You may be familiar with the noun advert, which is used, especially in British sources, as a shortened form of advertisement. That's one way to use advert, but it has also been used as a verb in English since the 15th century.

May I suggest you read, watch and listen a bit more!
I completely agree with you. For the Staying off topic team let me put it this way. Imagine sitting down to watch your all time favourite programme, then having to pause it every 5 minutes to explain / answer questions about it. Completely ruins what you're watching.
@@dev1346
It’s literally a reaction video do you expect them not to talk or what.
If you don’t want talking then go and watch the original video
So relieved that yours was the first comment....I read and skipped watching it. Many thanks for the warning, they would have had me pulling my hair out in frustration.
@@takashiz-1731 don't be an idiot mate - if they're yakking over everything that happens, how can they react. Fool.
Its a reaction video, not a sit silently and watch video, the clues in the name dummy
I found it interesting and worrying that as hard hitting as these adverts were our American friends needed it explaining to them because they didn't get it!?
They are so guarded from life with American media helping to shape a Disneyland theme park lifestyle as oppose to the truth.
At least here in Britain we are taught that truth hurts - I think that's why other countries can find us abrupt, we tell it like it is we aren't Willy Wonka, we wont sugar coat or wrap it up in a big red bow!
The French and Spanish are similar. They don't sugar coat things. They're not quite as brutal, but they certainly don't gloss things over
We are brutal. I agree with you on that, although Ive come across a few Parisians in my time who have made me go ouch! 😆@@adrianboardman162
Blimey, don’t be so harsh. They might have trouble understanding the accents.
@@user-fq8rs7rz3i I think they're just very dim.
Should the title of this be changed to 'Americans have British Adverts Explained To Them'?
The instant face of recognition from the British guy shows EXACTLY how effective these ads were
He also said she became a “vegetable” bloody idiot
Thank goodness you were there to explain what things mean to them😂 wow.....
I can cope with the ads but not these numpties chirping in constantly missing the point
@@paulbromley6687 What a couple of complete dipsticks, I've known five year old's with more intelligence than these two!!
The guy literally said the lady in the motor neurone disease was a vegetable. The bloke is an idiot
And being so judgemental 😊
In Britain we do not expect to be mollycoddled . Brutal truth. Irony. Sarcasm. Its all in our vocabulary.
Your demeanor at the start of the video was in stark contrast to the end. Your shock was all over your faces and, at least, you kept quiet and actually watched and learned.
Ignoring it is a very American way of thinking about stuff.
I've just watched an American couple watch the same video and they was shocked and moved. It got through to them
@@sarahfields288 Well that’s the minority.
@@AleahMartin961 Every American I've seen react to this, has either cried or felt deeply about it. Stop trying to spread your personal feelings as a fact. You're just wrong.
@@Sacred_Silence Well not in this video so clearly your wrong…
Alot of these were actually on during the day, most kids saw them. I remember seeing lots of these all day and they weren't just limited to after watershed
I remember as a child in the early 2000s, the NSPCC advert about abandoned children terrified me. I had an irrational fear for a long time growing up, that my parents would leave me behind one day.
So I do agree certain PSAs should be after the watershed, because I know first hand, they can scare the shit out of children and can effect them negatively
Some of this was painful to watch and not because of the adverts
Lol, they did my head in. A 4 yr old would comprehend faster.
I actually had flashbacks. Very nearly cried because I was so close to some of them. The Barnardo's especially, I was a whisker away from being taken into care. Even now I'm f*cked up, but the family rallied round and saved me. im not sure I've been saved, just deferred. 66 now but my past never really leaves, it's the quiet moments when the memories invade
i know, bro, same vintage. but hey, we're still here, to keep trying. @@howardchambers9679
So sad but it's definitely true , what they say about the American education system,
When describing terraced houses he says, they are well old, built in like the 1970s.
try 1870s, some even 1770s. Even older, there are towns with Terraces older than the USA.
