Some pranksters at an airport made up foreign looking names that when read over the public address system sound like something else entirely.

This is the story as told by the pranksters.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Having six hours to kill in any airport is murder. So we decided to liven it up. Whilst waiting for our flight back to Sydney, we'd go and sit on the balcony at Terminal 3 at Heathrow, directly under one of the speakers where the roof is low for maximum acoustic effects. We put a digital tape recorder in our bag with the microphone poking out of the top. We'd look for a flight that?d arrived in the last 40 minutes from somewhere where you'd expect foreign names, then write a letter saying, "Pick up passenger so and so, from flight etc, destination etc." That way, it looked like the limo had been arranged in advance as the flight arrival details and the motel name was written on the note.

We wore an ID-style badge that we'd received at a recent conference so that we'd looked like limo drivers. One of us would ask airport administration to make an announcement calling for our passenger and then the other did the second. We'd pretend to be unable to pronounce it and then hand them the bit of paper with the name written on it to administration.

Long winded, but well worth it!

We got rumbled doing the "My colleague just, etc " . They actually threatened to arrest us as apparently they ? d actually had complaints over the previous weeks! We were toying with doing it again just to see what they?d arrest us for, but we rang Chris and all he said was, " go to Gatwick!" This is the reason the last one sounds so crap ? cos Gatwick is a much noisier place and the ceilings are high, and it was difficult to get near a speaker. The lengths we had to go to... "




Don't believe the story?

Hold on a sec! Are you mocking a scottish or irish accent?

black1444

are they actually violating any law?

Iceman

Nope!
That's why they said: "We were toying with doing it again just to see what they?d arrest us for..." because they were not violating any law.
But you can get thrown out of the airport...

1 and 5 made me ROFL

Hilarious, these guys must have had a good time, and the person who read it on the airport must have realized pretty quick after pronouncing the note what he/she just said.
