YouTube sensation Jake Paul has been involved in a lot of pranks over the years.

The prank was on Nelk Boys member Aaron Steinberg aka Steiny and also involved fellow team member Kyle Forgeard. In the video, Forgeard explained that Rose would flirt with Steiny while Paul would catch him red-handed and pick a fight with him. “So I think we’re headed to Jake Paul’s party. I think his girl Julia Rose is gonna talk to Steiny, and Jakes’s gonna get pissed and pin Steiny against the wall. He’s gonna s**t himself” said Forgeard.

Paul then revealed that Rose was in on the prank and would flirt with Steiny. “I got Julia ready. She’s already in on it Julia is gonna go up to Steiny and flirt with him. I’m gonna tell her to be subtle. I’m gonna be like yo bro, You’re just gonna flirt with my girl right in front of me. We love to Steiny. sorry bro but f**k you also.” said Paul.

I weigh 175, you weigh 165. We can get that done, make a couple $100 million.” He said.
