WATCH: Tom Daley goes deep undercover at the airport, confusion ensues

Foreign airpots can be rather difficult to navigate, especially when you run into a celebrity Olympian masquerading as a British Airways attendant.

And particularly when he gives you suspect advice in your moment of legitimate travel stress.

If we had a nickel for every time we fall for that, we wouldn’t have to empty our pockets going through security. They’d almost certainly be empty.

The same can’t be said for the unsuspecting folk who approached the British diving sensation and ended up in one of those Twilight Zone moments.

One man even takes a look at Tom and says, “Have you ever been told you look like Tom Daley?”

“Never heard of him,” replies Tom, doing an admirable job refraining from bursts of laughter.

The whole stunt was done to raise attention for Red Nose Day, which takes place March 24 as a UK-wide fundraising event organized by Comic Relief every two years.

Emma Bunton (aka Baby Spice) and David Walliams (BBC radio and comic personality) also tried their hands at confusing travelers.
