As someone who was born and raised in Luton, I'm so proud our reputation meant people were shitting themselves thinking they'd landed here instead of where they were meant to.
Wait, so Luton is actually the name of a place or town? I thought it was just the name of an airport, like Gatwick and Heathrow. I think this “joke” video will have fell massively short. People just get a plane ticket to London. Nobody knows where the different airports are. As soon as you get off the plane then you just get a transfer to the city centre. Wouldn’t make any difference to anyone which of the 3 airports you actually landed it. It’s irrelevant 🤦♂️
@@isyt1 Now when I travel to London which I have done once a year between 2010 and 2019, I always select Heathrow, because it is simple to get your luggage and go downstair and sit in the dark blue Piccadily Line train all the way to central London. I get off at Holborn and transfer to Central line to go to the station on Tottenham Crt Rd and then by foot to St. Giles hotel which is one of the most affordable hotels right next to Soho. I will admit with full luggage carrying all my souvenirs I elect to pay 65UKP for a cab to take me to the airport so I will not have to move the now heavy suitcases around manually. Also it makes sure we get to the airport on time. As Max' research quickly showed him doing this at Heathrow will not work, but people on the affected flights landing in Gatwick airport forget teh captain and cabin crews welcome message when their journey started and perhaps never paid any attention to messages about local time and weather at Gatwaick airport. I try to pay attention so I will know to put on a jacket or just tuck it into my backpack.
I used to teach a first year econ class at university, and as a small prank at the start of semester I would introduce myself to a new class and say welcome to advanced mathematics. The look of panic across the room was always amusing
I remember flying back home from Florida seeing the, "Welcome to Cleveland," sign. Someone talked over the plane's intercom and had to mention that we were, in fact, in Milwaukee. I was about 9 years old and thought it was the funniest thing I've ever seen, still get a great kick out of it. Glad to see you paying homage to this comedic genius.
@@Crusina First of all, hyperbole, second of all. Media demonized this entire event saying it's cruel, caused panics, and ect ect. Learn what a hyperbole is and look at the media reaction vs actual people who saw the signs themselves
The woman on the plane talking about the person who put up the sign to the person who put up the sign, was so funny to me. That's like a real super villain move.
That pilot announcement ad was one of the greatest ad placements I've come across 😂😂😂 fair play. You're one of the few RUclipsrs who gets creative with it rather than just letting it be a bland placement
It’s a joke and people that have a issue with it needs to check themselves. Like common if your that worried check your flight ticket or just wait when the plane lands to ask. Perfect joke
@@Casocki because the alternative would have been that these people wanted to do something nice and welcome travelers to their hometown but they forgot that their hometown isnt luton. yes. now i see.

2:23 just the NEOOOOOOOOW IM A PLANE is pure comedy gold so you can imagine putting up a sign that says welcome to Luton except one person here cant imagine it they actually did it.
That is exactly what a prank should be. A nice light hearted joke on sb's behalf that doesn't have to be staged or need you to behave like a jerk and is appreciated by everyone.
The only victim of this prank is all flight attendants who always get questioned "did we land in the right airport?" like 1000 times 😂 every time they land at gatwick
If the pilots get hold of this however, imagine ending the "please fasten your seat belts we are now approaching Heathrow" with "for those on the left side of the plane,. watch out for the 'Welcome to Luton" sign".
The only thing he missed is that the Portuguese radio speaker is not a journalist, but was speaking in his daily "column" (I don't know what that's called in radio) of bizarre/out-of-the-normal/funny stuff. It was not newsworthy here for one single reason: we don't know the difference in Luton's and Gatwick's reputations and how switching their names would be such a big deal.
Haha NO WAY! When I saw this on Instagram I thought this would be a silly thing Max Fosh would approve of. Can't believe you were the perpetrator all along.
@@dasamont8274 Pretty sure he has had to much exposure already for him to be a good candidate for that. Beside also working in the same field as most of the people on the show so they might also know him from that.
Flight attendant announcement: "To prepare for landing, please stow your tray tables and return your seats to their full upright position. Some of you on the left side of the aircraft may have noticed a large sign on the ground welcoming you to Luton. Rest assured this is only a prank and we are indeed landing as scheduled at Stansted."
I was on one of those plane during the prank, and I can still remember the few minutes before landing very clearly... I am not an English speaking native. I was on a trip to Lonywith a few friends. My English is not the best (hence why we thought the trip would be fun) and I don't at all know any geography about great Britain except a city or two... So, when I saw the sigh, I genuinely questioned myself as if, during flight reservation, I did not mistaken London, with Luton... I managed to cometely miss the warning as I am not active on social media, and since I did not ask to the flight waitress either, I have spent the remaining flight minutes imaginating how I would tell my friends I made an error and we are in God knows where in the middle of England...
Just imaginate along with me and I'll imaginate with you Imaginate the things you want and we'll imaginate them true Just imaginate a private jet that comes with its very own private crew Or imaginate your favorite pet, and it's a pony just for you!
@@lmn6023 it's not in London. It's in the town/city of Luton. It just serves London air traffic. Source: I lived in a nearby town (Harpenden) for nearly half my life.
Except for the part that he's just copying an idea that was already done in the US and made international news before he did his own version of the idea
Idea for a followup: On the approach to Luton, make a "Welcome to Luton" sign so people who know the prank start panicking, thinking they've been diverted to Gatwick.
As much as the "Welcome to Luton" is funny, I think it's even more hilarious that you booked a flight out of Heathrow via Amsterdam JUST to make sure you can see it when you land at Gatwick...now THAT is dedication And to be fair to Luton, London Southend, Gatwick, and Stansted all have London in the name despite not being in London either. It's the same energy as how the international airport serving the city of Cincinnati, Ohio...is in Kentucky
In South Korea, the government has a history of doing this trick in the past back in 1970. When North Korean Hi-jackers intercepted a flight departing from Japan, the hi-jackets threatened the pilots to head to Pyongyang. The government was smart enough to make Gimpo International Airport disguised as Pyeongyang Airport haha. Good joke btw 😂
The key to a good practical joke is to match the joke to the victim. This is a textbook example of doing it right. A low-key worry of every traveller is to end up in the wrong place. And Luton's reputation and vicinity and you have a believable scenario. it goes just far enough to give people that momentary jolt of panic, but is harmless enough that most people will laugh afterwards.

