  • Darran Edmundson

    Where is this?

  • glamaFez

    It’s just like Zager & Evans tried to tell us, only it’s sooner and not black.

  • Henrix

    Brilliant! It takes me back to 70′s in Sweden.
    Learning about human bodies and reproduction isn’t harmful for kids. If you can let them see god knows how many violent murders every day on TV you can let them know about sex.

    I dare say it’s not in the US.

    How is this inappropriate? Children come out of penises every day, after all. ;)

  • optuser

    Make the slide kids wear all white.

  • Sandbox World

    Did Roger Daltrey open an amusement park?

  • Xeni Jardin

    @sandboxworld You mean Pete Townsend.

  • i_prefer_yeti

    That’s nothing, you should see the fallopian tube water slide they got going on the other side of the park.

  • Elvis Pelt

    Krispy Kreme fevah!

  • Anonymous

    Pretty sure that would be prosecutable as a Federal felony child sex offense here in the “Land of the Free” ™.

  • Anonymous

    I can’t get over the way it heaves and quivers before emitting a child…

  • Cicada

    This is the greatest ad for condom use ever.

    “Brilliant! It takes me back to 70′s in Sweden”.

    You mean when child pornography was produced commercially and sold openly on shop shelves?
    Wonderful.

    #27, Julian Koster is an amazing human being, thanks for this clip.

  • EH

    the Norm MacDonald video has taken a dump for me.

  • Anonymous

    It’s a clown penis?

  • Anonymous

    reminds me of the inflatable snake in Phoeni Nights

  • EH

    nevermind. looks like nbc doesn’t like it when you blackhole ad.doubleclick.net

    @ Xeni – I think perhaps sandbox does mean Daltrey – in reference to the film Lisztomania, where he sprouts a 7-foot phallus.

  • MrJM

    “What brings you into the office today?”

    “It’s my penis doc… I’ve got this childish discharge…”

    “It’s not what it looks!”

  • PixelFish

    This reminds me of the inflatable laser tag arena they had set up at my company picnic. It had the same weird nodes on the side of the inflatable walls and they actually looked rather like the folds of the labia. None of the little kids noticed,natch.

    Well, this really turns the whole ‘men will be redundant in the future’ thing on its head, doesn’t it?

  • Boba Fett Diop

    This is my favorite musical saw moment:

    (wait until about 1:14)

    Also, as a straight(ish) man, I can honestly say that I’m a little bit in love with Timaya.

    Hail Mary on a Musical Saw, followed by Jumpin’ Jesus on a Pogo Stick!

  • thequickbrownfox

    Gerry Phillips is the guy playing the music.

    He produces these sounds by squeezing his hands together.
