McLaren Sending Electric Shocks to Those Who Try to Steal It: Latest Prank

However, when such a prank, or social experiment, as some like to call it, involves a Mclaren, things climb to a whole new level.

We're talking about a 650S Spider that was left in perfect bait condition, which means the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 was idling, the doors were unlocked and the top was down.

Sitting in a parking lot, this Woking machine drew attention like a magnet, especially for those who were looking for a joyride.

We'll go no further with the explanation, as you can see where the story is going. This would've been interesting if the action in the clip hadn't been staged.

Sadly, the majority of the so-called pranks we see nowadays are either staged, cross the limit regarding people's personal space way too far, or both.

Even so, we have to admit there is one guy, who probably agreed to jump in the McLaren for this stunt, who put on a decent show.

For starters, the man walked to the 650S and tried to open the door by swiping his finger across the surface of the body panel. This is the kind of stuff McLaren used to implement back in the days of the MP4-12C. After many people who drove the supercar, ourselves included, talked about the frustrating glitches of the sensor-based system, the British carmaker switched to a more feasible solution.

The same guy exits the 650S Spider as if the McLaren was some sort of General Lee Charger, which isn't something you see on a daily basis.

Since it's never OK to nitpick without also offering a solution, we'd recommend Remi Gaillard's stunts to those in the market for some unstaged pranks.
