Should I do this?

[john voight]

Note: this is just an idea, im not @ all comitted.

This will likely take place in sanfransisco suburbs. maybe even in frisco, idk.

I plan on buying a gasmask a la:

or

I will then buy a portable fog machine

I will desguise the machine somewhere (burry into ground, put in bush, etc...) I will also have some enclosures that look like they hold chemicals. (Ideally ppl should think the gas is coming from them)

Maybe ill wear i biohazard suit:

This, I guess, is starting to sound like a jackass episode. Anyway, Ideally I have a few teammates who are dressed like casual pedestrians. I'll also have some team mates dressed as cops http://www.snappysupply.com/Merchant..._Code=LAW30020 or doctors, or whatever (also wearing gas masks).

Now the pedestrians will be laying next to the gass, pretending to sufficate. meanwhile the gas mask team is sitting on the opposite end of the street or park or whatever. They will be just chilling, watching these peds faking death.

We will also have some camra men shooting this. Then some improvisation will take place, and we will play it by ear. Ideally the public won't be alarmed, just kind of worried.

Other porps we might use are blood packets for the peds.

THe idea is done yet. I feel this current plan is stupid, and is missing something. I'll sleep on it.

Discussion:
1. could it be funny on video?
2. is it plain stupid?
3. possible risks involved?
4. should i get a life?

Yes you sohuld do this and no there isnt any debate about it

[RunDownHouse]

It is plain stupid. Why on earth do you think someone would enjoy watching a mock terrorist attack? Hint: do this on a Tokyo subway and give us a trip report.

There's lots of "stupid" stuff that is (arguably) funny. Things like antiquing - essentially an updated pie-in-the-face routine - nut shots, etc, are all funny on a base, physical level. Faking a gassing is not, and is also much more likely to get you jail time.

PS you're about 17, right?

Risk = high but the video would be so [censored] awesome [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

This could be pretty funny, but it would depend a lot on the performances and how convincing it is.

It's prob a little stupid because of the risk:reward ratio. I could honestly see you getting in real trouble for this, I dont think the government would take lightly to faked terrorism.

If you're 17 like another poster said though, I'd go for it.

Just for full disclosure, I thought the "Catch snakes and release them in the theater!" stunt was incredibly lame for Snakes On a Plane. Similarly, this sounds really not funny.

Stupid.

One thing you should do, though, is put more detail in your post titles. More people will read them.

I heard that the US government really enjoys these types of pranks.

Enjoy prison.
