There are some pranks where you laugh at the misfortune of celebrities – think Justin Timberlake balling his eyes out back in the day on Punk’d. Then there are some where you think ag shame, that’s a bit of a dick move pranksters. This would fall into the latter category.

The fun starts from about 13:45 in, skip through to that point and watch it all go tits up. Hilton’s full meltdown can be seen from around the 19:30 mark.

Sex video star (and hotel heiress) Paris Hilton was in Dubai for the opening of a new hotel when she was invited for a 15-minute aerial tour of the city with Egyptian actor Ramez Galal. Unbeknownst to her she was walking into a trap organised as part of Galal’s show Ramez in Control and things were about to get pretty intense. Huffington Post reports:

A few minutes after the plane is in the air, the pilot begins doing stunts that make it appear as if the plane is crashing.

In the video, Hilton and the other passengers begin to panic and scream as an alarm goes off and the plane appears to plummet. One passenger opens up the jet’s side door and tosses a man out as Hilton screams “No” and “I don’t want to jump.”

The faked crash footage — which is very disturbing to watch — goes on for more than five minutes as Hilton continues to scream and cry, looking genuinely terrified.

Thankfully the plane is brought down safely and Hilton is then let in on the joke, although she can’t be blamed for telling Galal that she is going to kill him.

If I was Galal I would watch my back, those Hiltons are a powerful bunch and I don’t imagine Paris is the forgiving sort.
