Punked in the Data Center

How would you react if a visitor to your data center took out a pair of scissors and cut through an Ethernet cable? Even better: How would your company's director of engineering react?

Watch this video for the drama and then check out the explanation of how the trick was executed. This video runs about 2 minutes, 20 seconds.
