“Trump wanted to really throw the book at me, and the Scottish police convinced him not to press charges.

“Who wants to get waterboarded by the CIA when you can have an Irn Bru in the back of a police van?

“I was in there for ages with the coppers, and it felt more like I was on a stag do than anything else. They drove me to the airport and put me on a plane back to London and told Trump and his team I was deported.”

He had previously embarrassed people like former UK Prime Minister Theresa May, ex-FIFA boss Sepp Blatter, and rapper Kanye West.

But Nelson also admitted that not everyone is fair game when it comes to pranking.
