Oh I love my country (commercial)

Seems like this commercial, which has been the talk of the town among male coworkers all over the country, has reached outside our borders

Michael Arrington over at Techcrunch call it the best commercial ever made [link]. You can watch it over there, or here (it's the top movie).

If you are someone who would be offended by swarms of huge womens breasts - id' really recommend you not to click that link!

Only the Danish could get away with something like this (but how great would it be to see Amazon do commercials like this). Danish ecommerce site Fleggaard recently made the commercial below. I don’t know if it was shown on Danish television (I’m trying to find out), but I wouldn’t be surprised.

It most definitely contains nudity and is NSFW. I think it would be just as good without the exposed breasts, though. If you don’t watch it, the highlight is that dozens of topless Danish women link hands during a skydive to advertise a Siemens washing machine for 4,999.00 DKK, or about $900. It doesn’t seem like such a great price, but I’ll buy one anyway if they deliver to California.
The whole thing is a pun - it's a shop just across border to Germany, where they sell cheaper products to mainly Danish customers - the phrase just over the border which is the theme of the commercial, can also mean just over the line or just a tad over the top
