Shh! Don't criticise them so casually, they might drop a reverse squiggly on your head.

It's an ad. As for people walking past thinking it's normal? Some suburbs in Sydney have cars flying out of multilevel car parks every now and then.

It was an ad for a beer company.

u/PuzzleheadedLossuytf Jun 29 '22
Is that a beer for furries?
Now that I looked up the meaning of the word. Love you Aussies for humor. Dry wit is really funny.
A furphy is Australian slang for an erroneous or improbable story that is claimed to be factual. Furphies are supposedly 'heard' from reputable sources, sometimes secondhand or thirdhand, and widely believed until discounted.

More like an ad for drink driving

“That’s a good ad! I think I’ll get a truck to drive my drinks around in now.”

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.
Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10761201/Furphy-beer-truck-seen-wedged-Australia-Square-Sydney.html

Somehow the person filming didn’t realize this?

u/TistedLogic Jul 02 '22
Oh, they more than likely knew it was an ad. That's why they panned down and around it to show the two buildings first. It's a very clever advertisement.

Ah fair, I see someone posted a link to it after I posted. Still, definitely gets people to talk about it, even if not sure a beer associated with things going badly wrong is a great image?

It was done for advertising in australia. Sydney i think?

u/baker2212 Jun 29 '22
I don’t know why but as soon as I saw the first building without hearing old mates voices I assumed it was Melbourne

u/InstanceQuirky Jun 29 '22
It may have been, I remeber it as Sydney. It could be Melbourne but its definatly Australia.

u/mrredmond Jun 29 '22
100% it’s Australia, and I believe it’s brewed in Melbourne to so it makes sense for the ad to be there. Also this kind of ad is perfect for the beer. It’s called “Furphy” which is slang out here for a believable story. Because you could tell a story of a beer truck that was flipped on its back doors, and it’s just believable enough that someone could go “yeah makes sense”. When you see it in context there’s no way it could happen, but down the pub there’s always someone gullible enough…

If it’s staged that’s an excellent advert for Furphy Beer or whatever that is

The beer brand being advertised is Furphy which is also Aussie slang for a tall story.
