Amazing indeed, though it looks like a mis-en-scene. Oddly enough I never managed to find the site of the two London agency guys mentioned in the video (MPA).
And I'd like to point out that Dutch site Flabber.nl carried this item already on April 24th (I noted your demand for mentioning Fresh Creation as source, on Adrants...) The video has been on Youtube since last August.

@Michael: Yes, I was wondering if it's true too... But they don't seem to be acting... Or they're amazing actors :-)

About the source-issue: I didn't 'demand' anything... I simply left a comment saying a link would be appreciated since I gave Adrants the tip about the video (after which they added the post). What happened was that Adrants forgot to mention this (normally they always add a link to the source). I received an email from Adrants with their apologies and instant modification of the post with a link to FC.

The most common rule among bloggers is that they link to the website where they spotted the news. That way you pay respect to the website that provided the news that you're using. That's why I added the link to the site where I found the news... But let's not get into a discussion like that here... If you want to talk about that, send me an email and I'll be more than happy to go into it.

Point taken about sourcing.

I believed everthing I saw and was really flabbergasted... Good video, whatever the source.

@Jos: I was impressed too. I told many people about the video. It really makes you aware of how much influence advertising has on you.
