Oldies will remember these from the 70's. Kids getting killed/ maimed doing dumb things. Falling into silos, drinking bleach, kites touching pilons.

What new adverts would you like them to make, to 'educate the masses'?

What about Tufty squirrel, and Bobby weasel binge drinking, and nicking that icecream van that they always got knocked over whilst trying to reach?

Could end with them going through the windscreen as they didnt have seatbelts on?

The frisbee one absolutely horrified me as a kid. I was terrified of small substations that are around. I guess it worked.

I remember one up in the library as a kid warning about falling through glass. It was massively graphic, I couldnt stop looking at the picture but was horrified. Bit much for a kids library.

I go to Scandinavia quite a lot and a few years ago a busy rural train yard had no security fencing etc

Someone asked the manager "what about accidents to trespassers" and the guy just smiled and said the Swedish equivalent of "shouldn't be here so they get what they deserve"

Not from here but the Americans used to broadcast these public information infomercial on the radio and one I remember was if you were busy and couldn't watch your favourite tv programme then they recommended "time shifting" it took me a while to realise they meant video it and watch it later.
