'Just wondering if someone could help me find/ID a commercial I was thinking about. From about the last…ten years, or so. I can’t even remember for certain what company it was for—I think maybe a Credit Card. Anyway, it goes something like…
First scene, a group of marketing or sales people in an office somewhere, brainstorming for potential rewards to give loyal customers.
One of them brightly suggests giving away a trip to Mt. Everest, and we see a closeup of one of the colleagues as he considers it…
…cut to an “imagine” shot of three people collapsed on a rocky, snowy backdrop, all covered with frost and icicles, wind howling. The one on the right struggles to look at the climber in the middle of the band.
The camera cuts to a closeup of that man’s face. Frozen solid, in a motionless wail, and very obviously dead.
Back at the office, the marketeer decides that, uh, maybe they should just give away money. The others agree.
Alas, for the life of me, I can’t even remember the company that that charmingly ghoulish ad was made for. Can anyone help?
