I find this infomercial spot so funny. Every infomercial is ridiculous but this one is just so good on so many levels. The unintentional comedy meter is really peaking on this one. I especially love how it needs a dry time of 24 hours to mount a shelf bracket yet only 5 minutes of dry time to become a link in a chain lifting a cinder block.
The greatest irony is that I saw this spot on Teletoon Retro this morning. I don't know if anyone ever watches Teletoon Retro but it's really funny how most of the commercials aren't for kids stuff but for adults. Do kids even watch this station? It seems like the channel targets people who are old enough to remember watching this stuff 20+ years ago more than actual kids.
P.S. This is the US version of the spot because the Canadian version off the company's website auto starts when the blog loads and I didn't want to subject everyone to it unless they wanted to be. You're welcome!
