Hm, strong visual but this is a very risky ad. people could freak out if seeing this.. and this could be a good chance for the tabacco industry to finally sue somebody themselves ;)

MTV did something like this where they compared the number of people killed by AIDS opposed to 9/11 or terrorism. It´s been done, conceptually and executionally.
