beauty in the breakdown

For our senior prank in high school, some students stacked all of the picknick tables in the quad (there were about 20 of them) into a pyramid on the roof of the cafeteria.

When I was in college, some farking idiot thought it was funny to urinate on the carpet at the end of the hall. Did that every night for a week until I got tired of it. Keep in mind this was REALLY thin carpet - the kind that you can pull up and wash off with a hose because water goes through it.

I got a sheet of thin steel stock from the local hardware store and hooked it up to an old electrical cord. Put a step-down transformer on the line to bring the voltage down - no need to kill the little jerk. Pulled up one side of the carpet and slid the sheet underneath. 3am the next morning I'm awakened by a LOUD scream and i hear him running away. Never had that problem again.

For years people have been pulling pranks on their RA's. I know of one hall that set their RA's door on fire. I never got that extreme - an entire can of glade potpurri spray into the keyhole and combination lock of his door was enough. That stuff lingers and gets on your hands every time you touch the knob. Dude smelled like a flower for weeks.


I personally like one that the physicist Dick Feynman pulled when he was in college. I did a similar trick, though not as elaborate. He came downstairs one day to find someone had stolen one of the double doors to one of his frat brother's rooms. So he took the other door and hid it in the cellar. The guys were pissed and found out who took the first door, got that reinstalled, then spent a long time beating the hell out of the poor guy to get him to tell them where the second door was. Brilliant!

There's always the trick of gluing a quarter to the sidewalk. You'd be surprised how many people spend a LONG time trying to get the damn thing up.

I read of one guy who bought a park bench, took it to a park, waited for a cop to walk by, then grabbed the bench and started running out of the park with it. Cop arrested him, he produced the receipt for the bench. Cop arrested him anyway for disorderly conduct

keynes pulled this one with some friends at oxford... there was a bridge with those huge cement things decorating it, usually spheres or statues etc, im not sure, so they made one out of paper mache, and when a tourist boat was passing underneath he and his friends leaned on it, it fell, and they started yelling and screaming... all the tourists lept off the boat, cameras and all in hand

Both guys woke up screaming with a full view of the grill of a tractor trailer in front of them.

Not sure if I saw this in a movie or what. But whereever the idea came from it worked. I was crying it was so funny.

A friend and I decided to send some goodies to our guy friends who were up at a Scout camp for the week. Made some rice krispie treats, one half nice and yummy, the other half flavored with tabasco sauce. To make the regular side blend in, we just added some orange food coloring. We were lucky someone grabbed one of the good ones first .

My absolute favorite prank is one that's been spread around the world by The Spark. However, I'd thought I'd share. (I've done this one, by the way, to hilarious results)

Get some sponges. Wet them, and squeeze them into a very tight ball. Wrap a sting around them, thus holding them in the ball posistion. When dry, cut the string.

You will now have a little ball of sponge. Go to target's bathroom (industrial bathrooms are the best). Flush toliet. As the water is going down (right near the end) drop 5 or 10 of these balls in the tank. They will expand in the wall, thus ruining the plumbing.

To make it worse, soak them in a mixture of water and cornstarch. That's cement, baby!


This is one that a bunch of us did in highschool: Find a house with a lot of lawn ornaments. At night, simply move all ornaments onto the neighbor's yard, placing them in the same posistion. In the morning, confusion ensues.

that ones pretty damn good, but this one is FAR FAR FAR more vicious and quite illegal.

Yeast Bunnies

You've probably never heard of this one. It is quite similar to the sponge in the toilet trick except much more vicious. My friend did this at one of the residence halls at his college and they had to evacuate half the building. He was expelled for doing it -- he couldn't keep his mouth shut about his heroic feat -- so be careful whom you telling about your deeds. Let's get down to business. What you need is:

# A Large box of the sh*&$est tea you can find (100 teabags at least)
# Lots of yeast
# Lots of sugar

Empty each teabag of its contents, then fill it 2/3 sugar and the rest with yeast. Make like a huge pile of them so you can be sure you won't run out. Also, make sure to staple together the top of the tea bags so they are sealed closed.

Now for the fun part: Find a building to sabotage, preferably a school of some sort or maybe a dorm. Visit each bathroom and flush 5-10 baggies down the toilet. Then make sure to STAY THE HELL OUT OF THE PLACE FOR THE NEXT FEW WEEKS. The entire sewer system will be infested with colonies of fermenting yeast and as a result feces will be oozing all over the place - out of every toilet, sink, shower drain, and anything else connected to the sewers.

