you may be killed after watching this ad

You're probably thinking that you die just a little inside, every time you're forced to watch the Toyota "Saved by Zero" ad. You're not alone. There's online protests, Facebook groups and plenty of fuel fired to take the annoying ad off the air.

Now, there's proof that the spot will kill you. If you see it again, just turn it off. Immediately.

SBZ has clearly failed here, but don't forget the many others that have succeeded.
