Info: This is a 'spec ad', created by leeanddan.com.

Spec ads are 'speculative ads' created to show potential clients what kind of work you're capable of doing. In other words, Volkswagen never endorsed this material.

Lee (of Lee and Dan) says that he wasn't working for Volkswagen, but implies that he made the ad to get Volkswagen's attention. Reportedly the ad cost £40,000.

The fake Volkswagen suicide bomber viral ad has received international media coverage and stimulated a heated debate all over the world. But what do you think about this ad? We want to know.

good ad. VW is the stupidest company in this world

Guest: Guest (485 days ago)

I hope they air this in the Middle East. People there should know that despite best efforts to scare other nations we're still able to take their threats, terrorism and boasts and reduce it to nothing more than a car commercial.

Guest: ray (1504 days ago)

Brilliant. Not insensitive. It's actually more insensitive when people really do blow themselves up and other people with them. Muslims, IRA whatever, they're the scum, not the people who made this, quite frankly, powerful and thought provoking a

I'm glad it's fake because it is in bad taste!

Guest: mimi (1504 days ago)

its crap

Guest: Gernot (1504 days ago)

real great

Guest: the bla-bla-kid (1504 days ago)

Who cares?

Guest: Rick (1504 days ago)

I think the ad is great because it brings a well needed sese of humour to the face of terrorism and war.

Guest: Lee (1504 days ago)

Why do folk think so much? Its a laugh, a pee-take... It's good!!!

Guest: Brad Nelson (1504 days ago)

I know that this commercial is not "politically correct." However, I think it is very funny! It makes the point very well. Too bad the VW people are wound up so tightly.

Guest: John M (1377 days ago)

Bad taste.

Guest: Marie (1504 days ago)

Way too funny

Guest: Liam (1504 days ago)

This is too sick and insulting for words. I am surprised that some people believe there is some kind of statement going on here.Listen kids, laughing at dead people isn't big or clever.

Guest: slamson (1504 days ago)

I think it was great! One of the best I have ever seen! Well deserved aplauds!

Guest: Mary (474 days ago)

I loved it.

Guest: Phil (1377 days ago)

It's so morally wrong it's great.

Guest: anon (1504 days ago)

Sick, but funny. And being funny is what matters. I loved it.

Guest: SK (1504 days ago)

ANYONE -- without exception -- for whom bombing civilians is "acceptable" deserves neither support nor sympathy regardless of motivation... If they kill themselves in the process of trying, hey... evolution's slow but it DOES get the job done.

Guest: arlene (1377 days ago)

If it weren't so sick and truthful, it might be funny. Unfortunately, it comes pretty close to the truth with these barbic people.

Guest: LSF (1504 days ago)

If only all the shaheeds would end up like this. And to all you anti Israel libs- this has NOTHING to do with Israeli anything!

Guest: James (1504 days ago)

Lee and Dan have now apologised to VW. What was really going on, though?

Guest: Richiedar (1504 days ago)

It is a shame that people with comun sence make this add.

Guest: sabaoth (1504 days ago)

LOL ROFL gotta love it! no controversy for me, absolutely brilliant.

Guest: Jasper, UK (1504 days ago)

Very amusing. If only more terrorist scum could get what they deserve like that.

I also think they should show this in extremist sections of the middle east, so they know were making comedy out of thier petty tactics.

Guest: Linda (1377 days ago)

This is pathetic, crass commercialism - suicide and terrorism are not funny, appealing, or saleable to sane people.

Latest comment: "These should be issued to ALL MUSLIMS as it will stop their smell from getting out in the open. "

Guest: Christine D (1504 days ago)

I was expecting something really nasty and graphic. So glad that I got something this sly and funny instead. Thanks for the laughs!!!!

Guest: T. Golden (1504 days ago)

This is outrageous!!! Very telling to partner a German product with an Arab suiside bomber. Someone thought this out very carefully. Where is VW's sense!!!
