German Commerical

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1KKpWkssKI

Warning: explicit language

this commercial is hysterical. it tallks about language barriers. the commerical features older people listening to english laguage commercial- not knowing what it says. the commerical could never air in america because it would be censored so quickly.

Thanks for the explicit language warning!
This one has been making the international advertising reels for a while now. And does have a serious message about the trouble you can get in if you don't really understand other languages.

This was a funny one alright. It is so true though that people should know the language of the lyrics that they are listening to. When I was in the Dominican Republic over Spring Break the locals were listening to their spanish speaking music and I had no idea what the lyrics were. I can imagine though that the lyrics were not always appropriate.
