- Advertisements and public service announcements AKA PSAs have been a part of human civilization for eons. I’m talkin’ word of mouth, flyers, newspapers, radio, billboards, television etc, you know what I’m talking about. Some of these ads or PSAs hit, some of them miss, and some… well, some are just flat out creepy. Let’s take a deep dive into The Creepy Ad and PSAs Iceberg.

great video and the best treatment this iceberg could've gotten
The First tune, Promise Reprise is nostalgic to me watching Hispanic creepypastas around 7-8 years ago.
Did you know that was Kermit the Frog in the Wilkins Coffee commercial?
A Day will come, darker than any night. The Damned will rise from their holes and the unbelievers will be crushed. The Rivers will run red and the apples will be bitter.
This day is still far away. And there are only two who know what you have done on this day. You. And Me. And I will be there. I can wait.
You cannot stop it. It is your calling. It is part of you. The more you fight it, the more you engage. The more it digs into the deepest parts of your mind.
It is too late. They don't understand what I am talking about. But you do Sunboi. You do, dont ya? I will be there. It will be easy.
@@punkloser1465 no it wasnt?
Thats wilkins
fun fact: the trolli commercials were directed by the same people who made "don't hug me, i'm scared"
Wait, seriously???
That actually comforts me with that set, sweet!
ohhhhh yeah that definitely makes sense. the art style is also pretty similar. i found that one to be quite charming actually!
@@flatP_ yeah i found it charming too, as well as the one where the treeman looks into the bag
Aaa
@@karenperell-gerson7319 ikr very spooky
Really love how you "censored" the jumpscares with memey nonsense, creative and funny
Just because of that im subbing to him.
*samsung notif*
@@chubbychonkchubbus8729 So do i
I thought my phone's alarm was actually going off for the screamer coffee ad. Needless to say I was confused for a moment.
Bruh, does nobody enjoy being scared anymore :^/
Just wanted to help clarify, the depth of the iceberg doesn’t mean they get creepier but rather it signifies how known they are. The lowest depths of the icebergs are supposed to be more obscure, which often will be creepy due to how unknown and uncanny they typically are :)
honestly, the scariest psas i’ve ever seen are the ones about the workplace safety. they make me feel so much dread and i think the message is very important.
I'm a former automation mechanic and I currently work on even more dangerous crap. Work safety is a serious topic people tend to roll their eyes at until someone gets seriously messed up or less alive.
If you want to see more, microwave society did a video reacting to them. They're kinda gruesome, but they censor most of them. Most of them.
@@Saiko__TM I work as a physical plant and outside equipment mechanic. My job is highly dangerous, so those PSAs are morbid fascination. Have to check them out.
@@Saiko__TM Their delivery is a little frantic, but funny.
First week at my job at a pasta making factory, HR showed a video on workplace safety. The thing that made it different from other PSAs is that it had a disclaimer at the beginning that every incident shown was of actual footage of workplace accidents, many of them were fatalities (faces were blocked out so there’s that I guess lol)
I vividly remember one clip of a guy who basically got snagged in a rotating metal part, and his body got flung around smashing against the ground limp. Worst part was the emergency stop button was hanging above the machine so his coworkers couldn’t reach it so they spent a couple minutes trying to contact someone to hit the breaker for that part of the factory.
Wont lie, I had to put in my resignation because it genuinely scared me that much. Boss said he respected me decision. I still am terrified of machinery as a result.
The "pets aren't toys" ads always makes me want to go pet my dog and tell her I love her.
Same
me too :(
That one upsets me so much
Me too
I hate that ad so much because of how sad the puppy looks
Especially the ending
I wanted to forget about it and I did but now I'm remind again about this ad lol
I love the message it brings but I just hate thinking about how people do this to their pets
It’s kind of refreshing to see someone like.. not bash PSAs? So often I see people misunderstand the actual intention of PSAs, and just write them off as creepy.
Thank you for having some respect dude
Okay but being a PSA doesn't make it like.. okay? PSAs can still be bad or tone deaf (i.e the Sandy Hook ad)
@@offtop1832 oh yea, some def go wayyyyy to far....
Their supposed to stick in your memory tho, and make you think twice about doing what they warn you about...
Doesn’t mean I like watching them tho!
Your right there still in my head till this day
Scary psas are the definition of chaotic good
@@offtop1832 i agree with u but I can't get over "tone death" its tone deaf lol
also ur pfp is amazing
24:25 The my little puppy psa probably is the one that has hit home the hardest so far for me-
The fact it’s so true, with any animal is devastating. Amazing psa, amazingly heartbreaking.
im a very sensitive person when it comes to things like that and just seeing the psa made me cry :')
i always skip over parts in videos that talk about/include that psa bcs it always makes me feel miserable. :(
That’s so sad bro.
all the animal ones, bombing, and children ones just has me so sad.
Sad fact: people back in the 1940s or further before used to put kittens in a bag, seal it shut and toss them in a river
It's heartwarming that most people think this is very immoral act
Someone's probably already mentioned it, but the "lady in the snow" at 12:52 is supposed to be the "Kuchisake-onna", a figure in Japanese urban legends who was the cause of some mass hysteria in Japan around 1980. She would supposedly meet people alone and ask them if they found her pretty, and if they said no, she'd kill them. There's a bit more to it, but I don't wanna spend too much time on her legend other than that saying no to her question leads to death.
