Script:
Voitto Koskenvaara an old Finnish inventor has found of how to purify everything hazardous from his home. He can clean foodstuff and newspapers from additives. His strange device can clean really everything. It can also protect from all unhelthy effects like radiation. His message could be: It´s possible to find a solution for all the risks. It´s still possible to find a peaceful place and what´s best, you can still feel that you can rule your world.
Keksijä Voitto Koskenvaara on kehittänyt laitteen, joka puhdistaa hänen kotiympäristönsä. Laite puhdistaa ruoka-aineet lisä-aineista ja sanomalehden vahingollisista aiheista. Ihmeellinen laite ehkäisee myös elektronisten laitteiden säteilyä ja turvaa kodin ydinsäteilyltä. Hänen sanomansa voisi olla: Maailmasta on vielä mahdollista löytää rauhallinen ja turvallinen paikka ja kaikkein parasta: voit vielä tuntea hallitsevasi maailmaasi.
Subtitles for the video:
There’s something in this potato
Let’s see about
these tomatoes…
Additives probably
And this lettuce
There’s less here
These had
quite a lot of additives
Here’s some too
This has additives as well
Nothing.
This is perfectly clean
There are additives
in this loaf of bread
Oh my God!
There must
be a lot in this
Cleaned up, cleaned up
The bread is cleaned up
Cleaned up
Totally clean
All the additives
were completely removed
All these were
cleaned of additives
Except for this one
This has still some left
I put it this close
Still not cleaned up
Only now it is clean
You’re not supposed to eat
it unless you clean it first
I know right away
if there are additives
I can’t eat them
That’s why I have this
plate in the kitchen
It cleans up everything
I can’t read this newspaper
unless I clean it first
This has been
cleaned already
It cleans it permanently
It won’t radiate any more
TV causes a lot of damage
as soon as it’s turned on
This device
prevents all damage
Microwave ovens are terrible
The fallout from the forests
The device catches it
and cleans it up
Everything can be cleaned
up to 500 becquerel
