Great prank!

[Mike Drew]

Hi guys,

Real prank, or fake prank to promote the new movie 'Carrie'? I don't know, but it's great regardless!

"Scaring people is hard. Scaring New Yorkers is even harder......

It's clear that the folks behind the prank in the video above know a thing or two about how to successfully freak out even the most skeptic seen-it-alls. And what they execute is as impressive as anything you'd find on a high-budget Hollywood set.

The skilled pranksters constructed a fake wall inside West Village coffee shop 'Snice Cafe in NYC, installing a cable and pulley that send an stuntman unsuspecting patron flying up into the air. Chairs, books, and tables are all remotely controlled, giving the illusion that a young woman's anger-induced, out-of-control telekinesis is behind a room full of moving objects."

That was so funny.

I had to stop drinking my beer I laughed so hard.

Fuck I wish I could have been in that room.

The problem with doing something like that is all the possible 'unintended consequences'...like someone with a heart condition croaking, for instance.

That's what third party liability insurance is for. Find reasons to do stuff not reasons to stay at home in bed scared to go out.

Very good promo, would have scared the crap out of me!

That's what third party liability insurance is for.

Financial liability was not a concern.

Find reasons to do stuff not reasons to stay at home in bed scared to go out.

After what I saw/did in 'Nam, that's not an issue either.

 

Ha. Nice one.
