Dumb ways to die

[district]

Has anyone seen this? Catchy little video which accompanies an iPhone game. It's a railway safety campaign from an Australian metro company.

That's very good. Message is serious but it also brought a smile to my face.

Isn't there a metro company in Oz that has posters like 'Paul was going to jump in front of the train. Frank tried to stop him but knew not to cross the yellow line. Nice work Frank' I've seen loads on Facebook.

Being from the city of Melbourne myself, where Metro is based, my only regret is it has not been advertised on TV at all yet.

There are posters of the different characters at railway stations.

Yeah that's Queensland Rail that have done that. Think the ****take ones outnumber the real ones. Very good though.
TransPerth also have some good ones!

Tune was kind of grating...

Been on Metro train services today. Noticed they are posting a lot of those advertisements inside their trains.

I wish I had a camera with me at the time.

Just put this on, to be greeted with "We know this", and my kids sang and clapped along with it!

I have seen it before as someone posted it on my Facebook wall a few weeks back

Watched it again yesterday and found myself humming the tune at work this morning :/

Saw it on twitter months ago. I caught myself singing it to myself at work yesterday...

I was shown this by my neighbour some time ago. Still makes me laugh.
