<p>This bus ad for <a href="http://gizmodo.com/tag/fitness-first/">Fitness First</a> in Rotterdam, The Netherlands gives you the hard sell via shame. It uses a scale in the seat to display just how fat you are to everyone around.</p>
<p>I, for one, would be pretty pissed off if I didn&#8217;t know about this thing and sat down to wait for the bus, only to notice people laughing at my weight. It&#8217;s an attention grabbing ad, to be sure, but one that might just cross the line into ruining the bus stop rather than just <a href="http://gizmodo.com/tag/advertising/">advertising</a> via it. But hey, if it&#8217;s getting people to work out at Fitness First, it&#8217;s effective.</p>
