"Okay, relax and put your hand right here on the table. Don't worry, I'm not really going stab it with a fork."

That's what they told the guy in this video -- but they lied. And he hollered good and loud when they did, too -- even though he knew perfectly well that he was looking down at a rubber hand in front of him when the fork came down and stabbed it.

Find out why he screamed like a girl. Embarassed

* Don't be shy! Leave a reply. Very Happy
