D-1’s Crazy Taxi Prank Again: This Time With Cops!
I think that D-1 might just have been the highpoint of the hidden-camera prank genre. Sure, we’ve had some contenders over the years but there just aren’t many other shows that would do something so horrible to someone as D-1 does to the man in this clip.
In other words, if you thought the first Crazy Taxi video was insane, you’ve seen nothing yet. I personally would like to know how they (the producers) could get away with impersonating police officers.
TViJ reader Charlie (DBSboy from YouTube) has informed me that there is a third episode to this series in which the entrapment happens on an airplane. If anyone has that or knows of where I can get that, I would dub thee a Knight of TV in Japan.
Man. . . with a friend like Endo. . .
I think by saying “the man in this clip” you’re downplaying so much of the humor involved. Half of what makes this hilarious is that it’s Tanaka from Cocorico.
And that it happened to him twice.

[...] The videos I have for you this week are pretty cool. The first video (Warning: Really Bad Language.) is a great explanation of Hollywood by Kevin Smith. The second video is of some great stunt work done in Japan. [...]
