Weatherman Pranked - Henry DiCarlo Laughs About It.

Weatherman pranked - KTLA TV weatherman Henry DiCarlo was tricked into wishing a Happy Birthday to a fictional 10-year old boy, watch the video below.

Pranksters got one over on DiCarlo as the on-air personality for the local Los Angeles TV station was giving his usual TV shout-outs for birthdays and while reading off the names came across a young boy named "Hugh Janus."

Phonetically that would be "huge anus" and that is just how DiCarlo reads it off.

After his shout out to the boy with the strange name an anchor starts to lose it, trying unsuccessfully to squelch his laughter.

"Sorry, sorry," he says. "I think it was one of those trick names and you fell for it," the anchor said through uncontrollable giggling.

"Oh, I totally fell for it, didn't I? I think you're right. … Wow, I got punked," DiCarlo said, letting loose with laughter.

"Hopefully there's not a 10-year-old really with that name out there," he added.

Indeed.

Watch below - local TV at it's finest.
