A holidaymaker has been filmed climbing into the back of a speed camera and flashing passers-by with his phone.
The brazen stunt was captured in the early hours of Thursday morning outside the Lyons Winkups Holiday Park in North Wales.
John Westlake, 38, had spotted the speed camera while waiting for a takeaway pizza nearby.
He said he thought it would be "a funny way of killing some time" while he and his wife, Sarah-Jane, waited for their food, NorthWalesLive reports.
The video, which has been seen more than 17,000 times on Facebook, shows him flashing passing vehicles with his mobile phone while sat inside the camera's casing.
Cars can be seen falling for the prank as they slow down after being flashed.
The prankster said: "We were waiting outside for our pizzas when I noticed a hole in the back of the speed camera.
"At that point, I thought it would be a funny way of killing some time to climb up and flash the passing cars to see if they'd slow down."
The couple, from Wirral, was on holiday at the caravan park with their two youngest children and John's mother at the time.
Once inside the speed camera, John says that he began to flash "everyone who was going past, not just people in the cars".
He said: "I flashed one person who went by in a mobility scooter and told them to slow down.
"I just took a run-up and managed to climb in. I was quite surprised the next day, when I saw the speed camera, that I had managed it to be honest.
The couple says they have received many messages and friend requests since posting the video, which is threatening to go viral.
He added: "We were just having a laugh really. Every car I flashed slowed down afterwards - it kept us entertained when we were waiting for our food.
"I think people relate to it because no one likes speed cameras."
