Get out of lunch room
walk to a teachers class with no teacher inside.
one person stood at the door to see if anyone was coming while someone jumps up on a desk, lifts the ceiling tile and throws 2 open contaners in
set the ceiling tile back down and leave the class room...

Whats so hard to believe about that?
ment the poop thing... you threw your own poop at someone?

Office prank: Get a cup of (hot) coffee and walk up to someone already with a cup of coffee. Claim your shoe is untied and ask them to hold your cup. Then ask for the time. Ideally, they check their watch and pour hot coffee all over themselves. Hard to pull off though.

A boy scout prank: Get a tray and fill it with water. Put the tray on a table and place a small stick in the center. Have a group sit around the table. Get a young scout to come over and tell them you are playing a game where you have to blow the stick to once side as fast as possible. When they sit down, flip the tray, soaking the young scout.

Rig a door bell to open a sprinkler valve. the sprinkler valve is connected to a small chamber and a huge balloon or something that will work good to punch the victim. When they ring the door bell they will get punched by the balloon, or whatever your using. Or Rig it to shoot water. This Guy that used to harass me and my friends when we were young was walking his dog so i got a turd an shot it up in the air it landed right on his dog. The dog ran away
an he spent an hour chasin it.

Or you could just pick them up, and drop them in a creek. Some people like you are too nice...

@prof- this guy I know kept his catfish bait (the cheese kind) in this shed all summer long at his lakehouse, and DANG is smelled awful. catfish bait and 100 degree weather don't mix...

Anywhoo, I've heard putting vacuum-sealed ham on a car's windows leaves an ugly film that's excruciatingly hard to clean off.
Also, if you shoot a bb through a car's back wndow while its driving, it can implode.

Get as many people as you can to point and laugh at random people. They look at themselves, make sure thier pants are on and stuff, its hilarious!

I've taped down that veggie washer thing on the sink, my dad got pissed when it got him...

Loosen lug nuts. Instant fun.

Put a schraeder on a water bottle, put some water in it, pump it up, when someone opens it...BOOM!

Start a local "shoe tree". get as many people as you can to get shoes stuck in a tree somewhere.

That one is quite funny - I've done it myself.

Most of the rest of these are just unpleasant and unreasonable.

No the poop one is fake... I thought it would be funny though. Could you imagine getting human poop all over your face? That would be gross.

I want to try the tray thing. It would be funny.

that would probably be illegal for sanitary reasons

hey I just had an Idea we all know how to take apart shower heads so why not put some drink powder into the shower head and into the pipe leading to the shower head.
fruit punch mix: water turned to blood
lemonade mix: pee
chocolate syrup or gravy mix: really bad plumbing failure

in fact I though of another one rig an old bike tire tube and fill it with water and add a nozzle then put it underneath a toilet seat so when some one sits down !squirt!

hey does anyone know the phone trick It goes something like this: pick up the head set, dial (I forget the number its three digits and one is a 5 I think), then dial the last four digits of the phone number for the pay phone which should be on some where on the front phone (not the head set), then wait a few second for the tone to change, quickly hang up and pick up the phone I suggest tap the switch, and hear for a high pitched tone, if you hear it hang up and walk away and within the next minute the phone will ring and people will look confused and someone will eventually pick it up and all they will hear is a odd dial tone. its better if someone teaches it to you

Wow, some of you have some very destructive ideas of what constitutes a prank. I bet you don't find destroying people's property so funny when it happens to you.

The basics of comedy:

1. If you fall down a well, I'll laugh.
2. If I get a paper-cut, I wont laugh.

(You doesn't mean you specifically, its just a general statement)


Wire someones left (or right) turn signal to their horn. You can decide which one based on which way they wont turn for a bit until they are away from home.

Switch someones left and right signals. (When they turn the left one on, the right one flashes) They'll get pulled over for sure.

Other peoples misfortune is funny I know, it's sad but it's true. I would laugh at someone falling down too, but purposely causing significant damage to someone or their property for a chuckle is just stupid.

Your horn prank isn't too bad because they will notice it fairly quickly and be able to fix it and take appropriate precautions until then, but switching blinkers on somebody would be extremely dangerous.
Why not just cut their brake lines, hahaha that would be hilarious. :lol:

indeed, unintention pain is generally hilarious(as long as its not severe). for example, falling off a bridge=not funny, falling off a bridge into a patch of daisies owned by preditorial mummified-bear-with-shark-heads=funny :lol:

lol, on a more serious note(not really) its funny as long as someone doesnt suffer any major damage, if someone smashes into he side of an ice rink while ice-skating, its funny, but if they break their nose, its not funny. the next day when their face is all wonkey its ok to laugh

You could hook their little "red triangle" emergency lights to the horn too, so if they have to pull over on a highway to inspect why their horn honks when they go over a lane. They'll turn that on and draw a crap load of attention to themselves adding to the embarassment. :lol:

Put soap suds all over your neighbors windows on their house.

Put some type of uber loud buzzing thing in your toilet tank (on the lid or waterproof it) and then set it up so the when the toilet is flushed, the noise turns on and scares the hell out of whoever just used the toilet.

Use the above idea with the doorbell or the bathroom light.

If you happen to have the type of car lift that auto mechanics use (the ones that lift cars up above your head), find a way to put your neighbors car on it at night.

Take a gutted light bulb (I don't know where my friend got them) and put it in place of a normal one.

Call somebody (private-ize the number with *67 or whatever) and tell them this is the "Microsoft Companys Video Game Department calling to let you know your subscription to X-Box live is being cancelled." A few hours before, cut the line used for connecting to X-Box live.


I pretty much make these up as I read this topic so maybe I'll post here for the rest of my life when I have an idea...even if it's horrible.