The sign she's holding says "have you put on winter tires...?" since it's Kuchisake-onna asking, it implies that if the answer is no, you're as good as dead. Driving without winter tires during winter is dangerous, so barring the jumpscare I think it's a really clever commercial/PSA!
The legend is older than 1980, I believe.
Bro the audio choose for the jumpscare is so funny
@@micmac274yeah. Kuchisake’s story dates back to the 1600s
Ok bomber
Using Kuchisake-Onna would kind of defeat the purpose of the psa, then, wouldn't it? In every version of the legend I've heard, answering yes just means she'll rip off her mask and ask again, and then you're dead no matter what you say. The only thing that changes is whether she stabs you with a pair of scissors or slices your face with them.
Edit: Actually got to that part in video, didn't realize it showed her without the mask. Oops
You unintentionally made the ad where the chef gets boiled alive even more scarier. It cuts off just before impact and then the message appears. Legit gave me chills
for real tho. i wish he kept it instead.
@@medievaltrap7285 Me too, but sometimes it's the things you don't see that are more scary than what is visible to you. It's up to your imagination to fill in the void.
I don't think I should have laughed
@@cherisherrrrr don’t worry, I found the workplace safety ad funny. Just the cutoff.
I thought it was funny…
Fun fact: 8 out of every 10 people you see every day is actually Smokey the Bear being deep undercover.
I wish it wasn't so :(
@@Sunflower41XD Who am I? Your guess. I might be Smokey. ;)
Shhhh don’t expose me >:3

@@SharkyPopTart ahhhhhh
There was this one PSA that absolutely traumatized me as a very young kid. It aired on like nickelodeon or cartoon network or some other kids' channel, and I guess it was meant to warn children about the dangers of playing in the street / not obeying the rules of the road. There are two main details I remember: #1 it contained a group of kids creepily singing 'ring around the rosy', and #2 it ended with a shot of a kid's bike lying on its side on the street with its wheels still spinning (presumably in the aftermath of an accident) while the line "we all fall down" played.
This commercial freaked me out so much that I avoided the channel for months lol.
yes i remember this one
Oh, I remember. It's in every compilation.
That's really burnt into your brain huh
I remember that one
I haven’t seen it, but holy crap that sounds traumatic
Questions:
1. Is it lost or found?
2.how long is the psa?
3.did it air in CN or Nick?
‘Chef gets boiled alive’ is actually called ‘Top Chef’ and it’s pretty disturbing. It’s a lot worse than the bloke on the roof. ‘Jaqueline’ made me cry as well. It’s so heartbreaking.
Holy shit the “Chef gets boiled alive” PSA made me scared of boiling water for years after I saw it as a kid. I don’t even remember how I saw it. I don’t even live in Canada.
The whole collection has been up on TH-cam just about as long as the PSAs themselves have been around, so I'd guess you probably saw them that way. There was another one in the series that had a lady in... a clothes store I think? get up on an unsecured ladder then fall off and presumably snap her neck. I've been utterly terrified of ladders since I saw that one, and having similarly grave warnings at my work definitely doesn't help. Be careful on ladders, everyone, and for the love of god make sure they're secure.
HA i learned to be afraid of a kitchen faucet because my dad always leaves it on boiling
It's possible that this ad was seen in Detroit, or in other parts of the United States that border Ontario, Canada. TV signals don't recognize imaginary lines, so broadcast stations can be received on areas of the borders. So a Canadian PSA could have easily been viewed in America on Canadian television. Detroit is fairly close to Windsor, Ontario. So if you live near Detroit, it would make sense if you saw the ad on Canadian television.
Idk if I Speak for myself alone, But I had to stop watching due to your incessant voice popping up 2 seconds into every add and 10 decibles higher than the advert itself. Too bad because you spent a good amount of time compiling a great selection of creepy and weird PSA's/advertisment's just as the title describes. No insult to you particularly, Just I came to see the inappropriate T.V programming, with your (hopefully) witty funny and clever commentary as an afterthought. Not a hour of your commentary dubbed over the advertisments I now have to look up individually...sorry man, hope you see this
I will tell you that third degree burns aent pleasant. I can still see my nerves were the burns are
the problem with that 70s native american psa is it was funded by big conglomerates that were the people behind all of the waste to begin with, and was the start of businesses shoving off the responsibility of properly disposing of waste or recycling onto the consumer, when for many, many years it was the other way around. it hypocritical and disrespectful to native people
I completely agree. Pinning the blame on us doesnt address the problem at hand. All it does is make us feel worse for using one little thing with plastic on it, instead of making us go and tell the big corporations "Hey dumbasses, CLEAN IT UP!"
Indeed. Heck, as others have pointed out, the guy in the commercial isn't even Native American! He's Italian!
they didnt even pick up the trash they threw down for that ad
Corporations moment
also apparently the guy playing the 'crying indian' was italian??? lmao
Fun fact: the Wilkins coffee ads were created by none other than Jim Henson, the man behind the muppets. it was a side gig he did during his first television show run, named Sam and Friends.