PS: For even more cruelty, throw in some thick rubber gloves filled halfway with the same mixture plus water. Flush them down along with everything else (you might have to down size them a bit). Many people will be wondering what is bursting inside their walls... until s%#t comes oozing out everywhere and there is not a single spared pipe in the building

A simple one is to use cling film and cover all the pan with it, below the seat. You can not see it but it will catch everything.

One guy ending up pissing down the back of this trousers while he was sat down doing a shite.

People also do not look at their' work' and so wipe their arse, flush the toilet and then walk away. Leaving the next user in for a shock.

The other day one of my lieutenants was giving a presentation to some visiting Colonels on her laptop. After it was done, she had left the room for a little bit and left her laptop logged on to her user account. I did a quick search on google images for a blue screen of death, found a good one, then set it as her desktop. I hid the backround icons, hid the start bar, and disabled her touchpad then logged off. When she came back, she logged on to her account and saw the screen, tried to hit some keys, then got real frustrated. She restarted her computer several times but to no avail. Me and a few others knew about it and were laughing our asses off in the other room. Later on after she had finally figured out what was going on, she came over to where I was working to give me my props

I ran a wire from a guys rotor to the seat of his car. I spread the strands of the wire out just poking through his seatcover. When he turned over the engine his hand holding the key completed the circuit to ground and when the engine was craked over he almost went through the roof.

It was more a revenge thing than a practical joke but it sure was funny from where I was standing.

This takes patience and a good look out, but pierce the top of someone's opened soda just below the opening. I've only seen it once, but it was hilarious.

I'm a mechanic and we've had some pretty lengthy prank wars. Opened someone's tool box and zip tied all their tools in tight bundles, including the cutting pliers. Empty the box and replace the tools with similar weight. And best of all, cut the threads off of a grease fitting and glue it to the top of their tool cabinet. Proceed to dribble grease on the fitting and the edges of the drawers. OR you could actually install it. I have plenty more I'll save for later.

I suddenly got called to go on a business trip that would take me to driving distance of my mothers. I didn't tell her I was coming. I just drove down after the meeting and while standing on her front porch I called her on my cell and told her there was a suspicious person on her porch and she had better check it out. Not even questioning how I knew there was someone on her porch when I was suppose to be 900 miles away, she told me OK, "but stay on the line in case there is trouble". Then she came down and opened the door to find me on her porch.
That was a good practical joke.

If your victim has a fairly new computer with a Nvidia graphics card with new drivers, you can right click on the desktop and go to the nview tab... From here you can flip the screen, so that everything is reversed! It's impossible to figure it out if you don't know about that option, and your victim will have a real hard time undoing it, when his mouse pointer moves the direct opposite way than he thinks!

Pepsi just ran a promotion where you could send in specially marked soda caps and you would get a free NFL team hat, with a limit of 3 for any person or household. My brother and I both sent in for the limit, plus more sent to friends' houses. We joked about how the hats would probably be Uber-crappy and it gave me an idea. I knew which hats he ordered, so I decided to "send" some fake hats to him. I printed up a fake Pepsi form letter thanking him for his participation and a fake FedEx label for the boxes. I bought some plain tan baseball caps on clearance at Wal-Mart for $1 a piece. I went to a fabric shop and bought some paper-thin fabric that had all of the teams’ helmets on it. I cut out the helmets of the 3 teams he ordered and glued them as crappily as possible on the front of the hats. I left clumps of glue and made sure they were wrinkled. I also glued small NFL crests from the fabric onto the backs of the hats for added realism. The hats looked like crap, but were realistic enough, especially with the crests on the back, that they looked exactly like the kind of crap Pepsi might give away. I put the hats and letters in the boxes, sealed them up, dropped them on his porch, and waited for the hilarity. He is a big Bengals fan and it was the week after they beat the Chiefs, so when he saw them, he was very excited about wearing the new Bengals hat he had ordered. He believed that they were the actual hats. He was so angry. He said he was going to crap in the boxes and send them back to Pepsi because that is what they sent him. He also said he was going to write them a letter bitching about how crappy the hats were. After milking it for angry comments for a couple of hours I told him the truth.

Me and my friend planned this extremely weak trick for a party. We got a bunch of people round, and i announced that i was gonna kill my friend by strangulation. I did a sleeper hold on him (of the 20 odd people watching i was shocked that not one knew what i was doing), and he was knocked out for around 8 seconds, by which time i had said that i would bring him back to life through magic. I waved my hands over his face as he woke and he said 'Whoa... did i die?'

People were suprisingly impressed.

Sounds like fun - but needs to ble completed with a flipped screenshot of his desktop as a background, and all icons hidden. (As stated by numerous before me)

Now the screen will look ok, but the mouse is "inverted" - and nothing will work.

