Guinness Surfer Ad (with Horses) 1998

The 'Surfer' is one of the best and well known adverts of recent years.

Part of the 'Good Things Come to Those who Wait' campaign, the ad uses the metaphor of Hawaiian surfers waiting for the ultimate wave to reflect anticipation for the perfect pint of Guinness.

@AlamoJane Sure. But be cautious. If one gets caught up in things at that emotional level, one will be a sucker for those who are all too ready to exploit their audience ... at that level: mere alcohol producers and other advertisers, religious zealots, politicians, etc.

@flowerbower It may be an advert made by 'mere alcohol-producers' but watching it makes me want to go outside and run or swim or dance because I'm alive! Again, don't think I'm alone in feeling like that either. I'm not going to make any sweeping statements about art being fundamental to being human because well, it's each to their own. I do feel sorry that you don't experience the same pulse thumping, primal feeling though. Turn it up and turn it up loud! 'Scuse me I'm going for a run. :D
