Cullman Liquidation
No way this is “real” but it is hilarious. My favorite part is when he randomly starts chainsawing some shit. I think it’s probably some ad agency trying to prove they can do a “viral” video. Well, good job folks. Look, even the still frame is perfectly awesome.
This video is hilarious! You are right, I nearly fell out of my chair when he just started chainsawing at random. Good stuff. Thanks for posting it.
What part of the world are you from that you don’t think the ad could be real?
The people seem real, but the production quality and art direction of it is too good to be truly “local”.
And as it turns out, I was right:

It’s a real commercial for a guy named Robert Lee trying to advertise his business, Cullman Liquidation.
Just because it was created by semi-professionals and has an insincere comedic flair doesn’t make it less real. I agree with you that calling it a “local” commercial would probably be a bit of a stretch.
However, reading your initial thoughts on the commercial just struck me as puzzling as you seemed convinced the whole concept was fabricated. You appear to be a smart, educated man, but maybe a little out of touch?
That’s why “real” was in quotation marks.
It’s real people and a real business, but not a “real” commercial.
If that makes me out of touch, that’s cool. I do sit in front of a computer all day. But hey, I think anonymously posting comments is “out of touch” too.
