Good insight but some creative dude will be looking for a job very soon as this ad will cause a bit of a stir.

He can wait in line at the soup kitchen along side the marketing guy that approved the ad.
I think it’s pretty clever. The guy tries to kill himself in the car using the exhaust with the motor running, but because it’s a hybrid “it uses less gas”, so he was waiting too long to die and gets out and hangs himself instead. Of course the ad isn’t meant for all people - different cultures have different ideas about what’s funny. I was born in America, but my parents red me Struewelpeter, Max und Moritz and stories by the Brothers Grimm. Kids get their thumbs cut off with scissors, a girl goes on fire, a kid drowns in the river, a bunch of kids get dunked in tar, etc - to me those are bedtime stories I enjoyed immensely, the same as all German kids born over there - so a lot of German Americans born here who still have the culture will like that ad.
