hmmm... to buckle or not to buckle? this ad sure makes me want to buckle up. i mean really, if you think about your car more as a catapult and less as a shield then you might consider that you want to buckle up. i know that technichally "big attention-getting things" arent standard rhetor and logic, but it sure draws quite an audience. this was a great way to get someone thinking along the same lines as you, if you have a big idea and show it. especially if its interesting. like this.

Wow! Nice Post.. If we as people take the time to slow down and actually realize how easy it is to just remember to Buukle up.. We would mot only save our lives, but the people next to us
This poster made me laugh. Their are a lot of this types of posters in Hollywood. The way the designer thought of the backseat as catapult instead of a barrier and as the least potential place to get hurt he made you think that even in the back the risks are high so "buckle up". It was cleverly designed.
i like how this ad has some sort of design that will grab your attention! it speaks out and really proves a point that if you dont wear a seatbelt in the back you'll fly into the front! its scary to think that by just not remembering to buckle up...it could cost you your life!
Ha! i actually think this was a really good way to display the point of not buckling up unsafe. As you sit in the back i think you get a bit more laid back on not using your seat belt, but this makes me wanna re-think the safety of it. The huge slingshot really makes a bold statement like most big things. And it really shows the ignorance that we show towards not wearing our seat belts.
lol i like the way this ad shows that the back seat could be as dangerous as the front seats, by showing that you can fly off the back seat and risk your life, if you don't put on your seat belts...
This poster uses humor and a little bit of fear to get it's message across. It is also interesting that it applies to driving and is a billboard, which targets mainly drivers. This mass advertising is an execllent way to get a message across, especially when all who are going to see it is your audience.
I agree with Latrice, nice post Austin.
I defineitely view this as an example of epiphany. The sculputure itself is so massive that it sets off a brutally honest tone that captures viewers attention.
When I first saw the slingshot, I immediately thought of a little kid running around the house, shooting stuff with it. This could be an example of pathos because the safety of their children is very important to the parents.
I totally agree with that poster! That's a pretty clever way to pretary his idea. I think everyone of any age should have to buckle up in all seats at all times when in a car. I know they say adults don't "have" to wear a seatbelt, but why not?? You don't care if they die since they are older? What's the difference? Hopefully this poster will make people stop and think about the fact that a simple click could save their or a loved ones life.
This poster could be an example of pathos, because it made me stop and think about what if that was someone I knew that could be sling-shotted out of a back seat? It captures viewers emotions and make me think about their own lives in the situation.
the author uses an amusing sculpture to showcase a serious subject. The poster implies that those sitting in the backseat hold a misconception that it is safer than the front and therefore don't need to wear a seatbelt. The combo provides a strong argument for wearing a seatbelt all the time.
This add is effective because of its use of pathos. First it uses a humerous overall look to grab your attention and then as you read it, scares you so that you wont forget to wear you seatbelt.
