Old Video Going Viral Again Shows M’sians Falling for Fake Cristiano Ronaldo Prank

Have you guys noticed this one video of ‘Cristiano Ronaldo’ in Malaysia going viral online?

If you have, take a closer look and ask yourselves, is that really the legendary Portuguese footballer?

The TikTok page, Fans Cristiano Ronaldo, recently shared a video of what appears to be Cristiano Ronaldo out and about in Kuala Lumpur. But, quite quickly it becomes apparent that the person in the video is not CR7.

They sarcastically wrote, “Cristiano Ronaldo visiting Malaysia.”

In the video, the fake ‘Cristiano’ could be seen arriving at KLCC, where he immediately attracted a large crowd of people who thought he was the real deal. People even started chanting “Ronaldo… Ronaldo…”.

The large crowd only kept getting bigger as they followed him around the mall with their phones trained on him, and even when he was outside at the park area.

He soon switched places to Bukit Bintang, where he received the same attention from the public.

Well, we’ve managed to get to the bottom of it and the person in the video is Saki, a football freestyler and Cristiano Ronaldo double.

He was invited to Malaysia to prank the general public by the LETZUPLOADIT YouTube page in January 2020.
