Groom pranked by friends with fake bungee jump - video

A groom-to-be has appeared in a new viral video being subjected to an impressive stag prank.

The man - known as Kokovtsov - is seen blindfolded after being told that he is going to bungee jump 50 feet from the ground.

However, unknown to the groom he is only 3 feet above a pond.



Cheered on by his friends, he finally manages to find the courage to take the leap of faith while blindfolded, before instantly splashing into the shallow water underneath him.

He is congratulated for taking the jump, and is able to see the funny side of the prank by laughing upon his return from the water.

The video has been viewed over 2 million times on YouTube since it was uploaded last Monday (May 14).

An Australian woman's accident was filmed when she survived her bungee rope snapping over the Zambezi River back in January.
