Street magicians can pull some impressive tricks, but they're always diluted by the fact you know anyone that fresh-faced and eager for attention is up to something. A Japanese prank show solved that problem by giving one a licence to act weird in old public: being an old man.
Hours of special effects aged him by several decades, and he was turned loose on the Japanese public: falling asleep on public transit (to an angle of 30 degrees from horizontal), thumping refreshing drinks out of advertisements, and coughing his own head off.
(Skip to 4:20 in the video to see a crowd of innocent bystanders go from "Oh god I hope that old man doesn't die here" to "HOLY HELL HIS HEAD!")
