Are you intentionally being argumentative?

Before I saw the commercial, the complaints led me to believe a small 
child was blown through a wall. After seeing the commercial live on 
television, that clearly is not so. (Which is my point above.) I don't 
know about you, but most high school students or college aged persons 
are full grown men. I placed the guy in the all important 18-25 
demographic range.

Quit trying to start fights.
