Be warned: The International Spy Museum in D.C. is a total troll.

If you haven't already seen it, there's a shark exhibit in the museum, which has become well known in the past few years for briefly terrifying those who are easily scared.

In the exhibit, there's a screen that's supposed to look like an aquarium, with a sign that reads, "touch at your own risk" above it. when you touch the glass, it triggers a fake shark that then comes charging at the glass, cracking it when it makes contact.

People have been falling for it for years, but this dude's reaction may be the best yet.
