These Guys Made A Magic Carpet And Took It Around New York

All he needs is a genie.

Every Halloween, you're bound to see at least one guy dressed up like Aladdin. Some sport the baggy pants and purple vest, others pose in photos with Princess Jasmine, but all of them wish they had a magic carpet as cool as the one in the video above.

YouTubers Casey Neistat and Jesse Wellens took the streets of New York City by storm on Thursday when they transformed an electric skateboard into a custom "flying carpet" for their channel Prank vs. Prank.

Of course, it isn't every day you see a man dressed like Aladdin flying down a busy New York City street on a carpet, so hearing pedestrians squeal with delight isn't that surprising. What threw us were the people who seemed completely unfazed by it. It's a flying carpet, guys! No one is too cool for that!

What do you think, is this the coolest costume ever? Let us know in the comments below.
