'Mankini' pranksters have gun pulled on them on the streets of Compton
There’s always one person who can’t take a joke. And for these pranksters, that person happened to be holding a gun.
The cheeky trio behind Twinz TV are famous for their controversial pranks and this one was almost their last.
The boys chose to film in Compton, a US city synonymous with gang violence, in a video titled ‘how to win a street fight in Compton’.
The video shows the men approaching random strangers and picking fights with them, before they shed their clothes revealing a Borat-style mankini underneath.
One of the jokers can be heard telling a man he wanted to ‘rearrange his face’ and, of course, the man reacted defensively.
But before any punches can be thrown, the comedian strips down to his ‘onesie’, causing the man to flee.
For most candidates, that was the general reaction – until they came across a group of five men walking down the street.
“You boys wanna rumble in the goddamn jungle?” one of the pranksters asks.
While they were busy throwing insults to set the scene, one of members of the group slipped behind the duo and cocked his gun, pointing it sideways at the tricksters.
Oblivious to the imminent danger behind them, they dropped their daks and carried out the prank – thankfully scaring away the thuggish men.
The prank has caused controversy, much like the Jalal brothers in Sydney who have made headlines with their terror-inspired pranks.
Just weeks after fronting court and having their Melbourne home raided by police, the Jalals were back to their old tricks, releasing another video titled ‘baby bomb prank’.
