Car Crash Caught in Reverse For Danish Road Safety Council

danish_car_crash.jpg

AdPunch points us to a commercial for the Danish Road Safety Council from last year which replays backwards what seems to be a real accident. Everything from the flying glass, exploding airbag and facial expressions are caught as the women in the accident narrates the commercial wishing she’d driven a bit slower, could turn back time and apologizes to the apparent death of a young couple she caused. Powerful stuff.

There’s an even more shocking version of the campaign here (on DailyMotion which is like the world’s slowest video site, unfortunately) in which a man hits a boy on a bike and he ends up going through the windshield. The campaign was created by Locomotion in Denmark. We’d love to know how this campaign was shot and if, in fact, these are actual accidents shot backwards.
