Crashing Cellphone Conversations At The Park Prank

Nov 062012

Online prankster Greg of Mediocre Films tried out his Cell Phone Crashing prank again for the second time at a park in San Francisco, California.

With a cellphone to his ear but no one on the other lines, Greg walked up to people at the park who were actually talking to other humans on their phone.

After breaking into their personal space he would respond loudly to their conversations which confused them great. Whenever he was confronted he would just act innocent and busy on the phone. Truly a prank of genius.

Seagulls have been known to steal before. There’s video of seagulls stealing some snacks, and even a recording video camera.

The obnoxious sea birds must be attracted to some shiny part of video cameras, perhaps the lens, because this second video of a seagull stealing a recording video camera in San Francisco has just gone viral after being reported by SFWeekly.

Nathalie Rollandin posted the GoPro video last week, but it has only started to trend now, and is further showcased on LaughingSquid, MetaFilter, and Gizmodo.
