Extremely scary elevator prank in Brazil

This is from a Brazilian TV show. It's really funny, and a very creepy trick, but I couldn't help but feel bad for some of the prank's victims.

I'm surprised no one had a heart attack or peed their pants. You couldn't do this one in America. Some idiot would pull out a gun.

Worth the view, if you have a few minutes. Good stuff.

It's just people who get into a elevator and the lights go out. A little girl enters and acts as a ghost. The lights come back on and they shit their pants. The girl screams, light go out, she disappears.

It's funny as hell, until you start questioning things.


What sets me off is: That no one noticed the elevator not moving? I've been on luxury elevators and they shoot your stomach into your shoes. That's why, I think they might be actors. But the lighting affect looks semi-real to me. It might have been altered to give more affect.

Assuming they're not actors, it's also reasonable to assume that they cut out all the people who didn't fall for it. I would think something like this would be an all-day undertaking (if I recall, the very last guy was running for the front door and it was dark outside), just to get enough people on there (who also got scared) to have enough footage for a successful skit.

There might have been two dozen people or groups of people who got into the elevator and the 6 or 7 instances we were shown were the only ones who fell for it. Showing the ones who didn't fall for it isn't fun.
