Google staff is sure known for their innovation and quirky ideas. And they do not restrict the ideas just to the conference rooms or board meets. The sure have a funny bone too and are not afraid of some quirky humour.

Google employees modified co-founder Sergey Brin's electric Tesla Model S as an April Fool's Day joke on their boss. The car was converted into a hot pink Batmobile complete with the Batman logo and wings!

The pranksters are part of Google's X project division, famous for producing the most innovative and path-breaking Google products and software. The employees who are currently working on Google Glass decided to convert their boss' car into a present-day advanced gadget.

The car was first wrapped in bright pink vinyl cover (to prevent lasting damage and also add to the joke) and was then elaborately worked up on. A huge Batman logo was stuck on the hood of the car with extra-long lashes at the car's headlights. The tires came with massive rims with the Google Chrome logos in the middle. The batmobile also boasts of protruding, rear bat-wings!

How did Sergey Brin take the joke? The boss too has a good sense of humour and even took the modified car for a spin!
