- Billy Mays debuted in 2-minute infomercials with this incredible OxiClean ad in 2000. It catapulted him into stardom and into our hears. At age 50, he passed away on June 28, 2009. We'll miss you Billy.
- Zábava
the fact that anyone would search for a 2000's era cleaning supply infomercial spokesperson in 2023 elaborates the greatness of billy mays. he packed so much entertainment into such an ordinary thing. legend.
Swear lol. Not to mention it came on every 20 seconds for 20 years.
*2024 (; bahaha Mr. Mays will never be forgotten.
The best part of your post is I'm using this commercial for a college class for ads and who better to use them the man, the myth, and the legend Billy mays
"It'll make your whites whiter. It'll make your brights brighter."
Great writing.
It is. People dont want confusing complex words. Most people like hearing everyday words that state the obvious. Nobody likes to feel dumb after watching an ad so normally you dumb it down so it contain the most simple words available.
exquisite poetry
CZcams: "It makes your whites whiter. It makes your brights brighter."
CNN: Racist!
there wasn't anything grammatically or logically incorrect with what he said. he's saying you'll make your white clothes whiter and bright clothes brighter. I don't get what's wrong with that statement?
They need a woke oxi clean that is just squid ink to remove all the filth from your whites.
As a four year old, I remember loving these commercials....
Umm.. .. this was 10 year before you where even born
Tom Jones I'm 14 now. i meant when I was four.
I remember the 2005-2009 ads. I thought these products where cool and begged my parents to order them XD
Cuppedcat yeah. Glory years. The best years for the internet as well...now everything’s downhill
@@Cuppedcat You are now 20 years old
My dad will never be forgotten
OxiClean i saw your dad
Rimjob Inventor yea
i miss you son
OxiClean I'm sorry for your lost oxy
He is a legend
This guy is the only reason why I would look forward to commercials.
Forreal this man made us happy just to watch him talk about cleaning product 🤣
"Billy mays here!"
Yep. He managed to make the simplest things fun.
But wait there's more!
+Pink Guy Call in the next 360 seconds and I'll QUADRUPLE the offer!
Just call this number!: 1337

It's not there anymore ;-;
But since the end of the 2000's there will be no more R. I. P Billy
Danny he was a great person and made a great product and now he is dead :(
Billy please come back and oxi clean out Jacob Sartorius
please do man
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM by oxi clean you mean drown him in battery acid
ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM he died
Ill revive him for u
BrokenScreenPro3 lol
It's kinda weird hearing him talk normally, he's a lot louder in later commercials
The only other time he wasn't yelling was in his ad for the Ding King
He was just getting started at this point, he was still sort of method-searching
Cocaine
Sad Hoshi exactly
@@rickenman9844 Yeah him shouting became his thing later on. It's like how Matthew Lesko didn't originally start out as "the question mark guy," even though he was doing "free money to [insert subject here]" books since the 80s.
Never thought I'd watch an old commercial about a cleaning agent to feel warm again
Same. Just came here from a Vince Offer binge, Slap Chop, Sham Wow, etc. Good stuff, indelibly stamped in memory.
I loved his energy. Too bad he's no longer powered by the air we breathe :(
He was my 2d cousin (not by blood) I never got to meet him tho :(
Makes me glad people are still talking about Billy 13+ years after his death, I feel like he deserves it
He was powered by cocaine lol
@@nigelnitwittits9645 And amphetamines. 😁
@@nigelnitwittits9645 eh we all wish to have a lot more energy
R.I.P. Billy Mays, you were a great TV salesman. God rest your soul and you'll be missed forever. 😢😢
Suckers like you eat up a crack head like this guy,
Probably the only "As seen on TV" product that actually works. The stuff actually is magic or something.
David Betz what about the slap chop and flex seal
Flex seal, oxi clean, slap chop, crank chop, *shamwow*
The only one that I've found so far besides this one is a special pipe you can heat water with - it saves so much cash and the water is cleaner and you conserve water :o Totally worth the 50 dollars investment and this ... this cleans everything. It's magic I swear!
The shamwow was pretty damn good as well.
Not really, its basically the same as Clorox 2. It works but its nothing magical
His energy, his wholesomeness, his charisma, and the fact OxiClean is an actually a good cleaner is the cherry on top. I wish this kind of commercial came back…
Billy Mayes
Cleaning shit stains in heaven. RIP
We need him now to clean the shit stains here on Earth.
aww i just found out he died :c
Stop
Wait he’s dead?
That comment made me laugh out loud
Q: Why are all the angels in heaven dressed in perfect white?
A: Because Billy Mays & OxiClean are there.
theres that part that says - Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's. clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. um hes in hell if you believe in all that, feel its just evolution of snake oil salesmen who used to put opium in everything, shits gotta work to some extend, but at what point are you re packing preexisting stuff for more than its worth? me - exchanging beneficial info to idiots who dont know any better, and making them pay more, very angelic , as i said if u believe in all that, bad guys tend to do better tbh, not sure following the bible would lead to you being victorious, with the interpretations most have good and evil, vs people to look out for aka competition / threats, and people you can feel safe around aka the ones who aint competition be it a ally or a food, you love billy mays , he is funny meme worthy i guess, but to be sucked in by people like him, you are a food, doubt your a ally and shill of his, sorry if you are and i assumed youre a food, but sounds very food like. moo
This man holds a special place in my heart.
Quick n brite
Best commercial ever.
May this great man rest in peace. You will be missed by so many.
Yes he will.
@@mitchellcox1912 this was 13 years ago this person might be dead. im not being rude im just like telling ya lol
@@mitchellcox1912 but like yea i agree with yall

