Have you ever wondered what shagging Hitler would be like? Me neither. But a German AIDS awareness agency thought it would be an apt metaphor for unprotected sex.
YouTube pulled the video of the ad (self-censorship or something more sinister?), so I can’t link to it – but here’s the official poster.

One Night In Berlin...
Personally, I have no problem with the comparison. In fact, I’m hoping they’ll do more follow-up ads (they’ve already done Stalin and Saddam), maybe with Dubya, Robert Mugabe and the Taliban – who are all notorious for screwing people over.
