YouTube prankster RackaRacka has faced court in Adelaide over a ‘car pool’ stunt that made headlines across the globe.

Michael Philippou, who runs the RackaRacka YouTube channel, was charged over the January 2019 stunt in which he and a team of pranksters modified a Ford Laser into a makeshift ‘swimming pool’.

Philippou drove the vehicle to the Lonsdale pub and took it through the drive-through during a heatwave in Adelaide.

The video went viral and has been viewed more than 1.2 million times on YouTube.
