Have you been decapitated by a Ford lately?

AFter I read the Snopes article about dogs and grapes, I found another one.

It seems that Ford Motors ran an ad showing a Ford Sportka decapitating a cat who was curious about the sunroof. The status of the claim is 'true'!


I am not in advertising, but this does not seem like a Good Idea to me. The company claims it is CGI. The clip of the ad is ooky.

I remember reading that a few weeks ago, too. I'm leaning more toward the belief that it was the ad agency getting carried away without explicit permission to make the thing, then it got leaked.

Still sick that someone would make it, even as a goof-off project.

I am more frightened by the numbsculls that will try to recreate this advert!

There's no way any cat would sit still for that. Unless it were a deaf cat. But even deaf cats can feel vibrations.

The commercial is CGI, and I don't think anyone could recreate it in real life because of the above.
