TV pranksters pretend to be ISIS kidnappers and force terrified Egyptian actress to beg for her life
Hidden cameras show the scared woman crying as the men try to put fake suicide belt on her
IN what could be the cruellest prank on television, Egyptian presenters dressed up as ISIS extremists, tricking an actress into thinking she had been kidnapped.
Shocking footage shows the pranksters cornering the woman, named as Heba Magdi, with fake weapons in a house.
The men, who wear balaclavas, try to force the woman to beg for her life.
They hold up an ISIS flat behind the sobbing woman, who is clearly terrified.
The cringe-worthy scene was recorded with a hidden camera in the would-be kidnapper’s house.
The actress is seen sitting at a kitchen table, surrounded by the fake extremists.
She openly sobs into her hands as one jihadi pulls a gun on her.
But as the situation escalates, the terrified actress holds a chair in front of her face and cowers under the table.
Another would-be jihadi enters the room with a fake suicide vest and attempts to put it on Magdi.
She runs away from the man and tries to cross the room before cowering again.
But there is no way out of the room for the actress, who is once again cornered by the pranksters.
One man brandishing a fake gun gestures to the woman that she go back to the centre of the room.
The woman becomes even more terrified when staged gunfire is let off in the room, according to AhlulBayt News Agency.
The scared actress runs to a couch where she holds her hands over her ears in shock.
In the background, police sirens can be heard.
Naïve Magdi begs for her life amid the chaos in the room.
After a while, one of the men goes to explain to the woman that she has been the target of a prank.
The lady still appears to be in a state of confusion and complete shock.
