Diet Coke advert

Does this annoy anyone else? The advert has a tortoise sitting on the photocopier with a can of coke on his back. When the copies come out of the machine they are taken from the side of the tortoise not underneath the tortoise as would be the case.
Why was that not thought through?

I noticed that too but I gather the tortoise insisted on having a clause in his contract which forbids embarrassing images.......

I'm waiting for the ad where someone takes a drink from the tortoise's can, but also lifts the tortoise up when taking a drink. The can does appear to be glued on it's back.

Perhaps the original edit showed the tortoise's 'parts' and the client got nervous, fearing a craze sweeping the nation's playgrounds for photocopying tortoise's willies.

I love the Tortoise, with his zany infectious love of life philosophy! I think everyone should be more like that. I've bought diet Coke because of it...the idea is so clever and hilarious. Has anyone seen any more of him?
