This is a hugely famous coca cola advert – because of the “subliminal” message it carries – look in the bottom right corner, its a picture of a woman giving a blowjob hidden within the ice!
It was released in southern Australia in the 1980s, but had to be called back from over 10,000 retailers in Sydney and the surrounding area when everyone noticed it.
- Coca cola say that it is not a subliminal message, but was left by a disgruntled designer. Ian Brown, Coke’s Sydney based corporate affairs manager claiming they ae the victims
- However some say it was an attempt to get a sexual image into the advert to boost the appeal of the advert and make it more memorable – were they just too sloppy and too obvious, or did they want to get caught and cause controversy?
