Angry Whopper teacher and Blackberry


After you watch this video clip, how do you feel?

The video clip showed the teacher destroying a student's blackberry phone because she is very angry when the student kept texting and picked up a call during her lecture. This video clip is very widespread and criticize among people in social network like Facebook (including me). There is 1.6 million views for this video on youtube; that is a large number!

However, two weeks later after this famous video clip was published, there is another video released which disclose the fake situation of the first clip. It is actually a hoax viral internet marketing for Burger King as part of its 'Angry Whopper' campaign that they want to portray the 'angry' to their customer. Although, this campaign is very successful in term of the people paying attention to them, but it turn out that some people even have a negative image of this aggressive fake situation. This is may be because normally Thai people are not really associated with aggressiveness so they turn out to be resist to their action.

However, I think this campaign is somehow has a good insight about their customer. At that time, Blackberry this very pervasive among the Thai people. The video clip is very attractive to them because they also did the same behavior in class (texting). But the aggressive action of the teacher turn to be very surprising for them.
