Watch as Chris Bliss performs an amazing juggling finale.

The music is a medley of Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End off of the Abbey Road album by The Beatles. Every time I see this I just have to revisit my Beatles collection.

Another great mission by Improv Everywhere. This time 16 agents stage a spontaneous musical in the food court of a Los Angeles shopping mall.

I’m a big fan of Improv Everywhere and this prank is a great example of why.


In order to pull this mission off Improv Everywhere worked with the commissioner of the Hermosa Beach Little League. The commissioner provided them with the names, numbers, and batting order of all of the players for both teams. He told them the 2 PM game between the Mudcats and the Lugnuts would be ideal for their mission, and allowed them to arrive early to set up all of their equipment. He was the only person involved with the league who knew what was going to happen. The players, coaches, and parents were kept completely in the dark.

Some of the pranks their agents did were; they filled the stands with agents that acted as though they were big fans of some of the players. They produced full color programs for the event. They had an agent going thru the stands selling (for free) peanuts, popcorns, and other snacks. They collaborated with NBC Sports, and they took care of renting the jumbotron and hiring legendary sportscaster Jim Gray to call the game. Jim ran the play-by-play and one of the agents served as his color man. And as if that wasn’t enough, they worked with NBC Sports to get the Goodyear blimp to fly over the game and film the action from above.

And here is another video of the staged press conference afterwards.
