Guy Goes Down Like A Ton Of Bricks After Thinking A Shark Was Attacking Him Through Glass

Daily Mail- As a general rule it’s always best to pay attention to warning signs near a shark tank – be it real or virtual. Unfortunately for one man this lesson was one that needed to be learned the hard way.

Gregory Heinzman was enjoying an afternoon at the International Spy Museum in Washington DC on Sunday when he came across a screen showing a computerised shark. Above the screen in bold letters were the words ‘touch at your own risk’ – a warning to which the daredevil visitor paid no heed.

So I guess this is officially the hottest prank in the streets these days. Trent blogged about a guy in China thinking a bridge was collapsing under his feet a couple of weeks ago and now we have a shark giving this sorry son of a bitch a heart attack in public. Good, great, grand, wonderful! Now you can’t trust anybody or anything when you are out. Anything you see on a wall or on the ground can be a TV that makes a picture realer than real life designed to literally scare the shit out of you. And the friend you went out with that appears to be looking at his phone the entire time? He is actually recording you, just waiting for your heart to jump out of your throat so he can go in for the close up like this.

This is all like the 2017 version of those videos where you have to look for something in a picture and that scary bloody bitch screams right into your face and down your soul.

It got to the point where I wouldn’t watch a video that I didn’t open myself. That’s no way to go through life. Now with these TV screens and reaction videos, we are all on the path of one day living in the Truman Show now, except if the Truman Show was a digital version of one of those terrifying haunted houses that I promised myself I would never go into. Fuck that.

Then again, this is all a pretty sweet excuse to never leave the house and hang out with people in public. Always love having one of those excuses in my back pocket.
