Awareness Test

Very clever and it gets the point across

Try this test, [dothetest.co.uk...]

(I think the link is OK since it's for a public service ad.)

[surrealillusions]

Thats quite a good test

:)

I like it! Unfortunately, it's way too long for the short attention spans of today's society.

And looking/not looking out for something isn't always the issue: Santa Clara Country Sherriff falls asleep at the wheel, Kills two highly skilled cyclists [sfgate.com]

^^ But you are part of today's society, and you watched it...

So, are moonwalking bears responsible for distracting road users? Just come back from a cycle to the shops and back and, as much as I looked, I didn't see one. Perhaps they don't always do the same routine...

really nice ..but little long for my liking.....

They should have skipped the Intro entirely.

[surrealillusions]

i pressed "skip the intro" link..it helps make it shorter ;) :p

[rj87uk]

lol, very good test! I liked it, thought it was funny hehe!

[LifeinAsia]

^^ But you are part of today's society, and you watched it...

I watched it because the OP specifically pointed it out. If I saw it was on TV, I probably would have tuned it out after the first few seconds. And I'd say my attention span is probably a longer than- ooh, nice legs walking by the window!

Short attention span? That's not society, it's age... ;-)

I agree, but I didn't want to say it. I didn't want to piss off all the young-uns around here. :)

[surrealillusions]

us young ones with a short atten..oh look, a cloud up in the sky, isn't that nice?

Anyway, a short attention span? Wheres the proof...oh look another cloud..

Love it! Sending to my entire marketing department. Perfect for viral marketing.

[raedthakur]

damn....i should have just skipped the intro...... stupid me!

[ronin]

I was so sceptical that the second video was the same as the first I went back and watched the first again. Yep, it's the same. (At least I got the number of passes right).

[BeeDeeDubbleU]

:) I did the same thing.

[akmac]

Worst moonwalk ever. Now, what's this about passing a ball around...?

[rj87uk]

lol, Yeah I agree I needed to watch it again to make sure they wernt telling porkies!

[lgn1]

And I was thinking, it would be easier to count the number of passes, if that stupid moon walking bear would get out of the way. So I guess I passed the test.

short attention span

The second I saw the "it's hard to see what you aren't looking for" and figured the fun bit was over, I closed the window. What were they selling anyway? ;)