I remember as a child, I saw this anti-smoking ad where a woman is talking to the camera but she barely had a voice and she had one of those hole things in her neck to help her breathe, almost like she was on life support. It was really sad and it scared me for many years when I was young.
I saw that too, there was also one with a man that was the same. He was in hospital dying of lung cancer, as well. It was England, specifically North West that played it. I think it was on the BBC since they have to show them as they're state broadcaster.
@@micmac274that’s called ‘Anthony Hicks’ it was made by the NHS and was unfortunately a real story. He was a real person who sadly suffered that :(
Something about just having peewee Herman go ‘this is crack’ is incredibly funny to me.
I heard he was on crack
sometimes i just say that to myself in his voice
@Topaz Pie ...the commercial was made in the 90s dude
@Topaz Pie ...how old are you?
@Topaz Pie yeah it goes without saying anyways; "memes" didn't exist in the 90s, the word wasn't even used until the mid 2000s. So the PSA wasn't a "meme" nor a joke for that matter, but it definitely wasn't very good at getting the message across. In the late 80s and early 90s broadcasters tried using titular television mascots as mechanisms to get the point across that "drugs are bad." But they just ended up coming off as cringe worthy and uncomfortable, even back then.
You know what always creeped me out? Those commercials that came on during the late night that said something along the lines of "if you or a loved one has mesothelioma and has been exposed to asbestos, you may be entitled to compensation".
Something about the near Silence with basically no music, in addition to the monotone voice, and the fact that it always came on at like 3 a.m. made it super creepy. It doesn't help that I was like 7 and by myself watching TV at night in a dark room
I always found them funny. My friends would make jokes about it.
Oh God I feel you there
Fear mongering at its finest
im actually horrified imagining this.
The ones with the music were worst.
The Japanese Kleenex commercial is also has an urban legend surrounding it, according to the legend, the actors in the commercial died under mysterious circumstances, some people complained that the audio sounded like a German curse, despite the audio being a voice singing “it’s a fine day” in English, some even believe the video would change if viewed during midnight.
They are still alive lol it’s my first time hearing about that commercial.
@@Joemama_77 ok

Now, I usually have a lot of guts with these kinda sad things, but “I didn’t mean to shoot daddy’s gun” made me cry so much, these ads are so effective.
It was the "my pet puppy" one that got me

Timestamp?
@@kayleefleming3176 if you’re talking about I didn’t mean to shoot daddy’s gun, 59:20
Some of these just make me cry too.
Fun fact about the Wilkins coffee commercials: those were made by Jim Henson! The puppet used was an early version of Kermit before he had his current day design!
Kermit was Made before the Ads.
I thought that puppet looked farmiliar
It's not actually an early version of Kermit - the frog already existed as a separate character by then. But definitely very early Muppets. :)
I knew that accent
@@kerriemills7184 it was an early version of kermit the pre existence of it was the same puppet being used elsewhere prior to the ads nor was kermit a frog then
PSAs that mention babies and children always give me this sense of dread and fear. I don’t know why but I’ve always had it. Topics that mention harm to them make me just feel crap after. Now I have a baby sister, I feel it more.
Besides that, the video was great!
I was shown the Sandy Hooks Promise PSA in school, and it broke my heart. I jumped when I heard it mentioned, being NSFW, and the fact that my teacher was the one who showed a class full of 6th graders this masterpiece, just added a layer of irony.
HOLY SHIT. THE SAME TEACHER SHOWED FRAGILE CHILDHOOD TO ME AS WELL! I CANT EDIT MY COMMENTS, SO YOULL PROBABLY JUST SEE A THREAD OF JUST ME.
I remember getting that ad b4 school started up again and the end where the girl is like “ I can use my new phone to tell my mom I love her:,)” always made me tear up😭
Can we just stop and appreciate how he edited the jump scares to make it less creepy for the people that get startled easily so that they can actually enjoy the video without getting nervous about a jump-scare coming up
I'd been putting off watching this due to me not wanting to sh1t myself 50 times in a row only to find it wasn't even necessary, what a guy honestly
Agreed, stuff like this make me glad I'm subscribed to him.
i wanted too get scared thoo
nvm it was still scary i loved the video it was also quite funny this is like. a movie i saw once
I hate it I want to be scared. I wish he just put a warning thats all.
Honestly though, that Pets Arent Toys needs to be aired more often as i see more and more families dump their pets after having children. 😔
Look into "quarantine pets" and what's happening there.
I almost went into shock at that ending. Can’t even bring it to a shelter, you douche bags?

Jacqueline’s story has a wholesome side. The drunk driver in question became her partner in spreading awareness, up until her passing, and probably long after.
I believe he’s still campaigning. He’s got a degree though. Hats off to him.
36:46 caught me offguard
I had no idea that "Dumb Ways to Die" was a PSA when I watched it as a kid. I always thought it was just a funny but informative animation someone made since I only saw it on TH-cam.
