WATCH: Rob Kearney pranks car salesmen - with a little help from his friends

Fair play to Kearney - he gets into it, gleefully announcing he is a shark and a tiger, with accompanying impressions.

Ireland rugby star Rob Kearney shows off an impish sense of humour in this YouTube clip - taking great pleasure in baffling and unnerving two unsuspecting car salesman sent out on a test drive with him.

What the men don’t know is that the car is fitted with hidden cameras and wired for sound, and Kearney is taking directions from RTE’s Aidan Power and international team mates Peter O’Mahony and Robbie Henshaw.

O’Mahony and Henshaw take great pleasure in directing Kearney - encouraging him to argue with the sat-nav, imitate Conor McGregor and spend waaaay too long on a roundabout.

Fair play to Kearney - he gets into it, gleefully announcing he is a shark and a tiger, with accompanying impressions.

The salesmens’ nervous laughter is replaced by stunned silence and sideways looks, as the player encourages them to join him in the impressions and threatens to beat up Brian O’Driscoll.

Well played all round!
