Take a look at this picture.

You can see an old man sitting in a wheelchair, snow-white beard and oversized glasses.

The problem is, it’s not an old man.

He’s 32-years-old!

Jayesh Patel disguised himself as an 82-year-old man to trick people at New Delhi’s airport.

He wanted to fly to New York and used a fake passport.

But staff at the airport figured out his disguise.

An officer noticed that while Patel’s hair was white his roots were black and that Patel had the skin of a younger person.

Patel also avoided the officer’s eyes.

Upon further questioning, Patel admitted he was a 32-year-old.

Patel was detained and handed over to immigration authorities.
