Youtube Classics – Powerthirst Energy Drink
July 14th, 2009 | Posted by Jeff
I have a new YouTube phenomenon that I’d like to describe:
You watch a viral video and it’s funny. However, since you watch like 50 videos a day, you really forget about how funny it is. Months later, you see the video again and are reminded by how absolutely awesome it is! That happened with me in this faux-commercial about an Energy drink called Powerthirst. This ficticious energy drink is advertised much like a monster truck rally commercial, yet more hilarious.
Rather than bore you of my analysis of why this video is so great, I think I would be better off just displaying quotes and features of Powerthirst:
- Gratuitious Amounts of Energy
- SHOCKOLATE – Chocolate energy. It’s like adding chocolate to an electrical storm!
- Sound the alarm, you’re going to be uncomfortably energetic
- What’s that, you want Strawberry? Well, how about RAWBERRY. Made with lighning. Real lightning.
- Sports, you’ll be good at them. It’s an energy drink for men. MENERGY!
- These aren’t your dads puns. Turbopuns!
- You’ll have so much energy. Just running ALL THE TIME. Power running, power lifting, power sleeping, power dating, power eating, power spotting, BABIES
- You’ll have so many BABIES. 400 babies. Give shockolate to your babies and they will be good at sports.
- They will run as fast as Kenyans
Ok, I give up. Transcribing this video is giving me an ANEURISM.
