Spanish tennis ace Rafael Nadal reportedly tested his bluffing skills in a hilarious helicopter prank, scaring would-be passengers.

Nadal, who has been sidelined with a wrist injury as of late, was challenged by the folks over at PokerStars to test his poker bluffing game and he gave some unsuspecting travellers the ride of their lives, Fox News reported.

The 14-time Grand Slam title winner posed as a novice helicopter pilot chartered to fly couples over the Spanish island of Majorca.

The passengers were initially pleased to see Nadal, nicknamed 'The King of Clay' for being regarded as the finest red clay court player of all time, in the cockpit.

But, their excitement soon turned into abject, terrifying fear when the unwitting riders soon discovered that Nadal had no idea what he was doing, the report added.
