well, whats really goin on? That is one of the weirdest commercials ive ever seen. what about a bunch of birds chirping in unison makes you want a mint? and whats the deal with the parrot in the middle? i cannot figure out what hes trying to say, also ive noticed that the commercial only airs late at night in my area, after 11pm

I love that "Mentos Bird Commercial". Where can I go to see it? I have to show it to my coworkers. Nobody beleives me that it exist. I will prove that it's out there. Please e-mail me if you know where I can find it.

If you know where I can view the Mentos Bird commercial online, email me too. Thanks!

Nope. I have no idea, myself. I just get the search hits as if I did.

i found it :)
but forum won'tlet me post URL

home comcast net/~squeekie23/mentos.mov

insert dots (.) between home and comcast and net

The birds are actually chirping a song by a Dutch band. The song is "No Limit" by the band "2 Unlimited"

I think the commercial is very cool, and would like a URL where I can view/download it

I found a site that has a link to the commercial.
Also, the cd is really cheap on half.com

The parrot says "There's No Limit"
I could only figure this out after finding out that the song is called "No Limit" by some dutch band

You know, I've never actually seen this commercial...

...but when I do, I'll be ready! [grin]

i love that commercial! i laugh every time i see it

My pet bird goes nuts everytime this commercial comes on. She loves it!

Where can I hear at least a sample of this song like you can on band web sites?

I FREAKEN LOVE THE COMMERCIAL

I LOVE this commercial too.
Here's the link -

Does anyone know where I can download it to my PC from? This link does not let you download it (as far as I can tell), just view it.

I love the commercial, too! It always gets my attention and makes me laugh. Most people don't remember seeing the woman in the commercial--but she has an interesting expression and adds to the oddness of the advertisement.

The parrot, which appears at the end of the commercial, says "There's no sugar" -- as the ad is for the sugarless Mentos (in response to the "matt j" posting on 5/30/05).

P.S. The original "No Limit" is a great song to dance to!

I had to post a second comment after having viewed the version of the commercial that it on the site posted by "DDW" on 8/21/05.
The parrot is in the "middle" of the commercial in this version and does say "There's no limit," just like the original song. The version that has been showing in the Philadelphia region is shortened and has the parrot appearing at the end, saying "There's no sugar." Apparently there are full-length and shortened versions--and the parrot's line is different for the sugarless mint ad.
