Super Bowl ad based on YouTube video?

An ad late in Super Bowl XLVII for Dodge Ram that seemed to strike a cord with viewers was based very closely on a YouTube video.

The ad, which depicts a series of still images of farmers and farming with the audio of Paul Harvey’s speech to the Future Farmers of America convention in 1978, is very similar to a YouTube video made by Farms.com in 2011.

The only noticeable differences are production value, differing images and images, of course, featuring Dodge Ram pickups being used on the farm.

Watch both below and see if you can tell the difference.
