The Snow Labyrinth Prank A video

The most powerful pranks are those that understand an obvious little fact, and use it to control people's behavior more powerfully than a hypnotist holding their children hostage. For example: people hate getting their feet wet, so they'd prefer to walk on a path, instead of through thick snow.
No matter where that path goes.\
The shortest distance between two points is a what?
This Polish prank turns selfless behavior into endless entertainment: one man with a snow shovel clears a vast, winding path full of switchbacks and angles, ending in a loop. It doesn't actually go anywhere, and people are so programmed for pathfinding they'll not only walk all the way down -- when they get there, and get annoyed, they'll turn around and walk back up the path rather than cut straight across. So every time someone complains about being scammed, show them this video and they'll admit "Yeah, we humans probably deserve it."
There has to be a faster way
We don't know what's at the bottom of this hill, but people are so intent on getting there it must be the fountain of youth or an Apple launch.
What I always wanted to do was to create a large maze out of snow and while people are going through it, create new walls and knock down others, maybe even get some people trapped in a closed loop. Could also be done with a snow covered hedge maze, at least it wouldn't need as much show.
