A Spanish pilot played a cruel prank on Argentina fans aboard a flight by announcing over the PA system that their country had won the World Cup, causing the cabin to erupt in cheers. The incident, captured on video and shared widely online, shows passengers in blue and white stripes jumping from their seats and celebrating wildly, only to be devastated moments later when the pilot revealed it was a joke: Spain had actually won the match.
Pilot's Announcement Sparks Chaos
Many fans on the flight had been unable to watch the game live due to being in the air, leaving the pilot to break the result. He chose to mislead them, announcing Argentina's victory first. The passengers, unaware of the actual match events—including Spain's domination, a red card, and a last-minute goal—celebrated enthusiastically. The pilot then cut the celebrations short, revealing the truth: Spain had won the World Cup.
Reaction and Aftermath
The cheers quickly turned to stunned silence as the reality sank in. The prank was a risky move, given that the real match result had led to on-field scuffles and protests in Argentina. However, according to reports, there was no disorder on the plane. The video has since gone viral, drawing mixed reactions online.
