[sthesailor]

@MagicMaureen46 clearly you know nothing about weed and the many benefits it has- industrial, medicinal, etc....They don't prescribe marijuana to cancer and aids patients for no reason. it is a proven fact. so before you randomly run your mouth at people for no reason, do some research and have a blunt. As for alcohol, I don't personally have anything against people drinking it as long as it's in moderation.

[gotohex]

damn lady....he was just taking a weed nap

[SmokeWeedEveryDay629]

Holy shit this was such a scary commercial!!!

FYI I AM HIGH

[MagicMaureen46]

@SmokeWeedEveryDay629 Do you have to use profanity? There are ladies on the Internet, you know. We can read what you type on the World Wide Web. Have you heard that a gentleman shouldn't swear in front of a lady? Do you swear in real life? What type of woman is going to want to date or marry a man who swears? Or who smokes pot? Do you smoke pot like your user name and comment suggests? If so, that's terrible. How old are you? Nobody should use drugs! Weren't you raised any better than that?

[SmokeWeedEveryDay629]

@MagicMaureen Marijuana is the safest drugs out there. Yes its illegal but for what? It was not grown by us humans but by God and if he doesnt want it fine. Yes i use profanity and girls do too but what I dont do is run from police because im not stupid, I dont dance around like an idiot whos on crack, and last of all I dont overdose on marijuana...because you cant. Im 16 in the top 8% of my class and im already going to UTSA next year on a academic scholarship. Dont be quick to judge. Peace

[slimbino]

@MagicMaureen46 But He's Not In Front Of You, So Your Statement Was Pointless

[m2diggs]

Remember kiddies,your Government ships in the drugs.just ask Bill Clinton's brother.

[IRISHBUDDAFILTH]

@m2diggs you're right and don't forget our armed forces guard the middle east's opium fields so they "dont get into the wrong hands"

[m2diggs]

@IRISHBUDDAFILTH "When I grow up, I want to serve in the army so that I can watch over the opium fields in Afghanistan to protect our freedom!"

[CelticPowerRanger]

I wanted to be a Power Ranger when I was younger. The White Ranger once said if you want to be a Ranger, say no to drugs and stay in school. Thanks to my heroes I have stayed fit and healthy and my Green Ranger costume arrives in a few weeks time. I can't wait for the next sci-fi convention.

[MALICEFULintent]

the cunts that made this video are cunts

[MagicMaureen46]

@MALICEFULintent That is terrible you use such language! Do you realize there are ladies on these boards?? Do you talk this way in real life? What tyep of woman is going to want to date or marry a man who uses such language??

[MahBoi22]

@MagicMaureen46 Trolololololol

[JonB1718]

I wanna be a Junkie when i grow up.....

[Cows2Luv]

@JonB1718 I was gonna say that! Quit stealing my dreams.

[Jctrynr]

The only thing weed will make you lack is content in your fridge.

[TheFatty2497]

PREMIERING: 3 Guys one field!

[shadowblitz237]

I saw this on T.V. once!!

[brontide2]

Nah guys...keep smoking...so people like me have it easier

[okgo43]

[DavidSloaneLaw]

Heh...that boy needs a stick of RightGuard!

[SiliconBong]

Note @ 0.18 ; That's how *not* to do CardioPulmonaryResuscitation.

[WraythSkitzofrenik]

Those PSA's scared the crap out of me! I had nightmares about them!

[wildsillywilly55]

[wassup631]

[lyingisland]

That ballerina was hilarious.

[LordEmilous]

When I grow up I'm AM GOING TO BE rich and have loads of drugs to use for fun =|:^)

[rangepwn2810]

hmm one kid they didnt show wanted to be a prostitude but instead she smoked weed and is now married soo sad... another cone full plz ty.

[KOSOVOisSERBIA1]

I guess Kurt Cobain didn't watch this :)

[DarthJoshReturns]

@KOSOVOisSERBIA1 Little Kurt Cobain: When I grow up, I'm gonna be a music legend that will perform for decades to come.

[OnFireSTEIN]

THAT MUSIC WAS TERRIFYING!!!!!!!!

[EmperorofCartoons]

@OnFireSTEIN Yeah I had to turn it off it was scaring the living shit out of me.

[nmmeyer9922]

damn that was kinda fucked even though i hate the war on drugs

[Jimlead]

Drug free world=Open Eyes everywhere.

[Hakkun9872]

...fuck. Its the only word I have to describe this. Just...fuck.

And that last part? Same word...fuck. If I were a kid during that time, I'd have been freaked out by those commercials.

[eyeheartpancakes]

how many kids said "when i grow up, i wanna be like the beatles!"

problem?

[Coshka77]

Ye cause the Beatles smoked pot and they didn't do anything with their lives. Obama smoked pot and he never became the first black president. Bush did crack and he never became president, but crack is bad, and even he, a crack addict became something. It depends on the person, not the drugs. So Drug-Free America, just shut the fuck up, look around you, within certain circumstances drugs are fine, without it we'd never have psychedelic rock. Education is the key that opens the door responsibly.

[TheMushrumable]

Wow....Kinda...Spooky o.o

[SupositoryRepository]

Ironically, someone with needle tracks up and down their arms is colloquially referred to as a "track star" lol. We used to chuckle at this commercial as kids. The ballerina part always killed me.

[psala623]

yet every doctor in america is writing scripts for kids to go on pills. yup, god bless america.

[MultiSinoda]

That Ballerena is on extacy!!!!!! : D

[TheUnknownGrower]

drakz

[wangsta231]

[Fatboylt2]

[schmeltingaccident]

I like the Friday the 13th "ch ch ch ch ah ah ah ah" at the end. Scared me when I was 6 watching the morning cartoons hah.

[dgenerate707]

@schmeltingaccident i used to think that when i was a kid too.

[izzytrip]

the girl dancing ftw

[RhiehnD]

I want to be a junkie when I grow up, fuck the war on drugs
