Thai TV commercials
Thai TV is about 40 years behind the rest of the world. They still use "whiz bang" sound effects on the shows. Not just on the comedy sitcom stuff, but even on their serious soap operas. I am going to try and post a few commercials from Youtube, so you can see what I mean. Oh, I am sorry, but I have know idea what the groundhog is selling, and that game you see the guy playing in the last video is called "Ta claw". It's like volleyball, except it's played with a small hard plastic ball and you can't use your hands. It's pretty wild to watch. Please give the videos time to load.
