NEW YORK CITY The folks are Improv Everywhere are at it again. Well, theyre always at it, which is understandable since their motto is We cause scenes. The self-proclaimed prank collective created a sweet treat from the streets of New York.

If youve ever been to the Big Apple, or any city for that matter, its more than likely youve encountered buskers and other street performers.

The setup of this mild mischievousness is a simple recreation of many park performances. A man gets the attention of patrons in Washington Square Park, telling all that his crew is about to bust out some amazing breakdancing and tumbling. He gathers the crowd and pushes play, but the music is all wrong.

Instead of performing the advertised act, the dancers instead attempt ballet, which is more in line with the Tchaikovsky-inspired tune blaring sweetly from the boombox.

Thus, the prank is born. Ill let you watch the video to see how well they do. Its a short and sweetly entertaining prank to add a happy note to your weekend. Enjoy!
