    You might think you’ve pulled off a good prank or two in your time, but you’re not in the same league as Oobah Butler.

    He’s the guy who managed to turn his garden shed into the number one ranked restaurant in London on TripAdvisor, a stunt which went viral right around the world.

    Hot off the back of that, he went on to dupe people at Paris Fashion Week, proving how daft the whole affair really is.

    He’s now enjoying a sustained period of media attention, but that doesn’t mean he actually has to bother doing it himself.

But can he get away with it?

    Well, let’s see if he can:
