I was really happy when a friend sent that to me.
You should have seen Cyclist watch it...
I was like, "Zach - come here - Krystina sent a website you will like."
He got all serious and was really focused on counting the passes. He said "13" the second the action froze and when it appeared on the screen he looked smug as hell. Then it was like "but did you see a moonwalking bear?" Zach didn't believe it at first - then he saw it and laughed. Then it said, "Blah, blah blah cyclists. All grins for Mr. Henkel.

I've seen videos like that and was prepared for there to be something similar going on (last one I watched had a guy in a gorilla costume walk across the screen). Still, I didn't see the bear, even though I knew to look for it or something similar.
That would lead me to believe that it's a very clever video, and yet makes for a stupid analogy to looking for cyclists.

I guess when PSAs try to be coercive through false analogies, I tend to be turned off to whatever message they're trying to put forth. Something about groups putting their own interests ahead of basic common sense. Not that I'm going to go out and mow down cyclists as a result, but I can't help but think of cyclist interest groups a bit less favorably than I did before.
It's like, "This is your brain... This is your brain on drugs." Yeah, glad I saw that before I decided to 'fry my brain!'

hahahah.
If you like the cylist one - go to their main page and check out the motorcycle, and teen driving ones. Those are AWFUL.
I was just happy the cyclists got the hip PSA with the UK version of the hipster globetrotters.
