Airport officials in Bromma, Sweden weren't laughing when a local comedy TV show pulled a stunt and tried to check in a suitcase that had a dwarf inside of it on Wednesday. I'm assuming this would be the Swedish version of MTV's Jackass although Wee-Man was not involved as the picture might suggest. The local police were called when the dwarf leaped out of the suitcase at ticket counter and startled everyone. It was soon realized that the entire stunt was being filmed with hidden cameras by for the comedy show on private Swedish TV network Kanal 5 (tune that one in). Mats Eriksson, a police spokesman, told the AP that the airport staff did not file charges although they were "shocked and humiliated" by the event. Of course Kanal 5 spokesman Dan Panas said the stunt was intended to be "provocative and entertaining." Their intention was not to make fun of dwarfs, but entertain with "extreme situations." Original idea there.(Fox News)
