WATCH: Prank sees people trapped in pretend Ikea rooms

Oh Ikea. The land of mass confusion.

AH YLVIS… LONG before they were making songs about animal sounds they were messing with people’s heads in Norway.

In this prank, they trapped people in Ikea by blocking the exit to the pretend rooms in the giant shop.

Watch as the poor confused people try to figure out how other customers are getting in, while they can’t get out.