I was flying to Gatwick June 2022 and saw it, shat myself but then I laughed really hard on the plane while checking my phone's gps that it wasn't actually true.
All the 'prank' channels that have ever existed-- THIS is a prank. The joke being so small and silly is contrasted to the amount of creative effort he had to put in which makes it really funny to see the outcome and people's reactions. I like pranks that don't harm unsuspecting innocents. Anyone actually upset-confused here would have been properly reassured by airport/flight staff that they are on the right flight. This is up there with James Veitch and the bit with the rubber ducks in the bathroom he shares with roommates.

As a genetically humorless german I must say - THAT IS FUNNY! This is how it's made. Not hurting or humiliating anyone, no real harm done. This I like.
@Lipstick Nista If it's their first time arriving at the UK, then they could think Luton is a neighbourhood, or an adjacent town, could be a seasonal celebration or cultural event, a first timer would have no idea, and even someone in the know would ask the stewardess... panic attack? Leave that to the Americans and the mentally frail part of their society.
@Lipstick Nista rounding a corner can theoretically give someone a panic attack, i mean literally anything can give you a panic attack under the wrong cicumstance, this is not a harmful prank, and you should not hold yourself back from doing something for the microscopic chance that it results in misfortune for you or another, imagine we couldn't buy cake because someone with an allergy might buy it, it would be completely logical as we don't require cake to subsist and it in fact hinders our health, but the problem is you can just as easily invert the problem, what if we didn't buy a cake which causes us to have low blood sugar, in short any choice you make comes with it the possibility that your actions negatively affect others and the simple fact that there is a theoretical chance of that will always exist for every choice we make, including ones we don't realize.
To be fair, people might not necessarily panic simply due to the fact that they're at 'Luton". It might more be that they will be late, miss other flights, people that are waiting to pick them up at said airport that can complicate things for them. So I can totally believe that they would "panic".
the funniest part is that i was in that ryanair plane that passed in the beginning. so good to see a celebrity in real life. i genuinely thought you guys were constructing a sign that i thought meant we were actually in Luton but now that i watch this video i know that its a total prank and not a mistake by some "construction workers".
7:58 I love how Metro just tweeted "Passengers" were left in a state of panic, but not 'passengers to Gatwick' or anything. As if the sheer realisation that people were in Luton, even if they were planning to go there, puts them into panic 🤣

The question is whether he'll actually show up as the guest they ask questions to, or if there will just be a normal question about this.
@@dasamont8274 was imagining the guest segment
@@dasamont8274 Pretty sure he has had to much exposure already for him to be a good candidate for that. Beside also working in the same field as most of the people on the show so they might also know him from that.
Can't wait.

Some of you on the left side of the aircraft may have noticed a large sign on the ground welcoming you to Luton. Rest assured this is only a prank and we are indeed landing as scheduled at Stansted."

