Awesome Video Of The Day

A Classic Middle Eastern Practical Joke

One time I drew a boner on my friend’s car with a bar of soap. That was probably the craziest prank I’ve ever pulled. Oh, and one time at a sleepover we put a kid’s hand in warm water, but he didn’t even pee his pants or anything, so we poured the water in his ear and punched him in the stomach. I thought we were pretty wild, but that was before I learned about the ol’ “bringing a full-grown lion to your friend’s party” gag.

This video serves as definitive proof that people in the Middle East are hard as nails. Sure, they might be running away in sheer terror, but cut them some slack - IT’S A LION. If anyone has President Bush’s email address, please forward this video to him. Maybe if he sees what passes for practical jokes over there he’ll reconsider this whole “War On Terror” thing.

Stay tuned for the hilarious retaliation video where they hold the guy who brought the lion down and put a live cobra down his robe.
