He's behind you! David Beckham came
across an unphased and extremely cheeky fan during his recent visit to
the Padam Jyoti School, in Bhaktapur, Nepal, after kicking off his epic
world tour for a new BBC programme
Clearly
tickled by the joker's interruption, David added the caption: 'Bunny
ears are the same everywhere in the world @UNICEF #loveofthegame'.
David,
a well-known lover of social media, looked to be having a wonderful
time in the image as he posed with three grinning school children -
before they were met with an uninvited photo subject.
A
prankster jumped behind the former Manchester United star and raised
two fingers to look like bunny's ears - a classic trick to pull on
somebody posing for a picture.
In another shot, a grinning David yet again beamed while he was joined by his new Nepalese pals for a cute picture.

head
In
the images, the sports star honoured the local religion - Hinduism - by
wearing a bindi, or tilaka, on his forehead, while earlier in the day
he sported a Nepali Dhaka topi hat.
David's
new BBC show, entitled Love Of The Game, David will visit seven
countries and play seven games with the locals in each region, as he
explores the impact of the sport in all walks of life.
He
arrived in the South Asian nation earlier this week after first of all
visiting Papau New Guinea in order to get the tour rolling - and got
straight to it as he enjoyed a kickabout with local youths.

After arriving by rickshaw, David met with the students, who had lined up to greet their hero.
He
was put through his paces by the delighted students of the school -
which was damaged in the devastating earthquake that hit the country in
April.
His face was later painted crimson - the national colour of Nepal - while a garland of marigolds was thrust around his neck.
The youngsters looked thrilled as he went down the line, shaking their hands and enjoying a chat, before they started the game.

Thrilling the fans: The presence of the sporting legend clearly thrilled his young fans
The
match in which he took part was also a charity game: while being filmed
for the BBC documentary, it was also held to raise money for the United
Nations' Children's Fund.
It's
an ambitious journey for the father-of-four as he prepares to find out
more about the passion that links the various locations, going from
Papau New Guinea to the foothills of Nepal, the streets of Buenos Aires,
the deserts of Djibouti to the elevated pitches of Miami.
After
his globe-trotting ways, which will see him meet people from all walks
of life, David will end the journey at Old Trafford in Manchester, where
his career began.
Getting involved: David showed off his skills to his new Nepalese teammates and opponents
Respectful: David made sure he honoured the local religion by sporting a Nepali Dhaka topi hat