Same xd🥸
Same I thought it was just a youtube video animation and a game
The game (s)was great too, I didn’t know it was a psa! If you clicked on a button in one of the games, it would play the song
I thought it was an ad for the game 😅
i always thought it was just a game that 10 year olds played on their ipad
58:33 This PSA inspired me to learn more about Jacqui’s story. It is the most horrifying story of a car crash I have ever read in my entire life. Every single detail sounds like a nightmare that surely couldn’t be real. She was essentially flailed alive for 45 seconds. She watched the flames creep near her as the paramedics yelled “I can’t get her out!”. All because a teenager drank and drive. He got 7 years in prison. Jacqui would never fully heal. She passed away in 2019. Not all victims of drunk driving die.
She just passed, damn :/. God bless her soul and I can’t be,Ive the drunk driver only got 7 years.
That sounds horrible, I hope she’s in a better place now
Drunk drivers are so vile and he deserved the prison time he got. I hope he feels completely guilty for taking a life
@@missm2925 he should have just gotten 1 year
@@o_ver2.094 he should be in jail forever
35:25 This commercial was oddly cute, calming and kind of a break from the scary psas & commercials
I did some minor research into the Ayds chocolate and they where named before the Aids epidemic, and based on my memory, they rebranded shortly after and kept going strong for a few years.
I’ll have to say that the Africa Shoebox one HAS to be the most horrifying. Every time I watch it, all I feel is pure fear, anxiety, sadness, and anger. The black and white scenery, the haunting music, the images of the poor helpless children slowly succumbing to their state of hunger…. The most horrifying thing about it is that it’s all happening right now still…. Pure nightmare fuel
it's the heaviest one for me as well.
That one is hard to watch
The ad feels almost evil. But I guess whoever made it was just getting frustrated.
Definitely not gonna sleep tonight because of that one
@@icantthinkofanything798 Definitely. But I can understand why it’s so harsh. They’re clearly passionate of what they’re trying to say. Such a sad world we live in.
yeah, that one and the oil chef one to this day are literally so hard for me to watch, fills me with so much dread
I legit almost cried at "I Didn't Mean To Shoot Daddy's Gun." Reminded me of some old panic attacks and sobbing fits I had as a kid thinking about similar situations because of PSAs like that. On a much more positive note, I asked my mom for a hoodie with "The Dawn Is Your Enemy" on it and she said yes! I'm absolutely thrilled abt it
Bro really talked about how he had multiple panic attacks as a kid and just goes 'btw I'm getting a new hoodie'

A few things about this I'd like to make note of
1. we need more fake Scp-001 memes
2. We need more Link in the description jokes.
3. Canada is notorious for horrifying PSAs
4. Wasn't expecting a vinesauce reference
5. Wilkins coffee muppets were done by Jim Henson himself
Exactly
i was expecting that canadian poison saftey ad where some chemical falls on a woman’s face while she washes her hands
Explains why one of the puppets looks like Kermit
I'm from Canada and I can confirm that this is accurate.
What is SCP-001?!
30:03 Fun fact about that commerical. It's commonly refered to as the "Cursed Kleenex commerical" there's a TON of videos talking about. It's a wild rabbit hole of "Cursed" Japanese Ads.
"If you're so scared of it being cursed, just go to a Crown Vault!" - LeatherIceCream, 2015
"it changes at midnight" no it doesnt, i debunked it twice
Not a fact- multiple channels on here have debunked it. It was just people making edits of it for fun
@@sofiel4154 notice how he put “cursed” in quotes
It's because of the song being in English and it's a Japanese ad
The ventriloquist one is frighteningly accurate. My father was exactly like that when I was a child, and I’m borderline mute even into my 20’s. I’m absolutely terrified to speak out loud
35:24 Varokaa Heikkoa Jäätä! is a PSA made in 1986 that is played around fall and spring before/during a popular kids program in Finland. Its message is about warning children to not walk on thin ice and what to do in case you or a friend happens to fall in.
Man I wish this psa aired in America during winter because...
Someone on my dad's side stepped on thin ice during Christmas
35:25 by the way the ”varokaa heikkoja jäitä” means Beware of the thin ice. Its a Finnish psa that showed before cartoons every winter as finland has so many lakes kids would often take a shortcut across them (i guess?) i remember it from my childhood and i was kinda scared of it
Yeah. I looked into that advert just now and found out there are 2 versions, one from 1996 and the other one from 2009 I think. The only difference is they made the music have less tension when the bear was drowning in the ice water.
