Microsoft founder Bill Gates was at the TED Conference and this was no prank he pulled.

The 58 year old philanthropist was actually trying to prove a point about the deadly disease malaria.

He released a glass full of mosquitoes at TED Conference when he was on stage.

Bill added, “Malaria is spread by mosquitoes. I brought some. Here I’ll let them roam around. There is no reason only poor people should be infected.”

Funny guy eh.
