-->'''[[strike:Not]] The Kool-Aid Man'''
From the early 1980s until 2008, Kool-Aid ran a promotional deal with now-defunct toy outlet Kay-Bee Toys known as the Kool Aid Points program. Kids who drank Kool Aid could cut out the point coupons on the back of each product and send them in to trade for merchandise like toys. This 30-minute video was one such possibility.
The video [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin lives up to its name]]; imagine a bunch of Kool-Aid ads placed with public domain footage in a blender set on the highest setting. They include:
** An advertisement for [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it91MHRGiYw Harry's Hedgehog Hideaway]].
** Two [[BigRedButton big red buttons]] on a street corner, one of which will blow up a building.
** A [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PBO7YE7vjE short animation]] based on "The Banana Boat Song" (DAY-O)
** "Going Mental", the first of two 'interactive' games
** A three-parter sketch where a man tries - and fails - to get a newspaper
** The story of "Wilmer", the airplane-hijacking monkey
** Another ad, this time for the fictional "Wacky Wild Workout" video
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9INJYBG7Oo "Thirst Patrol"]]
** "Dog News Tonight", including the second game "Stump the Dog"
** And, lastly, a short [[StopMotion Pixilation]] film about a motorcycle gang and moped club (Formerly known as "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alVmDp0JEJI Vicious Cycles]]")
The video can now be found below at the links below. You can also find out more about the video and the Kool-Aid Points program [[http://projectabsurd.byethost6.com/koolaidvideo.htm here]].

!!Tropes include:
* AmplifiedAnimalAptitude: Wilmer the Monkey supposedly has an advanced understanding of aircraft, so he knows what hijinks he can get away with without intentionally endangering the human pilot
** All of the dogs in "Dog News Tonight" are shown to be auperior to humans; for example, footage of a hangglider with a dog riding on his back is interpreted as a dog hanggliding to save a falling human.
* AnthropomorphicObjects: Numerous in the Kool-Aid commercial material, but the Creator/DomDeLuise short focuses on one, a newspaper dispenser.

* InformedAbility: Wilmer's expertise in modern aircraft and the dogs' abilities in "Dog News Tonight"
* LampshadeHanging: "Thirst Patrol" pokes fun at Kool-Aid Man's willingness to destroy property long before Dane Cook ever did.

** "Boys and girls, I come from the planet '[[LipLock Lip Sync]].'
** The human announcer for "Stump The Dog" is labeled as, "Also from Planet Lip Sync"
* LipLock: Anyone from the planet Lip Sync, but most apparent in the segment "Going Mental;" since the footage from the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8NI5GWczR0 original clip]] (the trailer for ''Film/ItCameFromOuterSpace'') is so short, they repeat the footage multiple times; so much of the dialogue needs to have the same inflections and patterns to match the speaker's hand gestures and lips.
-->'''Original''': I'm sure you'd all like to know something about the new entertainment miracle: 3rd dimension. What it is; what is does.

-->'''First dub''': I'm sure you'd all like to know something about the new entertainment miracle: [[LipLock lip misreading]]. How it works; does it hurt? Well, the best way I can describe it to you is to tell you that [[{{Beat}} ...]]we make our lips absolutely weird and contrived: adverbs; pronouns; adjectives. [[LampshadeHanging So you believe that you can read our lips, even though we are saying something else]].

You can begin just about anywhere; I know just where you'll end up.
* MediumBlending: A rather unorthodox example in the last sketch; it's in live-action, but done in a stop-motion style (the actors are filmed one frame at a time to simulate the illusion of movement).
** A straighter example comes from the Harry's Hedgehog Hideaway ad; the clip is taken from a silent film, and there's a sequence where bullets from a gun are drawn directly onto the celluloid.
* MouthFlaps: Especially prominent whenever Kool-Aid Man is rapping.
* [[TheOtherDarrin The Other Kool-Aid Man]]: Aside from the occasional ''[[{{Catchphrase}} "Oh, Yeah!"]]'', the Kool-Aid Man is voiced by a completely different person.
* ParodyCommercial: Both "Harry's Hedgehog Hideaway" and "Wacky Wild Workout"
* ProductPlacement: For Kool-Aid, it takes up most of the video. For Kay-Bee Toy Stores, however, they're reduced to having their name in the beginning and [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKr9mea9xG8 an ad after the video is done]].
* TheQuietOne: Most of the newspaper sketch is done with no talking, but Dom and a woman get a few lines in at the end. Everyone else is [[TheVoiceless voiceless]].
-->'''Dom:''' ''[Being arrested by police for beating on the newspaper dispenser]]'' No, no; you don't understand! It's out of order!

* SoulBrotha: The guy on the bongos during the Banana Boat song.
* StopMotion: In an unusual example, the last sketch uses Pixillation - the stop-motion animation of live actors - to simulate riding invisible motorcycles and mopeds.
* StuffBlowingUp: Trains collide and cars crash during the rap, and one sketch focuses on the actual destruction of ''an entire building''.
