You must already know about the hot trending and definitely addicting game "Dumb Ways to Die" right? It has an adorable music video along with the game and now FNF Philippines (Friedrich Naumann Foundation Philippines) has made a parody music video available in both English and Tagalog! Check them out here!
"Dumb Ways to Vote" has the same format and same tune of the song to the original video except that it revolves around the Philippine electoral candidates with amusing and quite witty descriptions of the politicians that have won the elections before and their qualifications to run the country. In short; the corrupt, a comedian, a super star or even a murderer. Can you point out which politician fits a description to each character?
"Dumb Ways to Vote" is a public reminder which should be shown to all the citizens that people who are eligible to vote, should vote wisely and intelligently. The next presidential elections will be on May 2016 and the country is already preparing for it, citizens should remember this video during elections to properly screen of their candidates intelligently rather than emotionally.
The description to the video posted in YouTube also states:
"Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.
#IAmNotDumb"
In other words, nobody should be offended by this innocent video. It is humorous, creative, catchy and most importantly true is a dark humor kind of way.
Here is the Tagalog Version with subtitles:
While here is the English Version also with subtitles:
How much history or how updated are you with the country to relate to the video parodies? Did the Friedrich Naumann Foundation Philippines hit every thing right on the spot? Will you think intelligently before you vote next time? Our country deserves to be led by a kind and wise person! Let's make our Philippines and fellow Filipinos proud.
Don't forget the hashtag #IAmNotDumb
Fun Fact!
The actual "Dumb Ways to Die" game was made as a public service announcement campaign by Metro Trains in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia in order to promote rail safety. Ever since the video was released in November 2012, it has been widely shared and views and went viral through different social media platforms. Although the game is supremely popular, it took months to execute a game after the video was uploaded. "Dumb Ways to Die" was introduced in May 2013 as an iOS game app while later that year in September 2013 an Android version was released.
Portrayed in the video are 21 individual characters that are followed through their deaths which are all exceptionally stupid ways of dying. As the campaign focuses on, the three last characters all are killed from from train related situations and how unsafe they acted. We highly suggest this game as an educational and actually brain food kind of game that sharpens your senses and reaction time since you have to be quick in order not to die in the game.
Who thinks these parody videos should be campaigned on TV way more than candidate campaigns?
