Apparently a little amateur astronomy can go a long way. On March 21, 2009, Ralf Vandebergh, sitting in his backyard, pointed his 10 inch telescope at the sky and "saw a few bright pixels appear precisely where the work was going on at exactly the moment it was being conducted." A few bright pixels = an astronaut!

Make a CGI jackass Virtual reality program (really just a video). Tell the person putting on the helmet that it seems so real that they'll feel it. In the video have the characters come up to the person and kick him in the balls and other stuff. While the video does this one of the crew will kick the victim in real life.

Then, he actually did it (and, yes, it was gnarly).

In a follow-up to Terror Taxi, Ehren would be singled out to perform some kind of "stunt" or "prank" . . . which everyone is in on except for him. They get him setup in wardrobe and makeup and when it is time to do his hair, the stylist pulls out a bottle of hair gel.

The hair person applies it then sits him under one of those giant helmet things you would see in a 1970s Beauty...
