I love this commercial for 1000 and 1 reasons:

The premise, a mild mannered office worker uses the tried and true “eenie meenie minie moe” tune to pick which of the Mentus UP2U gum flavors he wants to eat. He chooses the minty bubble gum flavor (which P.S. is pretty awesome) when suddenly…up pops the tiger with his toe caught in a trap.

The best part…the tiger never hollers as the famous rhyme requires! Instead he growls a bit at the office worker and asks the obvious: “Do I really need to holler?”

Why I love this commercial? Because of the obvious fact that it’s a tiger face to face with someone. But also because the guy is so calm-yet-scared at the same time! I’m just glad it’s not me! ^_^
