Axe yourself if that could be tried here - without generating 10 million lawsuits for debilitating mental trauma ... Not really a question

That's not why we can't have nice things. The difference between us and the Belgians comes down to the fact that aside from a few criminal types the Belgians have no natural predators in their habitat. Americans on the other hand openly allow predators to live among us. In fact we subsidize them.
You're damn right a circus like that would cause a few heart attacks and lawsuits in any major American city. Not to mention the loss of several actors who had the misfortune of pointing their play guns at some armed citizen that wasn't playing. -

I'll bet the entire scene was a movie set and everyone in that was a actor or extra- including the gawking "spectators". How do I know? No panic. Apparent gunfire and nobody's running for cover- not even the people directly in the line of fire! The average Belgian faints at the sight of a firearm, much less one being fired. Not even in Belgium could you pull off something like that without getting in a lot of trouble. Very clever, great ad, but totally fake.

I think that it helped that the entire scene was cordoned off and only one person went in at a time. It was obvious that something was going to happen and it was absurd the whole time.
So, I think it was just as it appeared, observers were real, everything else was fake. Very clever.

Guys, guys,
Stop being such a bunch of dowdy fun suckers. Who the hell cares if it was real or not, or if the audience was "staged".
It was a bit of fun for an advertisement. It was clever, it was amusing. It wasn't a conversation on the deep philosophical meaning of life.
Chill a little, and enjoy the moment without getting your 'nads in a knot. You'll live longer and be happier for it. -

I remember that it was in Belgium, about a year ago, that someone lobbed some hand-grenades and started shooting people from an elevated terrace into a public square. Too soon. This one must be staged. I agree that this would never happen in Red America, some Sheepdogs could add some unwanted realism by participating in the fire exchange, nor in blue America for fear of being sued.
