This episode of YouTube Friday Five takes a look at the worst Canadian PSA’s from Prevent-it.ca out there. These PSA’s (Public Service Announcements) are so hideous and grotesque that we gave them one full post. So these prevent it guys want Canadians to be more careful at work, so they try to shock some sense into them by showing the most gory sights, and horrid images. Like they don’t show someone slip, but slip and get burned beyond recognition. There is something wrong with Canada if you need to show these kinds of gut-wrenching videos just to get a point across. Anyway, we thought you sickos may enjoy these Canadian PSA videos from YouTube.

WARNING: These videos are grotesque and should not be watched by the faint of heart

5. Funeral with Man Electrocuted PSA

The lamest of the videos on the list, this spot still shows a badly charred man speaking about accidents from his casket. Don’t his fingers remind you of overdone hotdogs?

4. Woman Falls When Hanging Sign PSA

This rather attractive young lady takes a spill then continues to carry on her conversation while clearly being severely damaged in her torso area. I would give her a 8.5 on the fall because the landing was a bit awkward.

3. Man on Forklift Gets Crushed in Factory PSA

This hotshot on a forklift flies around the factory then gets speared harder than a Chuck Cecil hit. Then the ol fellow continues to talk safety to the engaged audience. Starring Randy Quaid, Rated R, Coming to a theater near you soon.

2. Woman Gets Burned By Oil PSA

She will be head chef next year, and about to get married .. until whoops a bloodcurdling scream and a few seconds of gore. This kind of stuff seems like it should never be shown on TV, I mean is this really worse than Janet Jackson flashing a pastie?

1. Man Falls Off Scaffolding PSA

This gets number one due to the extreme attention to detail. Not only does he get blasted, but watch the ending thud. These commercials are sick, but produced so well. Bravo to the ad agency who landed this gig, what a brainstorm meeting that must have been.

Anyway, if you aren’t grossed out enough go check out our beer pong tables, or feel free to browse around some of our other, more sanitary YouTube Friday Five posts.
