A costly pizza prank
A teenager has been awarded £1,000 in damages after his cousin superglued a takeaway pizza box to his head.
Gregor Bowman, 19, took his cousin George Storrie to court on reality court TV show Judge Rinder, hosted by 2 Hare Court's criminal barrister, Robert Rinder.
The prank, which was captured by a mutual friend, left a bald patch on the victim's head and has amassed more than 75,000 views on the internet.
Speaking on the ITV show, Storrie admitted: 'I ate the contents of the munchie box and then I glued it to his head.'
The victim of the prank, Bowman, explained: 'My girlfriend Chloe had to rip it off my head and it left a bald patch. Kyle [Burns] then put it on Facebook.'
Small claims judge Rinder branded Storrie a 'moron' and ordered the perpetrator to pay his cousin £1,000 for last October's incident.
He said Bowman had suffered 'personal injury' and 'reputational damage'.
Storrie, however, was unremorseful following the verdict, saying: 'I'm not happy with the outcome. He got let off lightly because the plan was to superglue his finger to the dog's arse but I ended up feeling sorry for the dog. The next time he falls asleep it will be a lot worse.'
With family like that…
