When I got this spiel in elementary school, I made my family's fire safety plan and presented it at supper. It consisted of crawling into my parents walk-in closet -- California closets are highly effective fire retardants.
The best part about this video is that it never actually explains how to be safe in a fire. The only information given is that if you're "cool" somehow your invincible to flames. Pure mastery.
this played on armed forces network alll the time! good memories... now if only then can find all the silly commercials aimed specifically to the military
oh god. i remember that one girl was a finalist on one of those "wanna be a vj" mtv contests.

The set really is a rip off of "Gimmie Some More"
ReplyDelete"Tell ALL your parents"
ReplyDeleteyeah, Busta Rhymes' career is rolling over in its grave.
ReplyDeleteThis totally riffs on Beastie Boy "So What'cha Want."

ReplyDeleteI remember making fun of this commercial... haha, but seriously.. lets be cool about fire safety folks.
ReplyDeleteThis is so phat! I totally relate. This PSA is reaching me on a level normally unattained by wack firemen.