I was on one of those plane during the prank, and I can still remember the few minutes before landing very clearly...
I am not an English speaking native. I was on a trip to Lonywith a few friends. My English is not the best (hence why we thought the trip would be fun) and I don't at all know any geography about great Britain except a city or two...
So, when I saw the sigh, I genuinely questioned myself as if, during flight reservation, I did not mistaken London, with Luton... I managed to cometely miss the warning as I am not active on social media, and since I did not ask to the flight waitress either, I have spent the remaining flight minutes imaginating how I would tell my friends I made an error and we are in God knows where in the middle of England...

Only Max Fosh could make a prank that makes it to international news... 🤣🤣
Except for the part that he's just copying an idea that was already done in the US and made international news before he did his own version of the idea
Idea for a followup: On the approach to Luton, make a "Welcome to Luton" sign so people who know the prank start panicking, thinking they've been diverted to Gatwick.
Is that supposed to be funny?
@@tubeguy4066 Yes and it's hilarious.
@@tubeguy4066 Yes, and, in fact, it is!
thats a good one
He said in the video Luton has their own sign already.
As much as the "Welcome to Luton" is funny, I think it's even more hilarious that you booked a flight out of Heathrow via Amsterdam JUST to make sure you can see it when you land at Gatwick...now THAT is dedication
And to be fair to Luton, London Southend, Gatwick, and Stansted all have London in the name despite not being in London either. It's the same energy as how the international airport serving the city of Cincinnati, Ohio...is in Kentucky
We all know why we flew to Amsterdam though, don't we

In South Korea, the government has a history of doing this trick in the past back in 1970.

The government was smart enough to make Gimpo International Airport disguised as Pyeongyang Airport haha.
Good joke btw 😂
Never laughed so maniacally in my whole life.
This is insanely funny
The key to a good practical joke is to match the joke to the victim. This is a textbook example of doing it right. A low-key worry of every traveller is to end up in the wrong place. And Luton's reputation and vicinity and you have a believable scenario. it goes just far enough to give people that momentary jolt of panic, but is harmless enough that most people will laugh afterwards.

I was flying to Gatwick June 2022 and saw it, shat myself but then I laughed really hard on the plane while checking my phone's gps that it wasn't actually true.
All the 'prank' channels that have ever existed-- THIS is a prank. The joke being so small and silly is contrasted to the amount of creative effort he had to put in which makes it really funny to see the outcome and people's reactions.
I like pranks that don't harm unsuspecting innocents. Anyone actually upset-confused here would have been properly reassured by airport/flight staff that they are on the right flight. This is up there with James Veitch and the bit with the rubber ducks in the bathroom he shares with roommates.

Passengers: "ha. this is amusing."
Media around the world: "PASSENGERS IN SHOCK AND PANIC !"
While this gap is amusing, it also makes me sad thinking how media is training us to view the world.
Wow, way to be hyperbolic/remove context. That's quite ironic actually, considering your message.
That's actually exactly what I was thinking lol
I mean, I'd say that's accurate. Giving people a harmless shock was literally the intent.

@Lipstick Nista If it's their first time arriving at the UK, then they could think Luton is a neighbourhood, or an adjacent town, could be a seasonal celebration or cultural event, a first timer would have no idea, and even someone in the know would ask the stewardess... panic attack? Leave that to the Americans and the mentally frail part of their society.
@Lipstick Nista rounding a corner can theoretically give someone a panic attack, i mean literally anything can give you a panic attack under the wrong cicumstance, this is not a harmful prank, and you should not hold yourself back from doing something for the microscopic chance that it results in misfortune for you or another, imagine we couldn't buy cake because someone with an allergy might buy it, it would be completely logical as we don't require cake to subsist and it in fact hinders our health, but the problem is you can just as easily invert the problem, what if we didn't buy a cake which causes us to have low blood sugar, in short any choice you make comes with it the possibility that your actions negatively affect others and the simple fact that there is a theoretical chance of that will always exist for every choice we make, including ones we don't realize.
I enjoy the bite size video, considering all the effort and time put into these, that could drag on for a season (yeah, Discovery Channel!)
It speaks volumes that the idea of arriving into Luton in and of itself is enough to make people panic.
"oh gawds, not there!"
Well, I've been sent to Coventry before. Just as heart-wrenching.
@@got2kittys almost as heart wrenching as a man United game
Lived in Harpenden for half of my life, can confirm Luton sucks backside.
To be fair, people might not necessarily panic simply due to the fact that they're at 'Luton". It might more be that they will be late, miss other flights, people that are waiting to pick them up at said airport that can complicate things for them. So I can totally believe that they would "panic".
Luton's bounced back!
the funniest part is that i was in that ryanair plane that passed in the beginning. so good to see a celebrity in real life. i genuinely thought you guys were constructing a sign that i thought meant we were actually in Luton but now that i watch this video i know that its a total prank and not a mistake by some "construction workers".
