- Taking pranking to an insane new level, two Australian friends have successfully fooled the North Korean government into believing they were professional golfers there to represent Australia for the North Korea Open tournament. The two said "we knew they weren't big on Internet", suggesting North Korean authorities involved weren't able to search the web to check their identity - it wasn't until they started playing and hit 3 drives off the 1st tee into the water did it become clear to authorities they were just amateur hacks (neither play golf - “I hit 120 and my caddy told me I had brought great shame to my family", and if it weren't for the 15-year-old Nepalese ambassador's daughter the pair would've finished last). Surely this would make them spies!
Pranks don't get much more ballsy than this (especially as their home city of Brisbane is within range of Kimmy Jong's nukes and there's a guy who has some seriously off days), and I don't recall too many fulltime youtube pranksters who've tried to ply their trade in North Korea, with many of them drawing the line at risking life imprisonment in North Korean gulags, SO, BOYS (Morgan Ruig & Evan Shay, both 28) - THAT WAS HYSTERICAL TO THE MAX, YOU'RE BOTH FRICKIN CRAZY, AND WE SALUTE YOU!!! Should be given an honorary guest spot on the Pro tour for a year - i mean surely if North Korea let them play (and they're not female so St Andrews should be ok with it!?). Here's another funny news interview with them - • Two men pretend to be ...
Seriously, somebody needs to make a movie out of this. Probably film in South Korea though.
Full credit for the interview to Ten's The Project, and you can support their host Carrie Bickmore's excellent Beanies 4 Brain Cancer (seriously awesome beanies too as it turns out) at carriesbeanies4...
This is a non-monetized youtube account.
Rick Astley: Ya Aussies are better than me ~ LOL
They should do a movie out of this. It will be hilarious
sequel to the Interview: Balls in Holes, the extradition
LOL Yeah would be hilarious 🤣🤣
They are the real legends
if they were caught, they would have been accused of being spies. Fake golfing blazers, it would have been execution. Then us Australians here at home would be saying "poor guys" ... totally insane and shouldn't be laughed at.
LOL I remember this ....Was pretty funny LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
they wouldnt be laughing if they were detained in n korea
Turned out to be a big lie. They were on a tour that included a round of golf and made up a story to get their 15 minutes of fame.
now australia is the #1 target for north korean nukes for making a mockery of them...thanks guys hope it was worth it
worm6942 You really think North Korea can nuke Australia? They can't even nuke south korea.
Even North Korea has a sense of humour
we are in range lol
Great story, but not the full truth. An amateur golf tournament they played in. Wearing the jacket could fool anyone that doesn’t easily have access to the internet. The reason I know is because I won it in 2013 with a handicap of 22 and trophy to prove it. Great story though.
Read this, you see who prank who LOL

The reality
So, what really happened?
The Amateur Golf Open at the Pyongyang Golf Complex isn't something the North Korean government puts on. It's an annual event hosted by UK-based tour company Lupine Travel.
You don't have to be a pro. You don't even have to know how to play golf.
All you have to do is book through the tour company and you can take part -- no "duping" required.
It says so right on its website: "Bookings are taken exclusively through British travel agents Lupine Travel."
That would explain why the guys weren't asked any questions. That would also explain why they were wined and dined and taken care of so well. The price of booking includes "breakfast, lunch and dinner each day."
And that would also explain why their photos are so prominently displayed on Lupine's site.
Also, they needn't have bothered with the custom-made jackets. Some played with windbreakers on, and the tournament also included a bride and groom in their wedding outfits.
Yep, they made up a nice big story. Went to school with both of these blokes and it doesn't surprise me that they bullshit their way to 15 minutes of fame.
"Overfed as you can see." Meanwhile the rest of the population are starving. Really funny guys.
+liwylou62 and who's fault is that
Wickedly funny . 😅
This is the stupidest but funniest thing 😂
