Collision Prevent | Spec Ad | Mercedes-Benz (2013)

The Collision-Prevent-Assist-System of Mercedes works well. What if it would have been developed ages ago? What if it would be a lot better we expected? What would be if it has had a soul?

Großartig umgesetzt, wunderbar provokant, einfach eine tolle "Werbung". Und der Fakt, dass Mercedes sie doof fand, macht das Ganze noch viel witziger.

[fstandboolbous]

For the non german Viewers: "Erkennt Gefahren bevor sie entstehen - Mercedes Benz" means as much as "Recognizing Danger before it occurs - Mercedes Benz"
Sure you get the Punchline without any translation, but maybe some of you wanted to know.

Sehr viel schwarzer Humor und ein Spot über den geredet, dikutiert werden kann und der im Gedächtnis bleibt. TOP!!!

[jacutin]

Awsome. And who says Germans do not have a sense of humour.👍😁

[spartangoku]

Man, he even made a swastika with his body after being hit!

[floriangrogoll]

Einfach einer der besten Werbespots ever.

[SithEmperetor]

I'd like to see more commercials like this one in TV <3

[wêreldvandenluuk]

Time to photoshop little Vladolf Putler into this wonderful clip 😂

To jeremy clarkson: the car does have a targeting function, but it only works on people with silly moustaches

The model of the car featured, W204 C-Class (Along with W210 E-Class) was one of the first cars I’ve ever drove.

Ist immer noch in unseren Uniskripten verlinkt. Mega toll

[marlop]

Brilliant idea.There should be another ad, same topic but with little Juan Domingo Perón and/or Eva Duarte Perón.

[DonFuegoTube]

Genial. Absolut brilliant! Meine Bewunderung als Art Director.

[DasistKonst]

Und das meine Damen und Herren und alle dazwischen und außerhalb:
Ist Kunst in seiner einzigartigsten und genialsten Form!

[zabelius]

Absolut treffend, im doppelten Wortsinn!

[chrisihg]
