2 Australian pranksters pose as pro golfers in North Korea

AUSTRALIA -- Two crafty Australian men posed as professional golfers to compete in a golf tournament in the secretive nation of North Korea.

And they got away with it.

Morgan Ruig and Evan Shay tricked North Korean authorities into believing they were the official Australian golf team.

The 28-year-olds even had blazers made to look the part.

It quickly became clear during the competition that their skills were not up to par.

The pranksters were also given chaperoned trips around the capital city of Pyongyang.

The pair was very lucky to make it out of the country.

North Korea has been known to detain foreigners who sneak across its borders.
