Americans React to | TOP 10: MOST EFFECTIVE BRITISH ADVERTS | StayingOffTopic 

I've just watched an American couple watch the same video and they was shocked and moved. It got through to them

@@sarahfields288 Well that’s the minority.

@@AleahMartin961 Every American I've seen react to this, has either cried or felt deeply about it. Stop trying to spread your personal feelings as a fact. You're just wrong.

@@Sacred_Silence Well not in this video so clearly your wrong…

I completely agree with you. For the Staying off topic team let me put it this way. Imagine sitting down to watch your all time favourite programme, then having to pause it every 5 minutes to explain / answer questions about it. Completely ruins what you're watching.

@@dev1346 It’s literally a reaction video do you expect them not to talk or what. If you don’t want talking then go and watch the original video

So relieved that yours was the first comment....I read and skipped watching it. Many thanks for the warning, they would have had me pulling my hair out in frustration.

​@@takashiz-1731 don't be an idiot mate - if they're yakking over everything that happens, how can they react. Fool.

Its a reaction video, not a sit silently and watch video, the clues in the name dummy

He also said she became a “vegetable” bloody idiot

Lol, they did my head in. A 4 yr old would comprehend faster.

I actually had flashbacks. Very nearly cried because I was so close to some of them. The Barnardo's especially, I was a whisker away from being taken into care. Even now I'm f*cked up, but the family rallied round and saved me. im not sure I've been saved, just deferred. 66 now but my past never really leaves, it's the quiet moments when the memories invade

i know, bro, same vintage. but hey, we're still here, to keep trying. @@howardchambers9679

So sad but it's definitely true , what they say about the American education system,

I can cope with the ads but not these numpties chirping in constantly missing the point

@@paulbromley6687 What a couple of complete dipsticks, I've known five year old's with more intelligence than these two!!

The guy literally said the lady in the motor neurone disease was a vegetable. The bloke is an idiot

And being so judgemental 😊

I think that everyone has noticed.

yes, they seemed to have a short attention span, or unable to really concentrate

The French and Spanish are similar. They don't sugar coat things. They're not quite as brutal, but they certainly don't gloss things over

We are brutal. I agree with you on that, although Ive come across a few Parisians in my time who have made me go ouch! 😆@@adrianboardman162

Blimey, don’t be so harsh. They might have trouble understanding the accents.

@@Roz-y2d I think they're just very dim.

any parent would be scared if that happend to their child. its a natural reaction. no shame in it.

There's no shame in that. Fear and panic effect ppl in wildly different ways for a start and for most the first you get to know how your body reacts to that adrenaline dump is when you're in the situation. Plus you hit the nail on the head, the first responders don't have the same personal attachment as you do. They care a lot obviously but the "casualty" isn't their child. I was an RNLI volunteer and worked fast craft for years so first aid trained up the whazoo. My son had a fall when he was a toddler and hit his head on the corner of the TV stand. Head wounds bleed A LOT something I'm very aware of and have dealt with. All my experience and all my training went out the window though. By the time we got him to A&E and they asked basic stuff like "did he lose consciousness?" or "any signs of dizziness, confusion, nausea?" the only answers I had was "I don't know". I'd been to distracted freaking out about the tea towels worth of blood that was being soaked up out his head to pay attention to how he was really acting and responding to us. He did have a light concussion but no stitches or lasting damage so that was good but still sends cold shivers when I remember that.

@@MoA-Reload... its good to know I'm not the only one. Both my father and brother are RNLI volunteers nice to speak to a fellow hero

I have been a first aider in a sawmill (not joking), and I have been busy treating staff. I always found that trying to stop them from going into shock was hard sometimes. When I was learning, I used to practice with my children after work.

@@SeanSenior-f8b same I've been practicing what I can with her since she's autistic though so I'm having to be patient quite alot

Because most of them are as thick as horseshit.

Yes :)

No, nobody noticed that internationally acclaimed actress...

@@cbjones82 I didn't notice :)

Yes....

I think a good majority do.

Oh my god yes - I'm STILL mentally and emotionally scarred by 'The Apaches!' It was a full-length PSA film made in the late 1970s about the dangers of playing on farms... they showed it to us in PRIMARY SCHOOL - I saw it when I was EIGHT YEARS OLD. if you've ever seen it, you know...! (And yes, it CAN be found here on RU-vid, if you're brave - and masochistic - enough to want to put yourself through it.)

"I'll be be back..back...back..."

I remember as a child in the early 2000s, the NSPCC advert about abandoned children terrified me. I had an irrational fear for a long time growing up, that my parents would leave me behind one day. So I do agree certain PSAs should be after the watershed, because I know first hand, they can scare the shit out of children and can effect them negatively

Due to the failure of the American education system

no fun got it

Chill, it was only in the beginning before they knew what was coming

So have a lot of people. Niven was no different to many others but he's the one that gets a mention.

​@@pianoboylaker6560so what, it wouldn't be possible to mention every poor person who has suffered or died from Parkinson's disease, so what's your point, try thinking about what you are going to say before posting, make it make sense,

no one is forgetting what happend in the past , but people seem to care more about slavery in the past rather than the slavery still happening today that affect the people of today

they not saying to ignore the past, but thousands if not millions of people are still suffering from child labour, sex trafficking and other forms of slavery today, that should be the focus rather than nobody helping them as everyone shouting at what happened 200+ years ago while all the guilty people are long dead

It's also the fact that it's a skewed view like blaming white people for all of it like Africa hasn't been doing it for thousands of years and still continue to do so. Or that they took many white slaves from Britain to Africa before the trans Atlantic slave trade even began . Or they leave out the Muslim slave trade. You cant pick and choose history to create a false narrative, it's manipulative and it is clearly to push an agenda.

​@@BrightstoneGG And their black ancestors are alive now....LIKE ME!!! The reason why you want to brush it under the carpet is because you don't want to hear about the level of depravity the slave owners went to. Watch the video about how to break a female 'N' and how to break a buck. The result of what happened 200yrs ago is walking around now. Black people with english, scottish,welsh,irish,french,spanish and whatever else names. We will never know what our real names are,never know what part of Africa we come from, never know our African relatives. We have had so much taken from us and people like you continually try to make it sound like it wasn't that bad,because slavery was everywhere. Not that type of slavery. Stop comparing modern slavery to black slavery. They are vastly different.
