A performer dons a getup that allows him to go unnoticed as he sits on a chair

Comedian and magician Rich Ferguson has devised a simple and hilarious prank that I can definitely see myself falling for.

After making himself blend in with a chair at the Kreuzberg Cafe in San Luis Obispo, he gets to see customers' reactions when they sit on him.

The harmless prank makes up in the quality of the props what it lacks in complexity and concept. People of all ages come in and get startled, and they all leave with a smile on their face. Some even bring their family and friends back for a scare, according to the video description.

The performer's getup is very convincing, and you cannot tell that there is something off with the chair right away.

The only thing that could tip off the victims is the added weight of the chair, as some try moving it, but none of the marks questions it.
