Did you remember to “Spring Forward” this past weekend?  If you forgot, you are probably running a little late or showing up late for work today.  Daylight Savings Time has been a small controversy for years with groups, from time to time, wanting to do away with it.

In the spirit of “having a little fun with the idea” but also with building up their own business and getting those people who are serious about changing the rule for public health sake, casket company Titan Casket put out an ad and also started a website for people who may want to write their congressional representative about a change.

It’s also a little “edgy” way for a “Direct-to-Consumer” casket company to reach those consumers who may not yet know that caskets can be bought direct and do not have to be bought through funeral homes.

Here’s what Titan Casket said about the ad, “Titan Casket, in collaboration with Ryan Reynolds’ Maximum Effort, is debuting a new, potentially lifesaving, campaign starring award-winning actor David Dastmalchian. Historically, hospitals see a 24% increase in heart attacks (British Medical Journal) and a 6% increase in fatal accidents (University of Colorado Boulder – Current Biology) each year timed to Daylight Savings. Titan Casket has an interest in people dying, but even they think this is ridiculous and have created a new spot to encourage people to “Bury Daylight Savings“.

Here’s the ad that was put out as re-tweeted by actor Ryan Reynolds and here is the website people who are serious about changing Daylight Savings Time can access to learn more about how to change the law.

Titan Casket is a Direct-to-Consumer casket company that also works with funeral homes to be their supplier of casket merchandise.  If you are interested in working with Titan Casket at your funeral home click here to learn about their funeral home their wholesale program.
