What Would You Do If A Dinosaur Was Chasing You?
By Marcy Kennedy (@MarcyKennedy)
This video should appeal to anyone who watched Jurassic Park or read the book (though it’s funny even if you haven’t). This is a prank that was played in Japan and aired on a TV show there.
Did you spot the human legs? I almost didn’t, and so I know I wouldn’t have seen them had I really been there.

Hilarious! I think I’d fall down laughing after seeing those legs. LOL

I think I might be embarrassed at first, but I can see it being something I’d laugh about and a story I’d tell for the rest of my life 🙂

Funny! I think I’d have screamed bloody murder until I realized playing dead or searching for hidden cameras made more sense. 😉 I’m with you on cherishing the funny story!

I did wonder if my sense of logic might not have taken over rather quickly. My husband says I’m kind of annoying in that way. I catch on too quickly so it’s not as fun to try to pull one over on me. Either way, funny stuff 🙂

I didn’t spot the legs until the very end, and I was only watching it on a video. (I actually thought it was mechanical until I saw the legs.)

Marcy, that is hilarious! I think people are watching too many dinosaur movies lately. Although, I have to say that it was realistic enough and if it wasn’t for the human legs it would have been extraordinary!

Indeed. I thought they did a great job. I’m not sure if the other people were running from the dinosaur as well or if they were part of the prank, but if they were part of the prank, they were the perfect touch to make someone fall for it.
