Why should ads be boring? Check out this collection of unforgettable advertisements from around the world.
Nissan Cube Advertisement
Break Glass in Case of Adventure.
Nike Cars Advertisement
Cars decorated as Nike kicks in Mexico. The front car carrying the ball.
BMW Advertisement
“From up here, I can see BMW of Bridgeport”
Nescafe Advertisement
This picture of a Nescafe branded building is from Venezuela’s capital, Caracas, and must be among the largest inflatables in the world.
Nike Advertisement
Nestle Advertisement
Creative Nestle billboard advertisement.
Mini Advertisement
Hopi Hari Advertisement
Fitness Company Advertisement
Shopping bags given away to customers when purchasing fitness accessories or nutritional supplements at the Fitness Company fitness centers.
Skin Cancer Towel Advertisement
“Please take care this summer”
K-Swiss Advertisement
McDonald’s Bus Stop Advertisement
Just what you want while waiting for the bus: that mouth watering, tantalizing reminder of how much you’d love to stuff your face with a 1,000 calorie burger only to be reminded later by your stomach it wasn’t the best decision you could have made.
Woodland Shoes Advertisement
Powerful idea for a billboard.
Outdoor Stunt by Goodyear
Lovely concept, but I think there’s something lost in translation in this outdoor campaign for Goodyear. The sign says:
(front) “Your vehicle has been towed. Call 0800 081-8181.”
(back) “For sticking on the roads.”
FedEx Kinko’s Advertisement
When coming up with an ad campaign for FedEx Kinko’s, the innovative minds at advertising agency BBDO were inspired by the streets of New York. The agency installed oversized bottles of correction fluid, highlighters, and, in one case, an office lamp, on the city’s busy thoroughfares for a couple of days earlier this year.
Ravensburger Puzzles Advertisement
BIC Razor Advertisement
Bic developed this creative outdoor advertisement for their razors. The billboard is blank except for a small logo, but without it the advertisement might be missed and it acts as a good backdrop for the giant razor and cut grass. The only draw back is the constant trimming of the lawn.
Mercedes Advertisement
IKEA Advertisement
Ikea on Wheels advertisement.
Canon Advertisement
Creative Canon outdoor advertisement.
Kill Bill Advertisement
LEGO Advertisement
Lego’s ad agency in Santiago (Chile) used cranes to hang giant Lego blocks.
Discovery Channel Advertisement

For the Goodyear one, I think the idea is that your tires will stay on the road no matter what.
Other than that, I wish more advertisers were this creative.

LEGO thing is Photoshpped and not @ all funnny or what. The bloody crane would have to do nothing to be adverting.
This goes for the ravensburger puzzle aswell.
Since construction sites develop over short period of time it’s all futile

Well done. It seems like most of the ads deal with space and scale in a unique way that gets people to look twice. It also seems like the ads would be expensive. Kudos to the designers, the companies, and you for your post. Cheers!

The Discovery Shark is too spooky, can anyone imagine looking up to see a giant shark seemingly floating above them? I’d be terrified.

i saw a neat advertisement in my town where a billboard represented a shooting range bulls eye and giant inflatable bullets lined the bottom as if they were just shot at it!

is it just me or does the Hopi Hari ad have the same two people over and over again…different expressions…different poses…sometimes even a different coloured top…but are they the same two people?
the best thing about all those ads was that I now know that Hopi Hari is a ‘medium sized theme park located in Brazil’ that has it’s own language, medium to small sized rides, overpriced food and a couple of rotating attractions.
shit ad but hey, I live in australia and I wanna fly to Brazil RIGHT NOW!! I guess it worked…

I was in London in 1980’s. I had seen an outdoor ad just outside of a tube station.
I could see a small part of a bold mans head. He had black fies on top of his head.
As I walked up the street I could see his fat face again flies all over his face.
As I reached the top of the street I saw that this was a picture of a politician.
Under the picture something like ” Everyday 500 children are dying in Africa. If everyday 500 politician died they would do something about it.”
Does anyone remember this add? If you have the picture of it please send me.
Thanks.

Goodyear’s sticking on the road means that their tires give your gar a lot of stability.

6 years on and most of these advertisments are still as unforgetable!
Would be good to see an updated version based on the last 6 years.
