** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygKaZP-ENYw Another variation]] features Brenock O'Connor as Mini Vinnie and is targeted to younger viewers, with a special appearance by Vinnie Jones himself towards the end.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZ8NqKyVqEg Lego version]] of the same ad is both awesome and hilarious.
** Follow-up ads feature Vinnie Jones interviewing people who share their experiences either as the recipient of CPR (I was Vinnie'd), or the giver of CPR (I did a Vinnie), and how their lives were saved / they saved a life. These stories are both heartwarming and inspiring.
