Candid Camera prank video / Unsuspecting bus-riders were all this clever joke needed

Prankster Photoshops People Into Ads While They Wait for the Bus

Wouldn’t you be shocked if you were waiting for the bus, and you saw yourself magically appear in that Gap ad at your stop? Yup. And so were the victims of this delightful Photoshop prank by artist Erik Johansson and Adobe.

A few hidden cameras, some amazing Photoshop savvy, and several unsuspecting bus-riders were all the clever joke needed. It’s super fun, and it’s exactly what Candid Camera would have been with a little modern image retouching tech. This video took place in Sweden, but Adobe will be doing it in other cities, and you’ll be able to watch live. Otherwise, pay attention next time you’re waiting on your bus to arrive, because you might be the next victim. [Hypervocal via @Digg]
