The key to a truly epic prank is getting a large audience, and playing on their deepest drives. Which is why this page has such a perfect title for an Internet article. Unknown electronic pranksters hacked video billboards along one of Moscow's busiest roads and achieved the impossible: loaded them with videos people actually wanted to see.
Of course it was porn.

We'll try anything for publicity (except what the girl we're blocking is doing)
Did we mention that this was on the Garden Ring Road, one of the Russian capital's primary arteries?

Pranksters don't normally get to deface things on this scale
Thousands of motorists, apparently unaware of the existence of the Internet, slowed to a crawl to watch car-sized breasts bounce on the giant screen. Rereading that sentence, we realize we can't blame them. Those who wish to see the technically NSFW video may do so here, but be warned: as a five second video of a Russian billboard filmed on a cellphone from several hundred meters and at least one major road away, it's probably the least accessible porn on the entire Internet.
And now the link: http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5jmWbKayz-vOt1Hh5YDih127QJVrw

"Traffic jerked to a standstill"
...and then proceeded to jerk it to something else.

Another meaning to the phrase, "redirecting flow to other major arteries," perhaps?

Just because you said it, doesn't make it true.
