It’s not quite done to death at this point, ala the Ice Bucket Challenge (rest in peace), but we’ll call the “Wax Figure Prank” a well-established trope.
Like this bit featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger as a 60-year-old Terminator…
Or this…
Or this…
Anyways.. Sergio Garcia, Adam Scott and Ernie Els, off the coast of Malaysia for the Singapore Open, were at Madam Tussaud’s for a photoshoot. And because #viralvideo, somebody decided the trio (plus wax Tiger Woods) ought to do the ole wax prank.
Here’s the result, per Sky “Hell no, you can’t embed our videos” Sports.

Now, a few tips for producing this type of video, SkySports: Here in ‘Murica, we do multiple takes of our pranks and cut the best ones together. Also, just like his attempts to win a major, Sergio Garcia half-asses the scare.
Bad choice for lead frightener. Should’ve gone with Scotty.
Also, can you imagine if wax Tiger Woods would have been a robot and started fist-pumping or something to scare the pros? Now that would have been a prank.
