If you have been surfing youtube lately you must of noticed some of the Youtube subliminal messages.

These are videos people have made at home highlighting the subliminal suggestions which have been used in a movie, or a tv show, a song, advert, you name it. If you do a search for subliminal messages on youtube then you are inundated with 1000s videos of this kind.

Subliminal messages are all around us, but now people ar sharing them when they find them with help from the viral power of youtube.

Subliminals are only very slight suggestions which go into your mind un-noticed. i.e. they set off your critical defenses like an obvious suggestion would – you don't argue against it, you don't even notice. Subliminal messages go into your mind without resistance and slowly start to change your physical behavior.

Due to their power to influence us subliminal messages are being used by everyone – from McDonalds to politicians, and their continued use only ads more evidence to their power.

A really famous popular example is when McDonalds were busted for using subliminal advertising on the food network. During the Iron Chef program a flash of the McDonalds logo is seen for just 1/10^th of a second.

Through youtube this subliminal advert got major international attention despite the video being filmed on a camcorder in someone's house from a clip he recorded on TV.

McDonalds denied it all straight away and said it was the food network's doing. But obviously the food network in turn denied everything too.

Now that we all have regular access to the internet and anyone can upload a video online we can increase the awareness of the subliminal messages which are being used iby advertisers to manipulate us – this practice is US, the UK, and Australia but advertisers are still trying to sneak them in. Only when we make a massive stand against this practice will the advertisers get a bad reputation and take note.
