I just seen this earlier today, and I was wondering about other furs take on it.

Oh... THAT video...  Yeah, last night, i had a run-in with that video.  The following is a TRUE STORY.
__________________________

Click on JackSepticEye video...

Video add pops up.

Sigh and wait a few seconds to skip the add.

Suddenly... Singing roadkill.

 :o  KILL IT WITH FIRE.

I'm not joking, that's EXACTLY how it happened!

I'd give a more detailed opinion about it but honestly, i don't have what it takes to WATCH the whole thing.

After reading an article on the video:

1. I'm not clicking, I've been scarred enough.

2. I honestly think it's a marketing scheme, as most people who own cars tend to take preventative care of them, and I'm not sure you'd be a billionaire selling wiper blades.

But that's just my thoughts on it.
Every now and then...

Hmm... I didn't think it was that bad. I mean, no more gruesome than "Thriller" which it's obviously parodying. And mostly less so since it's obviously puppets.  Still, it is dead critters singing.

Probably just a failed attempt on a viral video for marketing purposes.

That's gotta be the funniest PSA video I've seen. It's definitely on par with the Dumb Ways To Die from the Australian Metro!  :D I wish that more ads and info campaigns were like this, it's amazing.

This is fantastic! ^-^

Shame it's advertising something, i don't really think more expensive wipers is going to save you from hitting the animal in the tiny period you get to react.

To be fair, when you're going 60 mph, you're covering over 80 feet a second. Any second your eyes are blinked, your windshield's blocked, or you're distracted, that's 80 possibilities to hit a deer, or an elk, or a moose, which can seriously screw up your day or kill you. Moose can grow to 7-8 feet tall, and weigh up to a 3/4 ton. It's pretty much the elephant of the Americas. I'm not planning on running that risk any time soon, and depending on where you live better windshield wipers can help that.
