Dramatic accident reveals pancake ad from @judysfamilycafe

The video begins by showing three people reacting in horror to a person lying under a car. The camera reveals the 'victim' who then pops up, unharmed, holding a plate of pancakes and offering them to the bystanders. The video then cuts to the group, now smiling, standing in front of 'Judy's Family Cafe,' where the woman introduces herself as Judy and promotes her restaurant's breakfast.
