Purell Eases The Dreaded Public Restroom Ick Factor

It happens on those long road trips with six of your best friends on the way to a river rafting trip in the middle of nowhere. It happens on those long car rides with the family heading to grandma’s house. It happens when you’re in the middle of a six hour drive to visit your girlfriend whom you haven’t seen in a week and can’t wait to jump on top of her the second you see her. It happens when you find yourself on the seedier side of the city. Yes. The dreaded public restroom. Covered in filth. Infested with flies. Dimly lit like a scene out of a horror movie. We’ve all been though the experience of tiptoeing around the restroom taking extra care not to touch anything. For women, there’s the aerial pee position. This commercial for Purell puts you smack in the middle of this nightmare.
