Ray Mears... Gocompare advert?

[kard133]

Has anyone else seen the Gocompare advert where Ray traps that annoying in a net? Who else would have been happier if it was a more lethal trap? Any comments on what trap should have been used?

maybe you have to treat him like a lobster and drop him live into the boiling pan of water? I think Ray was reaching for his spork

Ever seen 'The Green Berets'? Remember the spring loaded and swing into *spikey boards*?

Who else would have been happier if it was a more lethal trap?

I wish him well in his future endeavours. Hopefully a 2am slot on radio doing mime .

Should have been a bhutanese spear trap.

Never trust a skinny survival expert......... In Ray, we trust !

I haven't seen auntie Ray in ages. Shame the ad wasn't funny or creative............I suppose most of the budget went to pay for Ray's cameo appearence.

i think the go compare folk are very clever to turn a annoying add in to one that is being talked a bout on a bushcraft forum thats just what a good add should do i still turn the sound down anyway i not seen this add yet up here in scotland they must be trying it out on you Southerners first

They would be if that was their intention but I think their aim was to try & sell on-liine car insurance with an ad that cost less than 250 quid to make. The fact that half a dozen folk with nothing better to do, pass a few comments on a forum is purely coincidental.

there might be only a dozen folk talking about it wiyh nothing better to do but so far in one day over 400 folk with nothing better to do have looked at the post
