Fun but flawed

This is regarding a TV ad, so if you don’t get time to watch TV then this blog will not be interesting to you. Fevicol, has been very innovative in bringing up TV Ads and I find those Ads very funny, anyway the Ads are able to get the viewer’s attention.

The specific Ad I am talking about is the one where two aliens, standing on their spaceship, land over a village. They then announce that they will make everything fly in the air. Some four hose arms then come out of the spaceship and dig into the ground. Slowly everything seems to be flying like there was no gravity at all. And this everything involves cow, men, household equipment, radio etc. Then one of the flying man grabs a flying Fevicol can and pour the fevicol into a well. Suddenly, everything that was flying comes down to earth; finally gravity takes over the alien force. Well, that is the complete Ad and a very good one, I will say.

There is one more thing to laugh in the Ad, logically; you see a flaw in the Ad. Let us assume that the aliens can make everything fly and let us assume that the Fevicol is a excellent Glue that can even undermine the alien forces. However, if everything is flying up in the sky, how can someone pour “DOWN” the glue into a well, what made the glue come down towards earth.

The next time you see this Ad, smile for a different reason!!!
