“It was a prank, a simple prank”: an American prankster was shot in the liver right during filming
The unwitting participant in the "prank" did not understand the humor and fired in the stomach of the rising YouTube star.
Tanner Cook is a 21-year-old blogger with over 40,000 subscribers on his channel. He plays pranks on random people on the street: either he pretends to be sick in a taxi, or he sticks to people in a supermarket. Pretty cheeky guy. Was.

Cook filmed another prank in a Dallas mall. He played with Google's auto-translator - asking people questions and holding the phone right up to their faces. One of the passers-by did not like it and he asked to stop stupid jokes. The boy chuckled and continued.
Then the citizen took out a pistol and shot Cook in the stomach.
The bullet pierced the stomach and liver, he was rushed to the hospital and underwent surgery. I had to have my gallbladder removed. Now he is recovering, the doctors and his parents hope that he will get better.
“It was a prank, a simple prank. The guy just didn’t understand the joke and shot me,” a blogger from the hospital ward commented on the situation.
And the shooter was detained on the spot, he faces a serious sentence. Investigators even talk about some "aggravating circumstances", but they do not specify the details.
Well, the boy's father said that he forgives the peasant, but he hopes for fair justice. And he added that after the incident, he received several messages on the Internet on the topic of what his son needed, and it is a pity that he was not sent to the next world.
