Guy Faints After His Mate Pretends To Get Butchered By Chainsaw

Guy Faints After His Mate Pretends To Get Butchered By Chainsaw

He definitely didn't see the funny side of the prank

There's nothing worse than when you're working with power tools and your mate gets an injury. But it's a completely different matter if that same pal tries to pretend that they're getting mercilessly disembowelled by a chainsaw.

Well, that's unfortunately what happened to one man when his friend, Tom Daniel Hansen Sylte, decided that cutting wood was getting a bit boring.

With the sound of the chainsaw raging, Mr Sytle covered his t-shirt in fake blood and dropped to the floor pretending to be injured. But, I bet he wasn't expecting that kind of reaction from his mate, who put his hands to his head and hit the deck fast.

While the camera operator and fake victim are cackling away, their mate can be seen appearing dead himself before Tom reveals it was a joke.

But clearly, he didn't see the funny side, with his feet twitching and pushing Tom away once he gets to his feet.

Since posting the video to Facebook, it's been viewed more than 300,000 times and shared by thousands of people. One user, called Stig, didn't think the video was funny, saying: "Dang what a stupid sense of humour."

He was backed up by another commenter, Harley, who adds: "Not the mate you need around you in times of need."

It seems as though Tom is a bit of a practical joker with his mates. While his buddy was sleeping in a car he placed a small tank in the backseat which exploded loudly.

Another clip shows him electrifying a door handle.

He certainly doesn't seem like the mate you want to have around if you fall asleep or let your guard down. But at least he'd inject a bit of banter into a boring situation.

Sleep with one eye open around this guy.
