Remember that Bait Car TV show? They had a car that appeared to left unattended to and with the keys left in it. Thieves would get into the car and attempt to steal it, but the vehicle was actually a high-tech bait car, rigged with hidden cameras, remote locking doors and radio trackers. Police would let the criminals steal the car then shut it down, lock them inside, and then arrest them. That was a fun show, but alas the show was canceled in 2012. The fine folks over at TwinzTV didn’t quite have the budget for a sophisticated bait car, but they had the moola for a bait purse.
The prank is called “Exploding Bait Purse Prank In The Hood 2016,” and they had a lovely person wearing an elegant dress “accidentally” leave their purse lying around. Potential thieves seize the opportunity, but it blows up in their face, quite literally. Once they open the purse it shoots colorful sludge into their faces. The admission of crime is written all over their faces. Don’t steal purses people.
