Infamous BBC prankster Daniel Jarvis managed to break into the Olympics closing ceremony on Sunday night while dressed as a member of the Team GB squad.
Jarvis, who goes by ‘Jarvo69’ on social media, has made a name for himself by pulling off pranks at major sporting events in the past.
And the self-proclaimed ‘Greatest Prankster on Earth’ has seemingly pulled off his biggest stunt yet by appearing at the Olympics closing ceremony.
The entire world watched on Sunday night as the Olympics came to a close with Team GB ending the Games with an impressive 65 games.

Alex Yee and Bryony Page led the British contingent out as they wore a distinctive Hawaiian shirt with a multi-colour floral pattern.
And Jarvis managed to nab himself the exact same shirt before slipping into the Stade de France and onto the main stage.
The prankster uploaded a short video on social media of him walking on the big stage alongside real Olympians.
His caption read: “Yes I blagged my way into the Olympics closing ceremony, dressed as a @TeamGB athlete! I miss the Olympic”.
Jarvis then took it one step further as he managed to catch a selfie with French president Emmanuel Macron.
He wrote: “Me and Macron after sneaking into the Olympics!
“It’s far from Jarvis’ first foray into major events as he caused havoc at Cheltenham earlier this year when he managed to work his way into the winners’ enclosure while dressed in the green and gold colours of horse owner J.P. McManus.

But his most famous exploits were interrupting BBC’s live coverage of Liverpool’s FA Cup tie against Wolves with sex noises being played in the studio.
Gary Lineker and co were left red-faced as they struggled to find the source of the noise.
A bewildered Lineker said during the coverage: “I don’t know who’s making that noise.”
