Isn't 'Life flows better' a Visa campaign?... fail
comments
@yeahinabituk I think that's the point

Look at the copy again :) @yeahinabituk

McCann Birmingham should be ashamed. Very poor taste and disrespectful to those brave souls that put themselves in danger
comments
@webma17101 I agree, I'm sick of seeing 'shock tactics' used in an attempt to be funny. Its not clever, it's not outside the box, it's just rubbish, thoughtless & in such bad taste.
comments
Totally agree with @webma17101
comments
@webma17101 I think this campaign is about pushing the boundaries. I don't think any of them are to be taken in any way seriously.

Not sure what's worse. The ad, or ripping off a Jimmy Carr joke.
comments
Your beef is with Jimmy Carr. It's his gag.
comments
Just goes to show........McCanns can't come up with anything original, just because a crap comedian comes up with a gag doesn't mean you have endorse it in this way, don't try and defend this even if it is for a laugh in this context, no excuse @Gentle lovemaking
comments
Agree. What were McCann Birmingham thinking! Poor taste, not funny and not creative. Who the hell signed that one off! Think alot of clients will be giving them a wide berth in the future.
comments
I wouldn't want to be a McCann Birm client if it takes 12 people's time to rip someone else's idea off...

Pure creativity!
