This video (on YouTube) raises a long-standing question of the liability for stupid pranks. This woman is clearly and understandably traumatized by what appears a well-orchestrated prank by what appears to be a television show, She clearly did not consent and is clearly harmed emotionally by the prank.
The most obvious torts would be intentional infliction of emotional distress as well as trespass to chattel (for the car). There is also negligence. I cannot imagine why anyone would think it would be funny to have anyone, let alone a masked individual, in the car of a woman alone at night.