Go to the three hole punch, remove all the little punches.

open said umbrella and pack the punches all the way at the top.

I've seen many practical joke sites on the Internet but most of them are simply schemes to utterly destroy an aspect of someone's life. There's a difference between something you can go to jail for and something that would be funny.

Examples I frequently see: "One time we took a bunch of chemicals from the lab at college and poured them all into a cauldron. Then we lit it on fire and blew half of the chemistry lab up in flames! It was fun and people couldn't believe we did it."

Or how about the classic "Get your neighbor real good! Shoot their dog with a gun and put it on their doorstep. Ha ha!"

"Poor chemical XXX in someone's car and watch their engine blow up a mile down the road!"

None of these are practical jokes. They're crimes that you can go to jail for. I hate when people say practical jokes but really mean "plot to destroy someone's life."

Sorry to bitch and moan but I see this happening a lot. Let's keep it realistic!

The only practical joke I can think of is concerning me wanting to be a teacher. When I graduation with my Bachelor's I'd love to go to my first class that I have to teach and sit down at a desk and act like I was a student. Then ask if anyone had heard anything about the teacher. The entire class would be talking about what the teacher was like, then I'd just get up and walk to the front and say "Hey, I'm your teacher." It'd probably embarass the hell out of the students.

Friend of mine has been working on this for two years. Two years ago he and a friend told a third friend that the second friend had started working kids birthday parties as a clown. They have discussed this on and off every few months or so with the second friend making up some stories about the different parties he has been working and how the business pays well and has been picking up. Soon, they will tell the third friend that they need his help as a fill in at a party--fun experience and good money. They will buy him a clown suit and send him to either 1) a fake party with all of their friends so they can all enjoy him showing up in the outfit; or 2) simply send him out to one of his bosses houses in the outfit at around 6:00 p.m. one night to see what happens after he rings the bell in his outfit and asks to come in for the "party."

My friends and I used to fuck with people in their sleep all the time. Make up, markers, sprinkles, whatever was handy. This is by far the best prank we've ever pulled on anyone though.

I've got a friend who, when he drinks too much, is dead to the world. One night he passed out over at my house when I had another particularly cruel friend over. We started out making him punch himself in the nuts, nothing. Then the other friend (I swear) shoved the first's cell phone down his pants and called and called and called (his phone vibrated more than any other I've seen).

After nothing could get him up, we decided to duct tape him. We interlocked his fingers and completely covered both hands with tape, than taped his feet together, and just for good measure, put 2 little squares over his eyes. BUT none of that woke him up, so we were forced to squirt lemon juice into his mouth. That woke him up quickly! I've never laughed that hard in my life! We were 5 feet away from him laughing our asses off while he's using his taped up hands to try and paw the tape off his eyes.

After about 30 minutes he got it all off, went to the kitchen sink, pissed in it and went back to sleep.

My father likes to relate this tale every year during the holidays...

When he was a boy, his father who was a strict, hard disciplined, enlisted military man moved the family to germany for a tour of duty. His father purchased a large old house just outside of the base.

The thing about this old house was that under the dinner table on the floor there was a button that sounded a bell. The purpose of the bell was to summon the cook or maid to the dining room. It was on the floor so you could summon the main/cook without getting up or having to stop eating. My father's father had no clue there was a button under the table and because it sounded like it was a door bell, his father thought it was some kids ringing the doorbell and running away.

Everyday for two weeks, when his father would come home and sit down for dinner, right as he would take his first bite of the meal, my father would press button with his foot. By the second week, his father finally freaked out! This was a man known for his stone cold composure and unbreakable willpower and patience. Unfortunately, my father's brother started laughing uncontrollably after grandfather had his "fit". He ended up having to tell my grandfather about the button.

My grandfather promptly, removed the food and dishes, overturned the table, and ripped up the entire wiring system under the floorboards, put the table back and reset the table and finished his meal without saying a word. The incident was never mentioned again in my grandfather's presence for over 60 years...

