Not many things are funnier than watching a celebrity being Tricked, and Ben Hanlin does a great job with Towie's Bobby Norris.
Believing he is filming a segment on Brighton for This Morning, Bobby has to lob a giant beachball to a guy dressed in a seagull outfit on the pier.
What he doesn't know is that it is magician and serial prankster Hanlin inside the outfit.
On his second attempt at throwing the beachball, the Towie star throws too hard and the seagull loses his balance, falling backwards over the pier and down into the sea below.
Bobby is of course horrified and speechless - and it's very funny.
Tricked airs tonight (October 13) at 9pm on ITV2.

Poor old Matthew Wolfenden has been made to watch his Emmerdale co-star Natalie Anderson seemingly plunge to her doom, all in the name of entertainment.
The Alicia Metcalfe actress took part in the stunt for ITV2 show Tricked, as revenge for Wolfenden constantly teasing her.

The David Metcalfe actor was told that he and Anderson had been asked to present a feature about family days out for ITV's This Morning.

An undercover Ben Hanlin deceived Louie Spence for the second episode of Tricked.
The magician posed as a director while Spence spent the day on a yacht, believing he was fronting a newspaper competition.
Spence was asked to stand by the side of the yacht, holding a case containing what he thought to be £100,000.
As the dancer posed with the case, it opened and sent the money into the ocean.
Hanlin asked a shocked Spence, "Are you okay just to say you did it? Is that alright?"
"Well I did do it, but it wasn't my fault," he retorted.
"I'm not going to be responsible for, how much went in there? It looks like about bleeding ten grand. I'm not going to give you bleeding ten grand."
"Well, it's a 100 grand," Hanlin told Spence.
A panicking Spence said: "You must be joking darling, I've just got a mortgage. You're not getting 100 grand out of me.

Ben Hanlin gets naked for Coronation Street stars Brooke Vincent and Amy Kelly in tonight's episode of Tricked.
The magician claims he has been dared to perform naked on Twitter - although he does at least have balloons to cover his private parts.
That doesn't stop Vincent from blushing, as she says: "I've actually gone really red."
Hanlin decides to play a game with Vincent, asking which celebrity she would replace him with if she could. For everything he gets incorrect, she's given the honour of popping one of the strategically-placed balloons.
Hanlin incorrectly suggests that the star is American and an actor, leaving just the all-important crotch balloon intact.
However, when he says that Vincent is thinking of Olly Murs, she tells him she is actually dreaming of Prince Harry - and nervously pops the last balloon.
But in a shock move, the final balloon is not just covering...

Tricked has been renewed for a second series by ITV2.
The hidden camera show follows magician Ben Hanlin as he tricks members of the public and celebrities.
Hanlin - who in the last series terrified Helen Flanagan, convinced Blue that Simon Webbe had fallen off a cliff and made Stacey Solomon think she was in a cage with a gorilla - will pose as barmen, shopkeepers and market stallholders to pull off his new tricks.
In the new series, some of the tricks include helping a bride trick her wedding party by ruining the ceremony and helping someone get revenge by convincing their friend they've won a Ferrari - only to transform it into their old car.
ITV's Angela Jain said: "The first series of Tricked showed the versatility and enduring appeal of magic and Ben's hidden camera stunts have paved the way for a new breed of magic shows.