_Terraced houses were introduced to London from Italy in the 1630s. Covent Garden was laid out to resemble the Palazzo Thiene in Venice_
I am completely first aid trained and yet when my autistic daughter got trapped in her highchair in a position that was suffocating her I was a mess couldn't think I was just panicking and making things worse all my training went out the window and 999 had to be called fire and rescue came and we're immediately able to free her because they were calm and not attached to the child. I felt so ashamed that I couldn't help my daughter at that time I was terrified but when she saw me it made her worse. Most scary moment of my life, I could be the best medic in the world but still in that moment I was useless
any parent would be scared if that happend to their child. its a natural reaction. no shame in it.
There's no shame in that. Fear and panic effect ppl in wildly different ways for a start and for most the first you get to know how your body reacts to that adrenaline dump is when you're in the situation. Plus you hit the nail on the head, the first responders don't have the same personal attachment as you do. They care a lot obviously but the "casualty" isn't their child.
I was an RNLI volunteer and worked fast craft for years so first aid trained up the whazoo. My son had a fall when he was a toddler and hit his head on the corner of the TV stand. Head wounds bleed A LOT something I'm very aware of and have dealt with. All my experience and all my training went out the window though. By the time we got him to A&E and they asked basic stuff like "did he lose consciousness?" or "any signs of dizziness, confusion, nausea?" the only answers I had was "I don't know". I'd been to distracted freaking out about the tea towels worth of blood that was being soaked up out his head to pay attention to how he was really acting and responding to us. He did have a light concussion but no stitches or lasting damage so that was good but still sends cold shivers when I remember that.
@@MoA-Reload... its good to know I'm not the only one. Both my father and brother are RNLI volunteers nice to speak to a fellow hero
I have been a first aider in a sawmill (not joking), and I have been busy treating staff. I always found that trying to stop them from going into shock was hard sometimes. When I was learning, I used to practice with my children after work.
@@user-en1zl7ii4h same I've been practicing what I can with her since she's autistic though so I'm having to be patient quite alot
I actually think the silence (although the original broadcast had sound) makes that Ad even more powerful!
A shame they had to interrupt all the time sometimes missing the point of the advert!!
I think that everyone has noticed.
yes, they seemed to have a short attention span, or unable to really concentrate
I'm now in my 50's & I can still remember the old 70's & 80's UK Government PSA adverts. They were hard hitting, but the more up-to-date ones are truly on another level.
They are made with the full intention of shocking you & making the advert stick in your mind for a long time. Very powerful, very hard hitting & straight to point.
Anyone notice that the sex trafficking actress was Emma Thompson?
Yes :)
No, nobody noticed that internationally acclaimed actress...
@@cbjones82 I didn't notice :)
Yes....
I think a good majority do.
It seems like you have to explain every advert to the typical American’s who don’t have a clue about what’s going on, and over analyse everything.
The Advert about the tree boy if you followed the link at the end it would take you to a follow up video where you see how to save the boy...
St John Ambulance are a uk charity that teaches first aid and provides help at public events like concerts
Some might recommend that the Americans watch the advert twice, first time without talking and then second time with explanation.
My new fav reaction channel for British content. I love the dynamic here having American and a British person in the same video helps to get the understanding of the videos better. Yes in the UK we help eachother out if we can we do not mind our own business here, we lift eachother up. Example a neighbour gave me cooking apples for free so I went and picked blackberries baked an apple and blackberry crumble, I then gave a section to the lady who gave me the apples and also to my immediate neighbour who just loves my cooking. On my estate or street there isn't one house I couldn't go to for help and the same to my neighbours we got closer during lockdown and we now all check in on eachother. I also have a lady opposite me who never comes out doesn't have family and doesn't see daylight I are for her now for free so I feel better knowing she has someone even just for a short time. Dude show them the best Xmas ads man on the moon buster the dog and the John Williams one war at Xmas
Carbon Monoxide alarms not Carbon Dioxide!
and these adverts are designed for shock factor to get it into peoples heads rather than yeah yeah change channel till the programmes back on
Why do Americans need simple things like this explaining to them?
