    The Old Spice Man commercials are some of the best done, funniest adverts I've seen in years.

    Really?

    The "even apeldoorn bellen" series is so long by now, it's over 20 videos and they're all brilliant.

    one of many:

    These are all amazing.

    Not sure how international this is, but there's a whole series of these ads for Compare the Market

    Lol

    (just google that sentence. they're ads by an insurance company that has done this for like, 10 years. there are dozens and dozens of comedic ads by them )

    To clarify: It means about as much as "you should call apeldoorn", apeldoorn being the city where the insurance company has it's main office.
