Yes, it’s basically a commercial for State Farm…but it’s also William Shatner singing about moist turkeys! There’s fire and explosions, and we just can’t resist watching it over and over again.
In a nutshell, Shatner and State Farm are promoting safe Thanksgivings with this short video, “Eat, Fry, Love: A Cautionary Tale” which dramatizes “an actual accident where the celebrity was burned in a turkey fryer mishap on Thanksgiving.”
According to State Farm, the original video – this is a remix – helped decrease cooking-related fire claims by half last Thanksgiving.
“I love to fry turkey and have been doing it for years but I am not immune to frying accidents,” says Shatner. “People need to remember that hot oil and turkey can be a dangerous combination.”