Because most of them are as thick as horseshit.
If seen two clips and now are going to watch something else can't believe this chap has to explain everything to the other two Jesus give me strength!!
Due to the failure of the American education system
St John's Ambulance is also an auxiliary service providing healthcare at events etc
You should look at the public information ads that were aimed at children in the 70's and I remember watching as a child, especially the 'dangers of unknown waters' one where death makes an apperance. Scarey but effective.
Oh my god yes - I'm STILL mentally and emotionally scarred by 'The Apaches!' It was a full-length PSA film made in the late 1970s about the dangers of playing on farms... they showed it to us in PRIMARY SCHOOL - I saw it when I was EIGHT YEARS OLD. if you've ever seen it, you know...!
(And yes, it CAN be found here on UA-cam, if you're brave - and masochistic - enough to want to put yourself through it.)
"I'll be be back..back...back..."
I'd just like to 2nd the point of ppl react in extreme situations very differently and most won't know how their body reacts to a massive adrenaline dump that comes with a big shock and emergency situation. I wouldn't be to hard on anyone that will have a panic reaction as that is a natural fight/flight/startle response and out of their control. It's not as simple as the old fashioned notion of "weak minded" or them being soft either. Also personal attachment to the casualty can have a massive impact on how someone may react seeing them in distress. There's a very good reason first responders and A&E docs and nurses WON'T be involved in treating family and loved ones if it can be avoided. That personal attachment can and does get in the way.
Im glad that in the uk we dont save peoples feeling when its something serious the brutal truth is easier to digest and deal with than sugar coating it nd no one is prepared
Slav and slave share a linguistic and practical origin.
These were not just late night ads guys.
I love the fact that now people who are in danger can give a hand signal and anyone who sees it basically it means call police now do not let that person out of your sight, the signal is hand palm out fingers straight then use your thumb and tuck it across the base of your four fingers then four fingers over the thumb that signal means I am in immediate danger please rescue me
I had to do a first aid course when got a job as a care worker.
If you try a heimlich manoeuvre and you mess it up, you can cause massive damage to the diaphram, rib cage, and lungs
11:16 after i saw that ad for the first time i stopped saying you live and learn
I had to do the 'Heimlich manouver' once, excuse the spelling, which fortunately I had learnt not long before the incident. Easy to learn and is definately a lifesaver.
I wouldn’t call these adverts. They’re not trying to sell anything. These are public information films
While in the US breaking someone's rib while saving their life could end you up in court for causing harm, the rest of the world has more common sense and people are aware that out of the two, healing from a broken rib or two is better than putting on a wooden overcoat.
i still remember the charlie the cat adverts warning of stranger danger in the 80s ua-cam.com/video/y3FnCiRpdQ4/v-deo.html and this was aimed at children.
Shut up and listen and watch tobthe end before you comment ir ask questions and I dont understand why they have to be explained in such detail they are self-explanatory
Just seen this and needed to watch the reactions. But I remember a lot of these pre-watershed, and still remember the adverts that haunt me to this day... Not in this collections but "We'll meet again" still has me checking meat every meal 🤣
Yep ...best thing you can do as a family is attend classes that will give you some knowlege in saving someones life ! ..... My son now in his forties ..had to step up and attend to a guy who had a heart attack...patient survived ,,,thank goodness ! One day you may have to do it !!
Yeah, I don't think they got it......
Watching you gentlemen and hearing your comments gives me some faith in humanity.
