  ## Plot

The crew of stuntmen and pranksters have to perform 11 commandments (which are like tasks or tests). These tasks include:
  
  * Being a "wall", while Djibril Cissé strikes footballs into them

  * Converting a villa into a swimming pool by blocking all the exits and flooding it

  * Recreating a medieval duel while riding airplane staircases
  * Delivering pizza with a surprise - the surprise being an instant party of around 50 people
  * Riding completely nude mocking a romantic video clip
  * Performing ballet in zero gravity
  * Ruining a van by eating junk food and proceeding to clean it up by filling it with foam
  * Playing the bagpipes while riding an ostrich
