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

These are videos highlighting the subliminal suggestions which have been used in the media. If you search for "subliminal adverts" on youtube you see hundereds of videos that people have made.

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 thinking function like an obvious suggestion would – you don't argue against the suggestion at all. Subliminal messages go straight into your mind without any resistance from your critical mind and will begin to change your beliefs and thoughts.

subliminal messages are being used by everyone from McDonalds to local resaurants, and their continued use only brings more evidence to ability to influence us.

One of the most famous recent examples is from MdDonalds when they were busted for using subliminal adverts 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.
