If two be-costumed dudes approach you on the streets of Oslo and challenge you to a limbo contest, don’t do it–unless you don’t mind looking silly on TV.
Norwegian comedy show Karl Johan staged the prank. Two guys, dressed in some semblance of carnival wear, approached their unsuspecting victims on the streets, and asked them to compete in a limbo. The only catch was that the participants had to limbo blindfolded. Most people seemed game, and readily strapped on the blindfold. The limbo pole went up, the participants readied their spines and…
…well, just watch.
The poor unsuspecting victims were left to wobble blindly down the street bent backwards like some kind of, well, strange wobbly back-bent thing. Here were some of our favorites:

Luckily no one was hurt, although their egos might have been a bit scuffed by the end of all this. But now you know that if limbo ever comes up, refuse the blindfold.
