It wouldn't surprise me if it were real, to be honest. I've heard much worse happen on air that are real. And lawsuits have been filed against radio stations in the states for such stunts.

And how about this?

Quote

It happened few years ago: few "genius" guys organized an incredible prank at some British airport. Dressed up as cab/limo drivers, they pretended that they need to pick up particular passengers of newly arrived Pakistani/India/Thai airliners. So the lady announced through the loudspeakers (and you, too, should read it aloud) that the following people are to show up:

Ayheddis Varkenjaab and Aywellbe Fayed
Arhevbin Fayed and Bybeiev Rhibodie
Aynayda Pizaqvick and Malexa Kriest
Awul Dasfilshabeda and Nowaynayda Zheet
Makollig Jezvahted and Levdaroum DeBahzted
Steelaygot Maowenbach and Tuka Piziniztee

Of course those wiseasses recorded this. ...but police realized what happens and threw them out of Heathrow...


...and that is why you shouldn't say "Tea who you yeah bunny" in Poland, LOOOOOOL!
I saw the original theatrical release of the Old Trilogy on the big screen and I'm proud of it...
How did I accomplish that (considering my age) is my secret...

Actually, one time when I was a young teen, a friend and I placed orders on all these 800 number lines and sent COD orders to a neighbor. In case you're wondering what COD is, it stands for Cash on Delivery. Which means we didn't have to pay when we ordered, the person who receives the package pays upon delivery. He was none too happy.

I'm calling for an investigation into your background candidate Bossk! And to think I would have voted for you...

I did not inhale nor did I have sexual relations with that woman.

I'm just recalling Spin & Marty's radio prank on the Simpsons. Anyone else remember that one?

Princess Leia: I happen to like nice men.
Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

Do you mean the one where Bill and Marty call some guy and tell him that his wife is dead? Yeah, that is pretty close... the Simpsons are pure genius, even years later people are still ripping them off (don't get me started on 'I'm king of the world!'), that or they're prescient which wouldn't surprise me...

A LONG TIME AGO IN A NEIGHBORHOOD FAR, FAR AWAY...

BEFORE THERE WAS SUCH A THING AS CALLER I.D. MY LITTLE BROTHER AND I PULLED OFF ONE OF THE GREATEST PRANK CALLS IN NEIGHBORHOOD HISTORY. WE LOOKED UP A NAME AND ADDRESS IN THE PHONE BOOK. WE CALLED THE GUY AND TOLD HIM THAT WE WERE FROM THE LOCAL ELECTRIC COMPANY. WE TOLD HIM THAT ACCORDING TO OUR RECORDS HIS ELECTRIC BILL WAS THREE MONTHS PAST DUE. WE THEN THREATENED TO TURN THE PERSON'S POWER OFF IF HE DIDN'T MAKE HIS PAYMENT BY 5:00 PM. THE THING IS THAT IT WAS FIFTEEN MINUTES UNTIL FIVE. HE ARGUED THAT HIS PAYMENTS HAD BEEN SENT IN, BUT WE TOLD HIM THAT IF THE COMPUTER SAYS IT'S NOT THERE THEN WE HAVEN'T RECEIVED IT. WE THEN HUNG UP ON HIM.

NEXT, WE CALLED THE LOCAL ELECTRIC COMPANY AND GAVE THEM THE GUY'S NAME AND ADDRESS. WE ASKED IF WE COULD HAVE "OUR" POWER TURNED OFF BECAUSE WE WERE GOING TO BE GONE FOR THE ENTIRE SUMMER AND DIDN'T WANT TO RISK THE HOUSE BURNING DOWN. HE SAID THAT IT COULD BE DONE AND ASKED US WHEN WE WANTED IT TO BE SHUT OFF. WE TOLD HIM THAT OUR FLIGHT WAS GOING TO LEAVE AT 5:00 PM AND ASKED IF THE ELECTRICITY COULD BE TURNED OFF BY THEN. HE ASSURED US THAT IT WOULD BE DONE. SURE ENOUGH AT 5:00 PM THE GUY'S ELECTRICITY WAS SHUT OFF.

HEHEHE...

That was pure genius, Dayv. What happened afterwards? Any followup?
