KAKE News has obtained airport surveillance video of an apparent prank in progress that caught Mid-Continent Airport officials off guard and has them reviewing their policies to prevent something similar from happening again.
Airport officials tell us that they were contacted last month by a group of people who claimed they were from Germany and wanted to do some filming inside the airport lobby. They said the filming would be for a documentary on American culture.
When they arrived at the airport last Friday, they were shown around and eventually allowed to begin filming. However, once the tape started rolling, the "actors" began taking off their clothes and dancing around provocatively.
Mid-Continent Airport administration says security was never compromised and they admit that they were clearly duped.
A local church was also nearly taken advantage of. Central Community Church on West Maple invited the same crew to film its Living Last Supper last week.
At the church, security video shows the group tearing masking tape which would eventually be used to cover survielance cameras. A little later, video shows a group of men escorting a man towards a set of theater doors. One of the pastors at the church saw the group and a man who was "Biblically" dressed, wearing chains. Suspicious, he immediately locked the theater doors and stopped the prank from happening. The film crew abruptly left the church.
Many are speculating that all of this may be part of a "Borat"-type movie sequel that is scheduled to come out soon. The people involved in the pranks say they work for a company called Longmont Park out of California. However, the film company says it does not currently have a crew working in Wichita.