That's honestly the most calming PSA I've ever seen. Tho it could be the language barrier and lack of direct context making it seem much less scary
@@Account_Not_Applicable it's definitely the language barrier. In the original ad, a low, creepy voice says "varokaa heikkoa jäätä..." I was terrified of it as a child
Fun fact: the Wilkin’s Coffee commercials were made by Jim Henson, the man who created the Muppets, created Fraggle Rock, helped with Sesame Street, helped with The Dark Crystal and helped with the 90s TMNT movies and played characters such as Kermit the Frog, Ernie, Rowlf the Dog, Dr. Teeth and The Swedish Chef
Wilkins was an early version of kermit i believe
@@AverageSynth oh no. Kermit actually existed before the commercials were being made. He originates back to Sam and Friends, a TV show created by Jim Henson and his wife, Jane Henson. It ran from 1955 to 1961. Kermit was actually a lizard back then, instead of a frog. He still looked the same as he does now and he was still performed by Jim
Explains why he sounds like kermit. Wondered that for a while. Lol
@@kekalmighty yes. He sounded quite like Ernie too to me. Kermit the Frog and Ernie had the same voice mainly because they were performed by the same person, Jim Henson
I was hoping someone would mention this!! I've never thought of the Wilkins Muppets as creepy at all since i've always known him as Jim Henson's earliest work
The fragile childhood PSA is one I’ve never seen before, but man did that remind me a lot of my childhood. Both my parents were what I considered “borderline alcoholics” and because of that I saw a lot of bad hangovers and other results of drinking too much along with fights from when my dad wouldn’t throw away his beer cans. To this day, I still feel discomfort around drunk people, it’s something I’m embarrassed by but I can’t control it. My dad stopped drinking completely and has been clean for 3 years, my mom still drinks but very very lightly, things have gotten better but that doesn’t change the past.
35:28 OH i did not expect to find something finnish here. I remember how as a kid I used to cover my ears when it aired. it was always the last cartoon to air so you would have to go to sleep soon after or to go outside in the middle of the finnish winter.
Basically the psa warns kids about the dangers of walking on frozen lakes. The only sentence uttered during the animation is in the end where the bear says "Beware of thin ice." the characters are all mascots from a programme which aired various kids shows in the mornings and evenings.
the psa still has such an omnious energy to it but i've learned to love it since it is such a classic. A shared trauma among all finns.

bonkers what are you doing here
I love your funny profile picture
Imagine he leaves one uncensored just to get you. Lol
@@furcorn9804 Is that the furcorn from my singing monsters?
I have mild PTSD that's triggered by screaming, so when that K-Fee ad was playing, I was fully prepared to mute only to hear ringtone music instead. Thanks for making it easier for jumpier folk to watch
I appreciate the people who silence their screamers for this reason! Good day to you!
Same here. I know this comment is a few months old but I hope you’re doing well nowadays !!
I'm glad to know that!
Why would you watch this video you absolute mad lad

Idk if I Speak for myself alone, But I had to stop watching due to your incessant voice popping up 2 seconds into every add and 10 decibles higher than the advert itself. Too bad because you spent a good amount of time compiling a great selection of creepy and weird PSA's/advertisment's just as the title describes. No insult to you particularly, Just I came to see the inappropriate T.V programming, with your (hopefully) witty funny and clever commentary as an afterthought. Not a hour of your commentary dubbed over the advertisments I now have to look up individually...sorry man, hope you see this
Hitogato: you forgot me 😢
Sunflower: i'm sorry but who are you?
*Hitogata
The Africare one haunts me to this day. I'm not someone who cries at stuff like that, since it's hard for me to process some emotions, but God, that one. I think it's just the reality of their situation hitting you in the face. They don't ask for much, and so they ask us for shoeboxes since we don't use them a lot, for more coffins. It just...makes me so damn sad and I want to cry every time I see it. Nobody should have to lose their children like that.
That shit was BRUTAL
@@larsonfamilyhouse it really was this was my first time seeing it and I had to just sit there for a second it’s like a slap in the face
I dont know if anyone else has this, but my high school has a mock car crash before prom night to scare people from drinking and driving. The actual police and fire dept get involved in a real car crash, even a medevac helicopter gets involved. Its really cool, but also insanely depressing and terrifying. Definitely saved a couple peoples lives in my hometown.
A lot of these show how fine of a line there is between horror and comedy, like the Alice in Gunderland and the way you edited the chef getting horrifically burned made me laugh
Fun fact: that "crying Native American" in the anti-littering ad is actually an Italian guy
This feels… wrong
@@foxwithoutahat as a native american: no shit

Why do I smell racism?
thank you for "censoring" the jumpscares! as someone that can't even handle simple enemy ambushes i thank you deeply
Trust me, those K-fee commercials scared me. Even when you know it's coming, it scares the hell out of you. My friend pranked me with one once.
I never forgave him for that until a month or two later.
yesss. I have TS and it gets triggered from things like jumpscares. Most people don't even tell you there is one coming, so I appreciate this!
Naonaonaonaonao
"Simple enemy ambushes", excuse me but what the fuck?
Yeah I slammed my laptop shut the moment I saw the car
We had an ad in Canada that was rather similar to the Lauren Cox PSA (Emily). It features a baby who's alone in her crib, crying, and the camera stays on her for an uncomfortable while before a message shows up to inform you that her mother was killed by a drunk driver. Drunk driving PSA's in Canada did not mess around.
I also remember seeing one of those Turok Evolution ads (the swing set one) when I was a kid. I was really young and had no idea what it was trying to advertise (my best guess at the time was something to do with donating blood; yeah I was bad at processing things when I was a kid haha), and after a while, I thought I had just conjured it up in a fever dream. Thanks for helping me solve a childhood mystery that I had completely forgot about until now!
It's a little wierd but if you can find it can you send me a link to the video I would like to see it. If you can thank you!
I usually get scared easly especially with iceberg videos you somehow managed to make me feel less afraid, thanks sunflower!
