Arnold Schwarzenegger pranks fans for charity

He said he’d be back, and he wasn’t lying.

To help promote his new Terminator Genisys movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger brilliantly terrorized the streets of Hollywood.

First Schwarzenegger pranked fans at the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum by standing so perfectly still that no one would assume that he was anything other than his wax counterpart.

“He looks real,” said one woman posing with what she thought was a Schwarzenegger wax figure.

“That’s because I am,” the actor said as he ‘came to life,’ causing the woman to literally jump back.

But she was far from the only one.

As he took a picture with a young boy, he turned to him and said, “No touching.”

Naturally, the boy ran away as quickly as his feet would allow him.

The people seeking photos weren’t the only ones getting pranked, however – the cameramen were too.

“You want to come in the shot, too?” he asked a woman who was taking the photo, with his hand reached out.

She ran away, proving that ‘flight’ is the more popular approach than ‘fight.’

Schwarzenegger also took to Hollywood Boulevard, a place notorious for having people impersonate cinema’s most recognizable faces, and spotted a man dressed up as Terminator taking pictures with a crowd of girls.

As we know, there’s only one true Terminator, and so Schwarzenegger decided to reclaim his territory.

“Who are you?” Schwarzenegger asked the imposter.

But even in the face of the ex-governor, the play-actor did not break out of character. “I am the Terminator, who are you?” he asked back.

“I’m the Terminator. I’m the T-800,” Schwarzenegger replied without hesitation.

The two had a stare-down while crowds of people watched in awe.

The prank was a part of an effort to benefit the charity ‘After-School All Stars’ which Schwarzenegger encouraged viewers to enter over at Omaze.
