Director: Elmo De Witt

Comedy

In this hidden‑camera comedy, Leon Schuster disguises himself and stages a series of short pranks across South Africa, duping unsuspecting members of the public. Highlights include a “watermelon pulse test” that claims a fruit is ripe when it has no heartbeat, cooking a meal on a car’s bonnet to irritate traffic police, and a staged “cow‑killing” scene in a butcher’s shop, all delivered in Schuster’s trademark slap‑stick style.
