Water Safety New Zealand and the New Zealand Coast Guard worked together to present a water safety message featuring a young girl and her toys. The ad shows the schoolgirl entering her brother’s messy room to discover that her brother has decapitated her doll. It’s time for revenge! She grabs Action Man off the shelf and heads to the bathroom to flush him down the toilet. She flushes once, twice, three times, four times, but he’s still there, saved by his lifejacket. “Always wear a lifejacket”.