Listen watch and learn !
ua-cam.com/video/Aa3o7vWG93w/v-deo.htmlsi=ok_vCgjndLuMkau1... its the sequal, a couple years later follows girl in no.1 save the children... somehow even more harrowing
Americans take everything literally don't they? 😂 And the tree one where the guy was more concerned with the change in weather and how that could be than the meaning behind it lol😂
guys just to let you know, you may or may not know, but spread the word anyway, there is a hand gesture recognised, for help, hand up, open hand, thumb in, close and open your 4 fingers make a fist open it, it can be done easy with out you captor knowing, so many have been saved, through this gesture, where they have done it, to CCTV on towns and cities, so spread that word guys, look it up, teach yourselfs and your children
We can care for all kinds of slavery, you can't just cancel or ignore the ugly past.
no one is forgetting what happend in the past , but people seem to care more about slavery in the past rather than the slavery still happening today that affect the people of today
they not saying to ignore the past, but thousands if not millions of people are still suffering from child labour, sex trafficking and other forms of slavery today, that should be the focus rather than nobody helping them as everyone shouting at what happened 200+ years ago while all the guilty people are long dead
It's also the fact that it's a skewed view like blaming white people for all of it like Africa hasn't been doing it for thousands of years and still continue to do so. Or that they took many white slaves from Britain to Africa before the trans Atlantic slave trade even began . Or they leave out the Muslim slave trade. You cant pick and choose history to create a false narrative, it's manipulative and it is clearly to push an agenda.
"Is she an actress" seriously? Yes, they cured her for the first part of the advert then took it away for the second part
You’ve never had to give CPR to the love of your life, can’t stop, constantly carrying on in the hopes they’ll live and to have the paramedics tell you to stop.
It’s a no from me guys giggle fest I don’t need.
no fun got it
there are videos, where they have a new global sign, like the sign language, as we have cameras in every high street, we need to train operators as well as victims to learn this sign, its a closed fist then open hand back to a closed fist, it is catching on, but needs to be quicker
yeah most uk houses are plasterboard like you guys were saying , you can lean on the wall and go through it, and most uk houses have 2 smoke alarms, 1 upstairs 1 downstairs, but dioxide/monoxide detectors have started to be put in houses now
Most POST-WAR UK houses, not the older ones.
Their Lack of a basic ability to watch and not talk over it until the end speaks volumes about their attention spans.
Yep, I agree with some of the comments below...none of you came across well watching this is, talk about American stereotypes...
10 in america you cant take your eye off your kids for a second
Guys ffs, WATCH THE AD WITHOUT INTERRUPTING, then you'll understand, as you're missing the point of the advert. Afterwards talk about it.
You skipped the one with the 3 men constantly talking and not paying attention and reading the titles of adverts getting beaten with a baseball bat.
You heard Sarah`s bones breaking.
OMG shut up and just watch the ads, then comment!!!
I think you might find there are a few that youtube will not let you air.
how clueless are these yanks
the british actor david niven died of motor neurone disease.
So have a lot of people. Niven was no different to many others but he's the one that gets a mention.
@@pianoboylaker6560so what, it wouldn't be possible to mention every poor person who has suffered or died from Parkinson's disease, so what's your point, try thinking about what you are going to say before posting, make it make sense,
The two chaps on the left are so frustrating. Jeez.
Are these grown men.
Stop talking and watch the adverts
too much talking and not playing vid
Real Children Don't Bounce back.
the pausing and talkiing was quite bad, just play the video
these kind advertisement / public interest AD's are no longer on the woke population would not allow it it would traumatize there little lives you know reality 😊
Can we have fewer of these depressing public information ads and a few more funny ones? - I keep hoping for the Audi one.
You totally destroyed this . I'm out of here. Give your tongues a rest!
The thing with most British adverts is that 90+% of them blame men…
The worst reaction video ever, chatting over the video at key times, chatting shit “how smoke alarms do you have in your house” ? WTAF
They say a lot about slavery in the past. But if you want to know about slavery today, watch that movie..., Sound of freedom. It'll open your eyes to a lot of what's going on now.
Worst reaction video I've seen, won't be watching them again.
So sad, but it's definitely true , America's education system has failed,,
