This is the moment the world’s hottest weather girl Yanet Garcia screams in fright after her co-presenter sneaks up behind her and shouts in her ear.

The Mexican stunner presents the weather on the daytime TV show ‘Hoy’ (‘Today’) where her colleague Mauricio Mancera, 35, crept up behind the brunette and intentionally scared her.

Mancera filmed himself pranking the 28-year-old star, who has an army of 8.9 million Instagram followers and is considered one of the most influential Latin women on the internet.

According to Mancera, he arrived for a meeting that was running 10 minutes late and spooked the weather girl while she was rehearsing her lines.

In the footage, uploaded to YouTube and viewed over 256,000 times, Mancera is seen sneaking up on Garcia – dubbed the ‘world’s hottest weather girl’ by international media – as she quietly sits on a sofa by herself.

He shouts her name into her ear with force and the beautiful Mexican screams as though she had just seen a ghost.

She then casts a forced smile at the camera, seemingly unimpressed by the practical joke.

Garcia recently ‘went green’ in a viral social media post that showed the curvy stunner leaping through the air in tight emerald-coloured Lycra.

In the photo, the 28-year-old is seen jumping for joy in a pair of green trainers, Lycra bottoms and a skimpy sports top.

The gym-crazy brunette smiles as she shows off her famously toned backside and big boobs – the only part of her body that Garcia has admitted to surgically enhancing.

Even the leafy background is colour-coordinated with her green getup and Garcia accompanied the uplifting post with the message: “Never stop dreaming.”
