[Coke](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coca-cola-y3000-zero-sugar) put on a wild campaign in Brazil to promote [Coke Zero](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/enjoy-the-moment-with-a-cocacola), but getting people to pierce their tongues with the [Coca-Cola](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sampling-billboard) brand is a little bit much for the rest of the world.

Instead, this [TV spot](http://www.adgabber.com/video/video/show?id=546804%3AVideo%3A83154) is a little quirky, but it'll grab your attention when channel surfing. We featured it last week, but it was in Portuguese, so we thought we'd fling you the update, this time in English. It features a French, blue eyeball with spindly legs, a Californian finger which wants to know what the drink is but is bummed to find out the label isn't in braille, and two immature English tongues.

It's bizarre... just watch it! It's incredible to think how much money they invest in spots like this.
