3 views · September 19th, 2026
A group of extraterrestrials from the planet Zeta arrives on Earth after observing the destructive habit of smoking among humans. Recognizing that their own civilization was nearly eradicated by the same addiction eons ago, the aliens decide to intervene. They abduct several unsuspecting Earthlings—including a teacher, a mother, a student, a mayor, and a cowboy—to show them "memory tapes" of their history. Through these tapes, the aliens demonstrate how their society fell into ruin due to widespread cigarette use, leading to horrific diseases, futile attempts to find "safe" cigarettes, and eventual catastrophe. Despite the stark warnings and the terrifying evidence presented, the Earthlings remain skeptical and hesitant to quit. The film concludes with the aliens departing for space, leaving the humans behind to ponder their own fate and whether they will heed the warning before it is too late. ### Keywords smoking, health education, public health, anti-smoking, extraterrestrials, addiction, animated short, public service announcement, disease prevention, cautionary tale

It emphasizes practical habits, such as walking on the left side of the road, using crosswalks, wearing light-colored clothing at night for visibility, and avoiding hidden dangers like driveways or blind spots created by parked vehicles.

2 views · September 16th, 2026
This film explores the transformative journey of an arthritis patient named Mr. Roberts, who moves from a state of passive, frustrated isolation to becoming an empowered, active participant in his own medical care. Initially, Roberts adheres to the "good patient" stereotype—withholding concerns, lying about his compliance with exercise regimens, and fearing that his physicians view him as a burden. He reflects on his past struggles with medical appointments, where the lack of communication led to feelings of helplessness and despair. The narrative illustrates a pivotal shift when he adopts a new approach: honesty, preparation, and open dialogue. By maintaining a list of questions, communicating his physical limitations, and engaging his doctor as a partner rather than an authority to be appeased, Roberts learns to manage his condition effectively. The story emphasizes that successful long-term care for chronic illness relies on the patient’s willingness to be vulnerable and assertive, ultimately restoring their quality of life and social connection.

Email us at footage@avgeeks.com if you have questions about the footage and are interested in using it in your project. A Navy training film warning sailors and Marines that infectious hepatitis (hepatitis A) is the souvenir they don't want from overseas duty. Through a jaundiced sailor who ate raw mussels, it covers symptoms, the weeks-long recovery that costs the Navy a cruiser's worth of manpower each year, and fecal-oral transmission via shellfish from sewage-polluted water, produce fertilized with "night soil," and food handlers who skip washing up. The rest is prevention: stick to reputable restaurants, eat only well-cooked food, skip raw salads, ice, and local dairy, and soak produce in a bleach solution. Closing line: you risk your liver, not your life — but you'll feel half alive for a long time.
