1980's Australian Government: Go out, exercise, be fit, take care of your health. 2020's Australian Government: FEAR PORN! Be very scared, be very afraid. Don't leave your home, peons! Be Xenophobic against your neighbours. Dob them in! Wear a bacteria-ridden magical square cloth in front of your respiratory tract all day long. You want to go out and exercise? Well, no, fuck you.
They should make an updated version of this, but unfortunately not many are concerned about this issue anymore (plus advertisers wouldn't like this of course)
I doubt these ads achieved anything but it was a good gravy train for those employed by government to turn out all this stuff while being non accountable to anyone. If they'd been effective then tjey would have continued in some form untii the present.
The only reason i saw it its because my teacher showed us a video from life be in it and then one of the students asked can we still see this videos and the teacher said yes on RU-vid so i just wanted to see the videos and sorry SO long
I was one of those kids growing up in the 80’s and the fitness tracker was not invented in those days so my generation didn’t bother being very active!But now the fitness tracker gives today’s young generation a much better chance to be a lot more active than my generation did growing up yes I do have one myself and I should use it a lot more!👍🏻😊😀
Dude, we were outside all the time in the 1980s, because there was so little at home to do. Obese people were like rare Pokemon in those days. We're all much more sedentary now because we have all this indoor technology and media now, so we have to deliberately schedule fresh air and exercise - especially those of us starting to look like Norm from these ads lol
@@sandwichbreath0 yes - fat kids were rare back then, but public health could see the way the wind was blowing (that there’d be a generation of Norms) and Life Be In It was a fantastic campaign.
This ad had my little toddler screaming in literal fear every time it played on the tv. He would run crying from the room. I had thought that kids would love the song but I truly hate it now.