I remember a PSA in my country that showed a child talking about how people don't recycle and the asks"if you don't recycle, who will? Your kids? Your kid's kids? No, for them It will be too late." Then, the camera zooms out and reveals that the child was standing in a pile of trash. This, combined with the black background, the fact there was no music, and the serious face of the child scared the shit out of me as a kid.
Edit: Here it is, by the way th-cam.com/video/Gy8c5SfuIC8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=cqJiuomtY31s2CMa
I was scared of the baby puppy monkey ad lol
And as affective as it was back then- just imagine that same realization amongst a billion other people! Hwholychet.......nah. most people MUST be eradicated
What was it called?
Might as well build WALL-Es
The car one (You can kiss my ass one) is just fucking gold, not creepy or anything.
If that aired on tv in the Hospital at 2am while my wife has having a stillborn child, having an emotional breakdown, and that ad came on?
Well, the child would come to life and all mental illness would be cured within a 300ft cone originating from the tv speakers. All gods would descend and bless all things in the same area.
I'm sorry 😔
@@f3rzz476 what are you saying sorry for? this comment is mostly a joke (from what i can tell)
@@floweyseed I think F3rrz believed the part about the wife giving birth to a stillborn child was true. If I had no context, which I don't since I haven't finished the video yet, I would've believed them as well.
fr, the big bill hell's commercial is an international treasure
So specific ??
Dude I hella appreciate you censoring the jump scares, even the simple ones. I was able to watch this without worry so thank you. Screaming is a trigger but I love watching this creepy stuff so you've given me such a great balance. Thank you.
The Canadian work safety PSAs are absolutely chilling. Idk if you edited out the actual events that happened or not but the cut right before you can see anything happen is incredibly effective.
absolutely losing my shit at the edits, the wario ad with the fart noise decimated me. OP I owe you my firstborn now
That's an interesting reward for an Among Us fart joke
That one absolutely destroyed me. I wasn't expecting it at all because I was thinking about the wario apparition
@@Sunflower41XD Hey, I have new information about the lost Cartoon Network ad.
fun fact: the wilkins coffee ads ( 21:02 ) were made by jim henson, creator of the muppets and sesame street! they were some of his first forays into commercial puppetry and helped him and his studio make a name for themselves in the industry.
he also hated coffee
It's also my favorite Muppet creations.
Things just seem to happen to people who don’t drink Wilkins!
The “Cartoon Network bumper with me in it” is probably referring to the CN-sayin era, which lasted from around 2014-2017, where kids could download an app and record short videos of themselves talking about their favourite CN shows, sort of like vines. The videos always had the chance of showing on bumpers between shows, so the OP likely had a video of his air during a CN sayin bumper promoting Steven Universe.
I was a kid during that era, and it's most likely that. I also remember drawings being featured as well as videos.
Also, Cool pfp! I love svtfoe
@@Quesoquantum Thanks!!!
@@Quesoquantum Yeah! And cosplays/crafts too!

This ad was intended to be the first release ad for the NES when the NES was released in PAL countries however the ad was only ever aired in Australia for a short time before it was replaced with another ad for the NES which was also the ad that got aired in the UK and other PAL countries at the time! :)
58:25 If you live in Texas, you probably remember seeing anti-drinking and driving posters everywhere of Jacqueline Saburido….I remember being young and seeing her photo at the DMV and telling my mom that her photo always scares me. I asked her what she would do if we had to go see her. She replied to me that she would go alone so I wouldn’t be scared and would sit down with her and talk about her story over a cup of coffee. Being so young, my mom’s comment made me realize that victims like Jacqueline are HUMAN and not just a “shocking face”, which made it even more devastating. I’d give anything now to hear her story and how she feels about it’s impact. Rest in piece.
man that ad scared me aa a kid😂
*Peace
Yea, I saw Jacqueline a few times on TV.. I was royally creeped out the first time I saw it.
While I enjoyed this iceberg for the most part, I really thought the "Varokaa Heikkoa Jäätä" entry could've used more research. It is not a studio ident, it is a PSA about thin ice. The creepy part comes at the end where the bear says "Beware of thin ice" in finnish in a very deep creepy voice. It traumatized several generations of finnish children.
Oh damn I completely missed that, thanks for pointing it out!
Also worth mentioning that the characters in the PSA are characters from a Finnish children’s TV show called Pikku Kakkonen (translates to ”little two” matching the channels frequency, 2), they together make up the logo of the show, a number 2 made out of the characters. That’s probably also why the PSA has been so effective and ”traumatizing”, in Finland we all know the characters from the logo and seeing one of them almost drown is horrifying, as well as the goddamn creepy voice. But it’s an effective PSA, definitely kept me from going near icy lakes.
@@Sunflower41XD On the flipside, it's kind of interesting in it's own way that you happened to find this PSA calming as an outsider to the cultural context it's from. Though yeah, I kind of ended little disappointed that it wasn't covered properly as a result, this PSA still disturbs me whenever I see it. Hope you considered updating this iceberg with more proper explanation to it someday. 😉
Also the version shown in this vid is a newer one. The older version has different audio and slightly different animation too i think?
