That is the genius of the prank. Clicking Cancel does not stop the download -- it restarts the entire simulation from the beginning with a new random file and URL. The only way to end it is to wait for the fake download to complete. This traps the victim in an endless loop of fake downloads until they give up trying to cancel.
