Strangers stop to help crying baby only to be pranked

7/17/2012

What sensible human being who comes across a baby crying alone in public wouldn’t stop to help? YouTube’s resident jokester Jack Vale exploits this soft spot in his latest prank on strangers, leaving on a bench a masked crib holding what appears to be a crying infant. Passersby, incredulous of the situation and cursing the nonexistent parents of the baby, stop to check on the crying baby behind the blanket — only to find not the cute face of a helpless baby but the traumatizing face of an ugly old man. It’s a cruel prank, but the victims’ reactions — sprinkled with expletives and screams of shock — are, sorry to say, pretty entertaining.