Thank you SO much for censoring the jump scares AND telling us you would do so. I enjoyed watching it knowing i didnt have to be on edge waiting for them to catch me
LOL I USED TO BE SO SCARED OF THAT CRUSHA AD SO MUCH THAT I WAS SCARED TO TURN ON THE LIGHT USING THE LIGHT SWITCH
I love when non-Americans talk about doing things when they go to America, as if everything they want to do will be within travel distance.

@@peterwarawa2763 I think you accidentally replied this, lol. But,, due to copyright laws, and TH-cam’s iron fist, I assume the uploader did this to avoid takedown. It also helps to provide context to the videos bc they are so old and it helps to explain what they are about.
I remember when I was younger, everytime a smoking PSA thing came on TV, I would bring my dad over to watch. I would say " dad, this will happen to you."
Because he did tobacco.
He never stopped.
Jeez...Nobody listens to us eh?
Uhuh
Well neither did it stop me. Oh and also i do amph, meph, salts
@@molodoy.. I hope that one day, your life is far better than it was when you started. And I hope, when that day comes, you still have the strength to get off that stuff.
I mean this genuinely as possible.
That’s pretty sad 😞
33:16 is probably one of my favourite PSAs to research. I love seeing how people recollect it, such as whether there were train tracks in the background, the rumour that it was shown in Japanese schools, and the overall nature of it is just so interesting. I also love watching all the recreations people have made, and the skill they have making them. So many of them are super realistic and look like actual VHS tapes of the ad.
31:59 The true ending to Alice in wonderland be like :
💀
" I will edit the video so that the jumpscares don't startle you"
This is a gigachad
After the "prison is for people who have never rollerskated" line I had to get up and walk around my apartment complex for like 10 minutes in silence it was just THAT powerful
Should've rollerskated, loser
51:26 good job that revolver was there. That kid dropped that monster hard!
the scariest anti-smoking PSA i’ve seen was the ones that would play in the middle of the night with the woman that had her voice box removed because of throat cancer. i haven’t seen it in YEARS and i have no idea what channels it came on
Could it be this lady? Because I think I know what you're talking about.
th-cam.com/video/5zWB4dLYChM/w-d-xo.html
WHY MUST YOU REMIND ME OF THIS! THAT PSA TRAUMATIZED ME
exactly. thanks for reminding me
I remember her. She never was scary to me, just sad. I think that's the best type of PSA, just real people with real interviews
Omg i remember that one😭✋
It really made me sad and it did scary me as well
I gotta say: I have literally ENDLESS respect for any youtuber who goes out of their way not to jumpscare the audience, like, seriously, people who do that are fucking legends, thanks to that I can watch in fullscreen and on full volume without worries
Also: That coffee ad - the one with the car - was the first screamer I've ever seen, a friend showed it to me when I was a kid and to this day my fight or flight activates whenever I see a white car on a grassy hill backdrop lol
I have the same amount of gratitude as you.
Booo
baby ass
Fun fact: Those coffee ads were everywhere! They were even played on the radio! Imagine driving home from a long day at work and thinking “ahh some new peaceful music:)!” before THE MOST HELLISH SCREAMS COME AT YOU😭
The heroin monkey jumpscare was left in.
3:32
I can't with the music in the background of the jumpscare XD
I've seen quite a few of these icebergs, but never one with an intermission. Great video and subbed!
To clarify the one at 52:53 , when Teletoon switches to its night program, it starts airing shows aimed towards an adult audience from 9:00pm to 6:00am. That's why a lot of the night / adult bumpers from Teletoon are scary. It's meant to scare kids away from watching the adult block that's meant for adults. It's similar to the Adult Swim bumper that was covered earlier in the iceberg.
oooooooh okay that makes sense
Okay then. Still, a bit severe, eh? XD
@@pundertalefan4391 I mean at that point the channel is meant for adults. So it's okay to air it imo.
Except everyone gets the AS bump one wrong.. it was the FINAL bump/and/anything to do with adult swim when it switched back to kids programming at 5am. So it was a joke on all the stoners and weirdos that stood up all night watching adult swim should try and catch a nap, lol.
6:32 man am I so glad you skipped that horrifying scream, this literally HAUNTED me as a kid. pretty sure it stunted me from learning cooking until close to highschool
That's the only ad on this whole list that I had previously seen and been really bothered by so I just skipped 20 seconds ahead hahaha
Link?
Just look at the playlist in the description
It’s scary enough without the aftermath imo, I don’t even want to imagine what the actual psa was like
@@ObamaMpreg it’s not the worst honestly
Hey man without sounding like a lier I just wanted to say that I love your iceberg videos :), your whole video style is really addicting.
AH FINALLY! Someone talked about the weird smoking commercials even tho it was short. I never saw anyone talking about them on these kinds of videos which struck me as odd since they're everywhere. I still vaguely remember anti smoking psas from my childhood where people would cough their lungs out and their lungs would start walking away. Ironically it just scared me of coughing too hard but not of smoking which I am now addicted to. Still trying to quit one step at a time since I do know it's terrible for my health and I can feel it.
I believe in you dude.
