old safety ads on rte

eddiehitler

anybody remember those old safety ads the national safety council used to have on rte? i remember the one with the couch going up in flames cos of the cigarette falling on it. it used to go on for about 5 minutes that ad. for some reason it used to freak me out! im not sure if this one existed but i seem to remember one with a guy who did his own repairs on a drill and goes to plug it in and electrocutes himself. anybody remember those or am i goin crazy?? if so any idea wher i could get to see them again?

don't bother

I tried a couple of years ago - RTE told me they didn't own the rights to those ads. A lot of them were Health Education Bureau - wonder does that organisation still exist?
