The folks over at Ogilvy London put this little ditty together to give outsiders a glimpse into a life in advertising. Go ahead. Watch it.

Now here’s the big question. If your young self saw this back when you were considering advertising as a viable career option would this pique your interest or send you bolting away in a fit of panic? The jury is still out for me, but I get the sense that I at least would have given more thought to my back-up career choice of dentistry.

If you’re reading this and have never tried Dr. Bronner’s “Magical” Hemp Peppermint Pure-Castille Soap I’m here to tell you that you’re missing out. Big Time. That tingly peppermint silky lather ranks up there as one of the best all-natural sensations known to mankind, best described as 1,000 baby angles all breathing on your skin at the same time.

The product itself is a wonder, but perhaps even more impressive is the fact that the brand has stayed true to itself and its ideals despite mass distribution in stores like Target and Whole Foods. From the web site to the packaging everything has remained exactly the same.

I did some research on Dr. Bronner only to discover that he’s pretty damn close to being what most people would consider clinically crazy. That assumption may bear some truth as he was at one point admitted into an insane asylum only to eventually escape to California to continue his life’s mission.

His is such a mind-blowing story that documentary filmmaker Sara Lamm created a film about his life. It’s been said by critics that it “out-weirds fiction.” Can’t wait to see it.

Here’s the trailer. (Sorry Embedding was disabled here, but it’s worth the click through)

Challenge of the day: Count all the levels on which this can be described as “so wrong.”