Dang, Billy’s honestly so good at advertising, I actually want to buy some OxiClean now.
You could have bought this for your kids during Christmas and I bet they would have been excited af. Thats how good this man was.
I wonder if this offer is still valid
Of course! Send your money in the next 15 minutes, though!

You should still find this item in stores.
Hi Mr president

The Jesus Christ or Walt Disney of cleaning products,
Still thinking about you in 2020 Billy. One of the greatest pitchman to ever live.
Wish i was a fan before he died, oh well i'm just a kid.
It’s 2018 and I’m analysing this comercial for school... life’s great...
Literally doing the same thing now loooooool
I’m doing it right now
2021 and I’m doing the same lol
I usually do not like salesman, but he's good at what he does. He doesn't come off like a DB yet sells the product beautify. RIP Billy Mays.
This was my first Commercial seen by him. Never missed another one.
RIP Billy
And thus, a TV legend was born. We'll miss you, Billy Mays.
Billy Mays was just awesome! 11 years gone and he is not forgotten. God bless
this guy fascinated the hell out of me when I was a kid. always so fun to watch
I remembered him being Australian and very loud when I was a kid
Same
what?
That was a different guy, but Billy Mays was also really loud, but not Australian.
Monkeyboy 0129 I first saw this commercial on March 12, 2001 during Marilyn Milian's debut in The People's Court on WNBC channel 4 my local NBC station. I was 2 years old.
Ur thinking of anthony Sullivan
Even 2000 Billy Mays makes me want to buy from him.
I hated seeing him at every. single. commercial break back then but boy do I miss seeing him now.
I kind of enjoyed him because his voice would save me from any bad Spongebob episode that was playing.
Billy Mays was a funny guy and he had lived his life. someday there would be another billy mays
Woke Is-land there is and his name is Phil swift
@@UltraZombie115 Phil should run for mayor next election in CWCville
I literally still use Oxi-Clean today because of my man Billy! Sleepless nights with NOTHING on tv, I used to get sooooo hype when I heard my boy say “Hi! Billy Mays here..”!!! I’d be like “YES!!! OXYCLEANNNNNN!!!! 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣 Definitely not going to sleep anytime soon now 😂🙏🏾
Legend has it, when he walked up to the pearly gates and god asked "why do you think you should be in Heaven?"
So billy began his pitch
"Hi im Billy Mays!"
Moments later he walked through the gates..... and god walked away with a tub of oxiclean, spray bottle and shammy...
And It was safe to swim in.
2022 and i still cant forget you😢
Rip Billy Mays
It was actually just cocaine all along
Shelby Hester so cocaine cleans my clothes
exposed
Shut up bitch
Fuck Up
im watching this on acid.
RIP Billy Mays.
commercials will never be the same.
commericals on tv aren't the same anymore without him
Billy May's was one of the best commercial guys as a kid
can't believe we had technology like this back in the day, miss you Billy