Some good ideas here. Last month one of the apprentices cut his hand on a chop saw at work. My foreman told me he had cut of 2 fingers and could I look in the extraction silo and see if I could recover them. I spent 45 minutes busting my ass before the git let on that it was a joke

I got even big time. I got the spare keys to his nice new work van and moved his van from outside his house to a pub's car park about 1/2 a mile away from his house. He woke up in the morning thinking his van had been stolen. When he arrived at work some 3 hours later he was really pissed off When the police phoned my boss to tell them the van had been recovered from a pub car park it made it look like my foreman had got drunk and forgotten where he had parked

friend of mine tried talking a couple of us into taking the tires off her boyfriend's car during Easter Mass one year, and leaving it on cinderblocks. this friend also hates ketchup. two unrelated facts combined to make a great practical joke.

well, her boyfriend was a friend of ours as well, and had a brand new car. his girlfriend drove a mid-70s VW. Rather than leaving her boyfriend's car on cinderblocks, we take her car, wedge the front tires with two two-by fours, put the rear wheels on cinderblocks, and take her tires and roll them out back of one of the church buildings. then we took ketchup, and wrote April Fools all over every window of her car, then put some on the door handles. she comes walking out of Easter Mass with this big shit-eating grin on her face, talking to her boyfriend, expecting to find his car on cinderblocks. they walk past his car, and lo and behold, his car is fine. as she is now rather curious why we hadn't followed through on the deal, she walks up to her VW to find it covered in ketchup (which she refused to get within 6 feet of), sitting on cinderblocks.

We had a couple of guys from work out to the bar one evening for a combination "going-away/birthday" party. One was heading back to school and the other had recently had his birthday. Anyway, we told each of them that we were planning to 'pie' the other one, and it was their job to keep them talking and maintain eye contact so that we could sneak up behind them with the pie.

LOL - Neither one of them suspected a thing...

This isn't really a practical joke, but it was funny as hell..

Yesterday me and my roommate wrestled my other roommate to the ground and wrote our initials on his ass cheeks and drew a heart around the initials (in permanent marker). Then we wrote "Insert penis here" above his ass crack and drew an arrow pointing towards his ass hole

I didn't do this one, it was my father-in-law, Jack(RIP). He had a neighbor that bought some new car and was bragging about what great gas mileage it was supposed to get. Jack knew this guy kept track of his gas mileage religiously.

So Jack had a great idea. He went over to his neighbor's driveway every night for 2 weeks and added 5 gallons of gas to his neighbor's gas tank. His neighbor could not talk enough about the amazing mileage he was getting, better than what the dealer told him!

After 2 weeks of this, my FIL took his siphon pump and started taking 5 gallons OUT of the guys tank every night. He freaked out! To the point where he was going to return his car to the dealership and tell them there was a serious problem with his engine. So Jack had to tell him what he had been doing.

I think it's one of the funniest ideas I have heard of.

i work in a hospital and one of my co-workers is a coffee fanatic, we'll call her mary. another nurse noticed that mary leaves her coffee creamer in the kitchen next to the coffee maker while at work and then takes it home with her every morning (we work nights). he started putting a spoon full of thickner (a powdery subtance that thickens liquids--the more thickner you use, the thicker the liquid becomes) in her creamer every time they worked together for about two weeks. now thickner isn't as effective in hot liquids as it is cold, so as long as she drank the coffee fast we knew she wouldn't notice. but one night mary came into work pissed. she'd gone home that morning and fixed herself some coffee. she got up to answer her phone and when she went back to her coffee it had cooled down and was rock hard. after thinking about it for a couple of minutes she figured out what one of her co-workers had done. i just wish it had happened while we were at work! seeing her face would have been priceless.

another one from work, we have bed alarms that we use on patients who aren't allowed up but get confused and get up anyway. they emit a loud, high-pitched beeping to alert us the patient is up. you attatch one end to the bed and the other end to the patient's gown and when they sit or stand up, the magnet connecting the two loses contact and sets off the alarm. well, mary has a nasty habit of nodding off while sitting at the desk working on her charting. one night while she was dozing, we attatched a bed alarm to her chair and clipped it to her clothes. when she finally got up about 15 minutes later she set off the bed alarm. scared the hell out of her and had her running circles around her chair trying to shut it off.

and there is the classic ky jelly on the phones thing. we got in trouble for that one morning though. someone had forgotten to clean up their prank before the morning shift arrived. one of the doctors came in, picked the phone up, had his ear and chin smeared with ky, set the phone back down and promptly walked over to the manager's office. funny only because i'm not the one who got in trouble for it!

one that i and some friends from work are currently working on is a fake engagement announcement. we have a friend who is dead set against getting married--ever. he's not currently dating anyone so we're working on an announcement to send it to the papers (complete with photo). doubt he'll see it, but we know he'll get questions from friends and family on it!

one i didn't do but lmao when i heard about it. a friend took a couple of ammonia smelling sticks (what you wave under the nose of someone who has passed out) and taped them to the bottom of another friend's gas pedal. when he hit open road and stomped the gas he busted the sticks releasing the ammonia odor. hilarious!
