2oceans Vibe

If you haven’t caught it by now, you should be made aware (as featured in yesterday’s 2oceansvibe Morning Spice headlines) of the new ad by Gillette, featuring Roger Federer hitting a tennis ball and knocking a can off someone’s head. It reminds me of the time I did a fly-kick and kicked a bottle of Handy Andy off Mavis‘s head while she was ironing. Now that was epic.

Anyway, the ad has gone (what I call) “viral” and has now been watched over 2 million times.

Pretty impressive, hey? Not really. Not if you compare it to the original video which Gillette clearly ripped off. Which video is that, you ask? Come now, let’s not play silly buggers – you all know which video I am talking about. It’s no big deal, it’s only been watch 41,000 times.

It is, of course, the video of The TBG (Tall Blonde Guy), throwing a can, backwards, into the bin. This, on his first take. He did it before the camera was turned on, just for shits and giggles. But then the cameraman turned the camera on and asked if he thought he could do it again.

Please, give me a break.

TBG, over to you..

Try and argue the fact that he is not a divine being. Just try argue that point.

We’re standing by for an apology from Gillette. Or at least an acknowledgement that they stole the idea from the TBG and 2oceansvibe in general.
