There's nothing better than getting a good laugh out of a prank and the notorious prankster Jack Vale knows just how to do it.
In order to trick pedestrians, Vale places a creepy mask of an old wrinkly man inside a baby carriage. To catch people's attention, an iPhone accompanies the carriage and it's set to blare out the sound of a baby crying. A blanket veils the mask and cameras are set up to catch people's reactions.
As people spot the carriage with the distressed sounds of the 'baby,' they stop and are stunned to see a toddler left alone. They approach the carriage and take off the blanket and it's surely not what they were expecting to see. Some laugh, some get upset and others cry from sheer shock.
