Joker in a T-Rex costume sparks panic on street as terrified pedestrians fall over

This is the moment people are sent fleeing in terror from a T-Rex prowling the street. 

Footage shows a man in a cap and trainers running down the high street as startled people move out of his path. 

The man in the cap darts past a barber’s shop on the corner of the road as pedestrians look to see what he is running from. 

Seconds later a joker in a T-Rex costume emerges from around the corner of the high street causing startled shoppers to move out of the way. 

The video shows one man fall flat onto his face as the unexpected ‘dinosaur’ makes its way down the street.

The video by the Instagram prankster based in London and known as Goutube posted the clip last night which has since received 2.2million views on Twitter. 

Followers of the account were quick to comment on the hilarious footage describing it as comedy ‘gold’.
