Within hours of this Christian Television Commercial being played on TV about 90% of the kids knew it by heart.

It played for a couple of years at odd hours of the day and night. It lingered on in Tasmania for about ten years.

Business people in their twenties remember the advert from their childhood and are known to exclaim suddenly in the midddle of one of Colin's presentations, 'You're that nut case on the mad mouse advert.'

Colin's friend Dr Deane Hutton (of Curiosity Show fame and a fellow conference speaker) shot the footage and had Colin ride the Mad Mouse about 20 times. He claims he had the worst end of it because to get the close ups he rode the thing backwards jabbing himself in the eye every time the mouse turned a corner.
