"The best one ever is the one I’ve recently mentioned on another thread. The consent one based round having a cup of tea
https://youtu.be/pZwvrxVavnQ" This has actually proven very helpful to me.
So….if they say no to tea, I force a coffee down them?

"America had the "this is your brain on drugs" fried egg... We had Charlie who warned us of plenty; but not drugs! Which was fortunate once the Prodigy got hold of him and we all bounced around to his yowling off our tits!" Good old Charlie I remember his wise words to this day:
‘Meeooowwww, meoooow, meeeeooowww, meeooow.’

"The Coast Guard one from the 70’s where the yacht was sinking and the hapless husband ashore watching through binos pronouncing “ ah up Petunia, he’s waving at us now” classic." I remember it I think the same animated couple appeared in a countryside code advert also wherein they dropped litter and angered the local farmer. | |||

"There are many videos on YouTube showing the scariest PIFs. Who remembers that advert on what to do and not do when it comes to chip pan fires and then it shows a burn victim in a recording booth and gives you a close up of her face?" I remember that
Shock tactics are certainly effective - I’ve never forgotten the prevention steps to this day. | |||

"I went to agricultural college. We regulary had to watch tractor safety films. 'Know your tractor, know your ground' has stuck with me. We never hardly got to play with the damn tractors but I know how not to be mangled in a pto shaft or plough sideways on a vertical hill at 30mph. "Did they show the Apache PIF as well? The message was definitely to tell kids not to play around on farms and equipment as they can be dangerous but it's still pretty messed up how it plays out like Final Destination for kids. | |||

"To my mind, they've now incorporated all the public health messages in soaps such as EastEnders. They're always telling us what to do. Casualty's particularly bad on this score: practically every ailment is self-inflicted." I agree. As much as it is good to have a storyline that spreads awareness of certain health issues, there does seem to be too many of them which does get in the way of giving decent entertainment and it makes the soaps kind of depressing to be honest. | |||

"Who remembers that PIF known as 'Searching' where the camera goes through a burnt down house with the ghostly echoing voices of a family calling out to each other? Probably one of the scariest fire safety adverts ever made. Here it is: https://youtu.be/92xPM7JR2NU That is genuinely unsettling
I agree. I've always wondered if they got filming permission to go through the house that burnt down as it looked too real to be a set."I remember that one! As soon as i heard the kid shout mummy I blurted out keep matches away from children! It was the 70s they defo would have got permission, or maybe they were the original urbexers! Although it didn't work with me. I was a right pyro! | |||

"I went to agricultural college. We regulary had to watch tractor safety films. 'Know your tractor, know your ground' has stuck with me. We never hardly got to play with the damn tractors but I know how not to be mangled in a pto shaft or plough sideways on a vertical hill at 30mph.
Did they show the Apache PIF as well?
The message was definitely to tell kids not to play around on farms and equipment as they can be dangerous but it's still pretty messed up how it plays out like Final Destination for kids."We got that at assembly. Traumatised us into submission. Did anyone else get the 'Don't go with strangers' one that had the line "If you go with strangers, you'll never see mummy again!"? Terrifying at that age, but 100% effective | |||

" I don't recall ever being terrified by any PIF. They never seemed to have bothered me when I was a kid." Ours were designed to shock. That said, the ones that Aussies do are just as effective. As it's a PIF, the gloves are off - you rarely see anything gory, but it's no less scary for that. If anything, it can be nightmare fuel. | |||

"The one that haunted me as a kid was the one about not walking on frozen ponds. They showed some lads playing and the ice cracking. We got shown that in primary school one winter when some kids had been playing on an old curling pond in the woods when it iced. I think I was about 8 and it was terrifying. I hated the kite one with the power lines as well. Used to drive my Dad mad checking for power lines with my kite that never got more than a foot above my head

"Slightly off topic but still relevant, had any one been to hazard alley in Milton Keynes. I went with school and it sounds just like these clips, but it's interactive you see all kinds of potential hazards and it helps train your brain to be shit scared of any potential scenario that you may encounter in life ever. https://youtu.be/04-KX5eqnEI " That looks really fun but simultaneously serving as very useful in teaching children of the many dangers they may face in different situations. A really fantastic idea | |||

"Who remembers these wonderful short films that used to feature just before shutdown on the BBC? I always found them scary as a kid (staying up later than I should have!) Nonetheless, they obviously did their job admirably as I still recall vividly (and indeed graphically), why never to play frisbee near pylons…,whilst wearing bell bottoms "I'm still waiting for that arsehole who overtakes me on a country lane to end up in the ditch further down the road

"…..So we now all know that we can’t climb pylons, can’t use escalators, can’t play on train tracks, can’t drive cars, nor tractors, can’t cross roads, can’t talk to strangers and can’t even cross our own laminated floor(!) and pretty much everything else besides. Surely the only safe thing left is to sit, shivering in fear in our homes (fully carpeted and with no gloss paint on the polystyrene tiles) right? …..Wrong! https://youtu.be/UgOybc8Jdoo "That one was pretty much the British equivalent to 'Duck and Cover'. | |||

"... I only remember it because he was climbing the pylon and I've always fancied climbing a pylon so i was gutted!" I saw the exact same storyline in Casualty once. Kid goes up a pylon to retrieve his kite. Some jerk shouts up to him to get down. The kid reacts to the shout, gets electrocuted. I'm not sure how prevalent pylon electrocution is in our modern society, but it looks like we need to be warned about it frequently. | |||
