    The Guinness surfer is still the pinnacle for me. It's what pushed me into advertising as a creatuve/copywriter. Failing to replicate it is what pushed me out of the industry.

    It's the best of adverts. It's the worst of adverts.

    All the **** Guinness did with AMV BBDO that followed are huge winners too. The swimmer, the cloud, the clock, the sapeurs. Just ****ing genius.

    It’s got to the Rolo advert with the baby elephant who grows up and whacks the spectator during the circus parade - sweet revenge if you will pardon the pun .

    Cheers Ozzy, I just love the antipodean humour <ok> Walking through Bunnings and seeing shelves full of "Start Ya Bastard" cracked me up :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

    I'll try and dig out a few more. The Bundy Rum drop bear ads are pretty good

    One of the funniest things I have ever seen was a news interview with two Aussies who had foiled a robbery when they were walking home after a night out.
    It's not an advert so don't want to post it on this thread but it is still available on YouTube
