Humorous today, overtly serious in the '60s; from the Hemmings Blog today.

What a hoot, thanks Michael!

This was truly a scary movie.  Watching that kid deliberately dump his bike WITH NO HELMET is unbelievable.  Watch closely and you will see how narrowly he missed possible head injury.
And the guy kicking those beautiful white walls.  Scary!
But the funniest part was the myth of two cars traveling at 30 mph hitting head-on creating the impact of driving into a wall at 60.  Wrong.  I guess there were no fact checkers at General.

Best,
Greg

Hey, it was the 1960s!  Who cared about FACTS??!!

Nice post ... I would think this ad campaign was probably very successful ... and couldn't help notice the Rod Serlingesque feel they mimicked. Very fun.