Sara Koester I'm back from the dead!!!!
Omg 😱😱😱😱😱 Billy Mays
Sara Koester You've better believe it!! I used Revtalyze to bring myself back from the dead. It was apparently from some form of pollution. Because of it, I am now alive!!! Use the Magic of Revitalyze on any dead corpse!!! _EVEN GEORGE WASHINGTON!!!_ Try it today!!!
As a kid I remember watching these late at night on tv ❤
I loved watching him in these commercials, but after his death the new guys in the OxiClean commercials just didn’t feel the same without Billy Mays
Same, when I was a kid I always loved his commercials that my dad would get annoyed because I’d turn up the volume.
Notice how he says "the air you breathe" but then goes onto say "the water you and I drink"
Its official, Billy Mays doesn't need to breathe to survive.
It's hard to overstate how clean his delivery is at that timing and pacing.
nose candy
he used to look so old to me when this aired.....now, he looks very young to me
I think it's pretty fair to say that this was the greatest infomercial ever, and revolutionized the way they where presented thereafter.
The instructions for Oxiclean
General cleaning: 1 fluid ounce of Oxiclean per gallon of water
Extra strong cleaning: 1 cup of Oxiclean per gallon of water
Jewelry and denture cleaning: 1 tablespoon of Oxiclean per gallon of water
Soaking solution: 1 gill of Oxiclean per gallon of water
Light cleaning: 1/2 gill of Oxiclean per gallon of water
Laundry: 1 fluid ounce of Oxiclean per load of laundry
Note: 1 gill is equal to 1/2 cup, 1/2 gill is equal to 1/4 cup
Matty Moo oxiclean isn't for drinking. It's for cleaning.
I miss seeing him on TV !
This I nostalgic for me. I remember watching these commercials as a kid. I always thought it was a magic trick and the product didn’t really work, but Mr. Mays made the commercial enjoyable. As a 25 year old adult, I now use oxiclean and it works wonders!
RIP Billy Mays. Best advertising pitchman ever.
RIP
OxiClean Stain Remover rip
Man I miss Seeing this guy on Late night TV Commercials.... R.I.P Billy Mays
Legends never die
I remember seeing him and Anthony Sullivan on tv advertising oxi clean all the time.
I'll miss him, Billy Mays was a good guy, he inspires me in the world of sales, Greetings from Baja California Mexico
RIP FOREVER BILLY MAYS
Rest in peace, Mr. Mays.
Only OGs remember this.
I always wanted everything that Billy Mays advertised.
Billy Mays & Ron Popeil...miss them both. Ron especially at Christmas. It wasn't Christmas time until you saw all those Ronco commercials. My favorite....Ronco Bottle & Jar Cutter, makes drinking glasses.
Billy mays, you will always be remembered. R.I.P
RIP Billy Mays
Also, this is one of the few, but rare occasions where Billy does not yell or shout.
This is actually the first OXI Clean Commercial he was ever in. So it wasn’t his signature yet.
Never thought skipping the AP English exam and just retaking English 101 in college would entail me writing a six page paper about this advertisement, but here I am.
Billy Mays was a legend. RIP to a true boss 🫡
Billy is the G.O.A.T
R.I.P
So many years and I still watch this on CZcams
I just randomly remembered this man.. out of nowhere. Who else?
he was so damn quiet
Oxiclean: Stain Specialist
Billy Mays: Finger-pointing specialist
The only commercials I DON'T want to skip
One of the BEST pitchman EVER! Still watching in 2024! Products amazing!
"Please allow 28 days per delivery "
WTF
When you see it
Yeah, that wouldn't fly now lol
I finally used this stuff. Hot water and a scoop with a white shirt that was covered in yellow stain for years.....wow. This shit actually works....
The picture quality is so clear for 2000.
"Billy Mays here with another fantastic product"
After he died there were others tried to sound and be like him
Imitated. Never duplicated.
I hate commercials without Billy Mays :-(......
He was a revolutionary no doubt about it and he was passionate about the products you don’t see that anymore
I'm Phil Swift here with...
@@klucy9206 FLEX SEAL!
This guy was my hero! The only TV channel I really watched was Boomerang and it had no commercials until 5:00 or something like that all I remember was I would watch MGM cartoons and then for seven minutes infomercials would be on and this guy was always in one of them. I also liked the hamburger press commercial he did. RIP Billy
Goldie Martinez q
Billy Mays defined the 2000s. Most of his products actually worked.
He can never replace Billy Mays in our hearts.
The phrase "Make it a paste, make it 10 times as powerful" has lived rent-free in my head for 23 years. Unreal.
R.I.P Billy Mays 😭
Damn rip you legend
CZcams should put this in everybody’s recommended
Billy Mays was a great commercial guy. He always knew how to keep the enthusiasm thru out the ad
Cocain does that.🤭

Here watching the Great Billy Mays...I heard his name today on a CZcams video and had to see him once more.
oxiclean commercials aren't the same anymore
It's very sad how he passed away. I can't believe that he was using cocaine and had a heart attack after using. I think he overdosed on cocaine and didn't realize he was having a heart attack. He was a really nice guy! 😁 R.I.P William (Billy) Mays Jr.
Yesterday was his birthday. What an iconic man that has us looking for him in 2023
Back when commercials weren't boring and less funny and annoying,
Billy mays has the best commercials back in the early days.. R.I.P
Billy Mays died of a heart attack in his sleep. The medical examiner's office reported that Mays had used cocaine days before his death. May he rest in peace.
The family got a second autopsy, which concluded there was no cocaine in his system. Just hypertension and an undiagnosed heart condition, probably compounded by getting hit on the head on his plane's rough landing...
