I first heard this about 3 years ago but don't know who originally created it. Anyone know?

JoeyDeacon

I don't know but every time I see that advert (usually twice in one ad break) I want to kick the TV in.

Are there honestly people who have this on their phone and think it's funny?

Heard a dance track on Radio 1 this morning compiled from that ringtone.. Sheesh.. It was funny when it was dubbed over the top of Schumacher's Ferrari about 3 years ago.. Where the hell did the frog thing come from??

Trashman

Google "insanity test" - that was were I remember it first from and as above with pic of MS's Ferrari. And must be 2 or 3 years ago I first got it on email....and don't forget "Hamster Dance" is on its way - and that's even older.

I share that same feeling I hate it and can't understand anyone actually paying for that.

Come on then who has that as their ringtone??????

davegtt

HATE IT!!!! would have been OK if all the people who think its funny knew it exsisted years ago. when I heard it everyone was giggling at it and I was thinking fek me, it made me smile about 3 years ago on some obscure web site. get with the times people

I detest that crazy frog !!

And yep it's from that ferrari thing, i think it came around as something like " I bet you can't watch this without laughing"

Dream Weaver

The it came out with the sound of the Ferrari F1 car, and the frog thing was supposed to be the new Indian F1 team

I remember the original insanity test one. It was amusing. This is a VERY overplayed (i mean come on, even once a break would be enough), ripoff. I bet the person who made the original got ****all.


I know someone on this board that has the tone!!! He shamelessly turned up at a recent worcs meet with it on.. Kept the kids amused but made us wanna chuck his phone in the carvery!

Heard the dance version this morning, a lot better.

Yeah...MTV Germany have been showing almost every 2nd advert (previous ad being a ringtone ad)

I should complain to the ITC about the frog showing it's genitalia and get it pulled off air

Did a search on DANIEL MALMEDAHL and found
that he he didn't actually make that sound as a joke at first, but as a serious attempt to imitate the 2-stroke engine of a moped of his.

I just hope he is getting some of the money Jamba must be making from the ringtone.

Anyone else feel like this?

MarkCSC

Oh also found this

Death of the Frog

SiDHEaD

Would have been better if he hadnt even managed to get it "started" before getting splatted!

Spoon

I read this week that the guy who actually sold it to Jamba wasn't responsible for creating the original.

The original was received through an email from a fellow countryman and was then adapted by the guy who has got the recognition for it. It's name was the "Annoying Thing" or something similar, and then Jamba marketed it as "Crazy frog".

To date it has grossed £10 million according to where I read it, which escapes me for now.

Shaolin

Sure i read somewhere that he has made millions out of this.

Shaolin

oops, Spoon beat me to it.

the original guy only made £10,000 from it apparantly.. was in the sun, and had the history of it..

Must be true then
