Greetings,

I just viewed a particular video on YouTube, that is a commercial for the KFC "Snacker." This commercial is found on YouTube, because the author of the video noticed that a possible subliminal message had been included in the video.

I find this very concerning for two reasons: #1) I thought that this kind of advertising was illegal. #2) It makes you wonder what other messages may be presented to us in various television programs and movies, as well as other commercials.

Please view the KFC Snacker commercial here:

Frightening video with a variety of subliminal messages:

Am I over-reacting? Does anyone else find this concerning?

Quest
 
Sadly I'm not surprised. I've seen subliminal mesages on a cinema- commercial once. Really creeped me out. - And yes, they are illegal, but nowdays that clearly isn't stopping people from doing things...
 
Subliminal messaging in advertising has been happening for years.

I don't think it will ever really stop.
 
The KFC ad:
it's not subliminal messaging, when this came out you could go on the website and get a certificate for a free snacker if you "saw the dollar" lol

The Fox segment is tampered.

The last one is compiled with so many.
I know the disney ones are true, the porn scene in the Rescuers is removed in the DVD release, but can be seen in the VHS release.
Most of these seem to be conincidences, our brain is made to see patterns, if you look at skies, you can start to "see" things.
Faces, known objects, and even words.