"The Dawn is Your Enemy" brings me some good memories, it would play after the last hour of Adult Swim which was usually Detective Conan, Lupin the 3rd, and Crayon Shinchan or any two of the three, used to see it before heading off to summer school back then (2007), Adult Swim always had really good bumps but that one is more relatable because if you saw it you either stayed up all night or just woke up really early, either way you were tired much like the dude in the picture lol
Yeah, I remember seeing that and it always made me a little angry since it meant I would have to get ready for school. I love the music adult swim plays during their bumps.
I think “The Dawn is Your Enemy” refers to the late hours that you would see it, and how you would want to sleep in the next morning.

Only on the first layer, and already this is a massive improvement to your previous icebergs.
The 001 joke fuckin killed me, your timing was impeccable, definitely loving the vid so far. Weakening the jump scares was also a good call.
Also, fun fact; that Audie ad is actually accurate to how actual Victorian dog breeding, also known as the beginning of euginics, worked.
And fun fact two; that American Indian in the Environmental PSA?
He was Italian, actually.
Glad you think so :D also cool facts, especially the one about the crying man. Would never have guessed that the actor was italian
@@Sunflower41XD and despite the ads iconic-ness, it's pretty dated..like, really dated..
@@Sunflower41XD it was funni
All these perfectly cut screams of yours are getting me 😆 And HOLY CRAP I remember that Eagle Man commercial, my brain had pushed that memory back into storage but it just got awoken 😆
I remember 'the dawn is your enemy' we used to have a big TV and a different house, me and my brother were talking , chilling, and stuff like that. And our parents were doing the same. But it was on the TV and we all were more confused than scared.
It seems like everyone has a PSA or commercial that sticks to someone. Either its close to home or its influenced them in some major way. Its like every PSA is personalized
Mine is "Jacqueline" by Txdot. I still have anxiety when the title pops up on a PSA compilation. I feel bad because it wasn't her fault she got burned but it scarred me as a kid. They used to have her picture put up in one of the gas stations in my town where the beer was and I was always scared shitless going in. My brother and I were on TH-cam and we found a video of her and it showed graphic crime scene pics and when they pulled her out of the fire. Like, I don't even know if it's still on TH-cam bc it was gruesome. I stopped sleeping without nightlights and going out at night on my own. Even standing on my porch at night gave me bad anxiety when I was a kid. It's not as bad now but it still haunts me and I can't bring myself to watch the video
mine is ‘polaroid’ and ‘fading’ those are two i just can’t watch. the face in fading and the monotone voice talking about dying from motor neurone disease,,,
@@ijustwantsushi1252 same if you add PSAs like my little puppy
Mine are "Don't Give Fire a Chance" and "Countdown"
With "Don't Give Fire a Chance", I can watch it without listening to the audio(because that's the main fear i got from it), but the voice plays in my head
But for Countdown, I can't even look at a picture of it without panicking! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!?
When I was little I didn’t like hospital ads that showed human skeletons, and a little later when I was about 5 I had a phase where I was legit afraid of Shrek 😂 I think the Shrek memes from like 2014 cured me though lol
the shoebox PSA might the definition of chilling
anything to get the point across, and for an organization like that, it's a point that NEEDS getting across
Yeah, it makes me sad that most of the kids or people there didn’t have anything to do their business in, but they didn’t have to show the pictures, they could’ve explained it.
I don’t get very creeped or shocked by PSA’s very much, but this one and the one where the guy crashes into a bunch of little kids on a field trip freaks me out a bit.
Edit: forgot about the “pets aren’t toys” one, that one makes me want to pet all my cats and give them belly rubs.
time stamp?
Foreign aid is a cancer.
@@jamsanator0511 you mean the one that gets memed?
Dude, I cannot handle those “pets aren’t toys” psa’s, mainly because I cannot handle seeing a dog die, and the music makes it feel so…disturbing…
You're a real one for editing screamers. Big respect!
I'm here to praise jumpscare censoring. I'm really afraid of them and it's nice to see creators being careful about it and not scaring viewers for nothing. Thank you.
qwauck
Yes
Unnecessary jumpscares are mean
yeah i’ll avoid videos if i even think there may be screamers. i have a high resting heart rate (mine is 120-130bpm but it should be 60-100bpm) & getting spooked by jump scares raises my pulse even more and makes me super lightheaded. plus jump scares are cheap trick
Cry
@@pillowcase8028 um.
3:37 hearing that God damn alarm is worse than any screamer for me.
i remember seeing the tax doctor ad on tv as a child(i’m only 18 but still) and i have such nostalgia over ur watching it while eating lunch with my dog seeing it again for the first time in years brought me such strange euphoria
Honestly thanks for the jumpscare slowing!!! Helped, and the noise changing really made me laugh
"Prison is full of people that have never roller skated" is one of my new favorite quotes.
Putting that in an inspirational quote book rn
That Capri-Sun ad is really tame compared to the eldrich horror that is the newer ones
Also it’s really refreshing to see someone try to nullify these ads with humour rather than purposely adding scary stock music and trying to make it scarier.
This is the video that got me into PSAs. I find them very interesting, but also sometimes can't sleep because of them. I found this video while I had covid and clicked out of boredom. Thank you and screw you at the same time.
i love how no one is mentioning RHETT AND LINK at 30:59
