Arnold Schwarzenegger Pranks Unsuspecting Fans In Hilarious ‘Terminator’ Promo 

He said he’d be back, but Arnold Schwarzenegger’s latest appearance still took fans by surprise.

The action star and former California governor gave Hollywood tourists quite a jolt when he posed as his own wax figure at Madame Tussauds famous museum. A video released Thursday follows Schwarzenegger as he pranks visitors observing what they assumed was a “Terminator” exhibit, only to watch the display suddenly come to life.

In the clip, Schwarzenegger also roams the streets of Los Angeles dressed as the iconic T-800 robot, complete with his signature shades and leather jacket, repeating classic lines from the sci-fi franchise and posing for pictures.

The stunt was performed in support of Schwarzenegger’s After School All-Stars charity and, of course, the upcoming release of “Terminator Genisys,” the latest big-budget installment in the dystopian series.

Come with Schwarzenegger if you want to live – as long as he doesn’t scare the daylights out of you first.
