Great Ad

So the following ad has started to appear at my local bus stops, and I think it is brilliant.

The ad is for a shower-soap, and the caption reads: "The cleaner you are, the dirtier its gonna get."

Is that great advertising or what?

I don't need to be able to read that to know I want it! Thanks for the translation though.

I am sure this has been on before - but great advertising....

The poster ad is taken from this commercial: YouTube - ‪Axe Shower Gel- Official "Beach" :30 TV‬‏
