Prankster Ronn tricks bragging friend Joel with a high tech videogame prank.

Australia's version of the prank show. The prank patrol help Ronn play a high-tech prank on his friend Joel, who always brags about his video game skills.

In Australia's own version of the popular series, Aussie host Scotty introduces a prankster who is on a mission to prank someone they know - a friend, sibling, parent, teacher, maybe even their entire karate class! 

In the customised Spy Van, Scotty and the prankster plan out the prank - first the prankster reveals who they want to prank and why. Then Scotty and the prankster choose the perfect prank from the Top Secret Prank Patrol files. Whatever the challenge, Scotty and the Ninjas will find the right ingredients - special effects gurus, actors and a location - and then build a prank the victim will never forget!

In this episode of Australia's version of Prank Patrol, our prankster Ronn wants to prank his friend Joel who always brags about his video game skills. The team take him to the Academy of Interactive Entertainment, where a video games concept artist designs a convincing high tech character costume and the lead animator shows a few tricks of the trade to help bring the prank alive. Once the costume is sourced, our host is transformed into a life size video game action figure. 

The Prankster then invites his friend to come and test out a brand new video game. But how will Joel react when the video game comes to life right before his eyes?
