Sam Pepper Shocks No One By Admitting His Pranks Were 'Fake'

Sam Pepper has finally revealed that all of his 'pranks' were staged.

In a bizarre turn of events, he's deleted nearly every trace of his online existence over the past few days.

It seems that he's finally felt some kind of remorse for his actions, which included a prank where he pinched the bums of random women, and a staged kidnap and ISIS-style execution of a lad's best friend.

But apparently, they were all fake. So it's fine.

Hmm.

Fair enough. If he's genuinely sorry and he really does want to use his massive platform (two million subscribers on YouTube) to put out good, genuine content, then fine.

I'm not here to judge.

But I also won't be watching it.
