One of the creepiest and most fascinating things you can ever go out and see figures at a wax museum. It’s simply incredible how realistic they are able to make these things l0ok! This macabre attraction came about in the Middle Ages when they used wax funeral effigies of royalty as well as some other notable public figures by their tombs. Back in those days, it was customary for a corpse to ride fully dressed on top of a coffin on its way to royal funerals. However, sometimes certain conditions such as hot weather made necessitated the use of a was figure to replace the corpse.
In the beginning, they only made the head and hands for the royal corpses, as the rest of their body could be made of anything to create their shape. However, soon these wax figures became big tourist attractions prompting the use of more elaborate wax figures. One of the oldest and most famous wax museums in the world is Madame Tussauds, opened in London, England, in 1835. By the late 19th century, you could find commercial wax museums in most large cities. For most folks, this would be the closest they could come to ever seeing a famous person. And after Jimmy Kimmel was honored by Madame Tussauds, who made him an ultra-realistic wax figure, the talk show host couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than to use his wax figure to terrorize his staff.

In the video, we see Kimmel’s people placing the wax figure around various parts of the office, such as the front desk, the hallway, and even in the breakroom. However, soon it became clear that Jimmy had one target in particular in mind, his cousin Micki. And throughout the video, we see her completely lose it almost every time she runs into Jimmy’s wax figure. At one point, they place it in her office, and she freaks out so badly she drops her phone. But, the best was saved for last, as Jimmy decided to take it to the next level by standing in for his wax figure, which by then his cousin had already gotten somewhat used to seeing. As she laughs and tries to take a selfie with “wax figure” Jimmy, she gets the shock of her life when the real Kimmel turns toward her.
