Kimmel continued to poke fun at the reaction to his stunt, sarcastically suggesting that it may have been part of a massive conspiracy theory.
"Who knows how deep this goes. Maybe I don't even exist. Maybe what you know as Jimmy Kimmel is just a mannequin head on top of a bunch of raccoons."
But don't worry, Kimmel promised he'd never prank anyone again, which he said with a smirk.
