FAMOUS LUNGS IN A GREAT BIG WORLD

HOLLYWOOD STUNTIN’ WITH THE ROCK” LUNGS :30

INTRO: Little Lungs in a great big world! The story of a pair of lungs

that smoked as a teen and never grew to normal size.

Open on Little Lungs and a lung version of The Rock on top of a speeding

subway car that’s on fire.

THE ROCK: Alright, L.L., you ready for your first big-time Hollywood

stunt?

LITTLE LUNGS: Heck, yeah!

They start running across the top of the train. They jump from one flaming

train car to another. Then one more. Little Lungs starts to fall behind.

LITTLE LUNGS: My stunted lungs… can’t handle the stunt!

The Rock jumps again. Little Lungs follows, but doesn’t make it. At the

last second, The Rock grabs Little Lungs’ hand, saving him.

LITTLE LUNGS: Whew! That was close!

He’s clotheslined by a traffic light wire,knocking him onto the tracks,

where he’s run over by train car after train car.

AVO: Smoking as a teen can stunt your lungs, keeping them little

forever.

Cut back to The Rock at the back of the train.

THE ROCK: NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

















POSSESSED BY NICOTINE

Open on a TEENAGE GIRL in a high school class. She looks at the clock, then

back at the teacher.

Suddenly, she leaves her seat as if being pulled sideways by an unseen force.

Her classmates are surprised. She slowly bends over backwards.

SFX: back bones cracking

Once her hands reach the floor behind her, she spider walks down the aisle,

like Linda Blair in The Exorcist. Her classmates recoil in fear.

She leaves the classroom and continues to spider walk into the girl’s

restroom. She stands.

SFX: bones cracking

She abruptly takes her cigarettes out of her hoodie pocket.

AVO: Once nicotine takes over your mind, your body soon follows.

SUPER: Are you possessed by nicotine?























MACROSCOPIC METAL

Video

We open on a young man as he pulls his vape away from his mouth.

He then exhales, but instead of blowing a white cloud of vapor,

he blows a “cloud” of metal fragments and barbs into the air.

Some are shiny. Others are rusty. And while they vary in shape,

they’re all sharp.

We see a female student in the school bathroom. She exhales

after vaping, blowing shards of metal into the air.

VO: There’s a lot more to vapes than vapor.

We see a teen sneaking a hit in class. He has a vape in his hand

as he blows metals pieces straight out of his mouth.

VO: You could be inhaling toxic metals, like lead and nickel,

right into your lungs.

He begins to cough.

CARD: Know the Real Cost.




















SCARY ENOUGH

Video

OPEN ON A MAN WALKING DOWN A DIMLY LIT HALLWAY, SHOWING US VARIOUS HORRORS

ALONG THE WAY.

THE FIRST IS A SERIES OF GRITTY METALLIC ROBOTS. THEY ARE SHARP, SOMEWHAT

RUSTED AND WORN, AND DECIDEDLY SCARY & MEAN LOOKING. THEY LUNGE AT US. THE MAN

IS UNPHASED AS HE CONTINUES WALKING.

MAN: To show how terrifying it is that when you vape you may be inhaling

toxic metals straight into your lungs, we considered using metal monsters

as a metaphor.

WE COME ACROSS A TEAM OF COMPUTER DESIGNERS. ON THE SCREEN IS AN IMPRESSIVE

DISPLAY OF CGI.

And cutting-edge special effects, so you can see the particles of

lead going into your lungs.

WE HEAR VIOLINS AS WE HAPPEN UPON AN ORCHESTRAL SECTION. THEY ARE PRACTICING

THE KIND OF MUSIC YOU WOULD FIND IN THE BUILD TO THE CLIMAX OF A REALLY GOOD

HORROR MOVIE.

The music woulda made your heart race.

But the truth is, nothing is as scary as the truth.

AS WE ENTER THE MIDDLE OF THE ROOM, A VAPE PEN IS DELICATELY PLACED ON A

PEDESTAL.

That vaping can deliver toxic metal particles — like nickel, tin,

aluminum, lead — directly into your lungs.

HE PICKS UP THE VAPE PEN.

Metal in your lungs. Bwahahahaha—

The surgeon says, “These? This is what I use on patients that get mouth cancer from dipping.”

The teen says, “Mouth cancer?”

The surgeon says, “Yep, dip contains up to 30 cancer-causing chemicals. Do you want to know more about the process?”

We see the surgeon explaining the procedure in detail to the terrified teens. He says things like “I use this screw to hold down your jaw,” “this is a new bone plate,” and “this is the feeding tube that will feed you for the first two weeks.

NARRATOR: The teens are shocked and terrified. Some of them even walk away, not wanting to hear any more.

The surgeon says, “What, you’re not the do-it-yourself type?
