VIDEO: THIS TAXI PRANK TURNS NYC INTO A FROZEN NIGHTMARE

Unprecedented series of natural disasters threatened the planet, the world's leaders came together to create an intricate network of satellites to control the global climate and keep everyone safe.

But now, something has gone wrong—the system built to protect the Earth is attacking it, and it’s a race against time to uncover the real threat before a worldwide Geostorm wipes out everything…and everyone along with it.

In the prank, which can be seen in the video below, unsuspecting passengers are picked up by a taxi, at which point the Taxi TV station cuts to a 'Breaking News' broadcast announcing that dangerous ice storms are popping up out of nowhere in New York City. 

Then the broadcast loses its signal and the cab turns down an alley that’s been set up to look like it’s iced over — complete with snow, frozen people, and birds falling from the sky.

As far as pranks go, it’s elaborate, but not very believable. The only thing that seems frightening is the jump-scare from the guy who comes and bangs on the window.
