"P&G Thank You, Mom - Strong | Rio 2016 Olympic Games" It takes someone strong to make someone strong. This summer, as we celebrate the world's athletes at the 2016 Olympic Games, let's not forget the person whose strength inspired them along the way: Mom. Thank you, Mom. The ad begins with an Olympic gymnast thinking back to a time of her childhood when a tornado was bearing down on her house. Her mother grabbed her up and took her to the basement. Next we see an Olympic beach volleyball player thinking back to a time where she got in a car accident as a little girl. Her mother reassured her immediately. The we move to an Olympic diver who got trapped in an elevator as a child. Again, mom was with him and made it okay. We follow a turbulent airplane ride, a mom protecting from bullies, and mom protecting from cat-callers. We then return to the Olympians today and they still turn to their mothers for support. Come on. Come on. Oh sweetie. You're okay. You're okay. Take a deep breath. Everything is alright. It was just a little turbulence. Leave him alone! I'll call your mothers! Hey, babe. Where are you going? Where you going? I can't do this anymore. Son, I know in my heart you can. P&G, proud sponsor of Moms. Rio2016 Germany It takes someone strong to make someone strong.
