I'm guessing that this guy is kind of like the crazy Oxy Clean guy over here, though why someone would bother making a techno music video about an infomercial celebrity is kind of beyond me. :P

That is the best, most retarded commercial ever. :lol:

That kind of reminds me of something I saw a while ago on ytmnd.
It's the infamous corn nuts.

Saw this when it got posted on SB.

Also found out Barry Scott isn't even a real man, he's played by an actor.

Ummm, duh? It's a classic piss-take bit of advertising...

You do know it was shown on british TV, with no techno music?

If you're talking to me, yes. I have every version of every advert on my mobile as ringtones.

Yes. I am, in fact, British, if that fact had somehow escaped your notice, and I do indeed watch television (though I often wonder why). As I said, it's a piss-take advertising scheme. As in, taking the piss out of adverts that used to do that kind of cheesy crap years ago. Which is why it's rather clever. Not because it's some chap in a stupid suit.

I thought it was just an incredibly cheesy and crap advert.

I hate those damn PC World adverts. Okay, I get it, it's got an damn Pentium 4 (with HT Technology) processor. I mean, twice in like 15 seconds (plus the intel logo sequence just to really drive home the point) ? Drives me insane.
