Best pranks you've pulled

    What's the best prank you've done on someone?

    I heard recently of a prank whereby two male friends were out driving and they stopped at a petrol station. The driver went into the shop and the other fella took his shoes and socks off and places his feet on the windscreen.

    Later that evening when the driver and his wife were going out for dinner, the wife turned the heating on and viola-she was greeted by the sight of footprints on the windscreen.

    Same fella hid a thong in the driver's glovebox while he popped into the shop.
    Wife went looking in the glovebox for something the next day and found the panties, leaving one very shocked and dumbfounded husband and an irate wife.

    Let's hear your pranks!

    The only pranks I've done are the ol' clingfilm on the toilet and across the doorframe-silly but oh-so funny when you're gargled!

    Didn't do this myself but my mate heard of it and done it to his sister about 6 year ago.
    He recorded the lotto results on Wednesday and on Saturday had bought a ticket with the numbers from the Wednesday results.
    On the Saturday he swapped her ticket with the one he bought and played the recording of Wednesdays results while they sat to watch it. Of course she thought she had won and was crying and promising everyone holidays and new cars etc.
    let's just say she didn't talk to him for a good while over it.

    Well then, I'd say you'll just love this video:



    Self-styled YouTube "prankster" goes around asking people if they want to kiss his ass and gets exactly what he deserves.

    Waited 'til the missus was pregnant to tell her I'd had a vasectomy. Man did she look silly!

    years ago when I was a young man my friend and I played a trick on an older neighbouring farmer,he was in the habit of going to the local pub for a few pints one night every weekend and then drive home(normal in those day).the road to his house was a small boreen off a straight length of tar road,the sides of this tar road had a lot of furze bushes all along it and his house was the only turnoff along this road, well,with a plank of wood and some cut furze bushes we camoflagued his road and waited as he came home from the pub,he slowed down where his lane should be but of course he could not see it,he drove up the road and back down going slower every time,finally,as he was coming back down the road for the 5th or 6th time we removed every thing and he was finally able to see his lane,we did the same thing the weekend after.of course word about our trick got out(2 people can keep a secret if one of them is dead) and he gave out like crazy to us-ahh but we did not care as we were right scamps altogether,:

    A friend and I were bored one Saturday, looking on fb and the likes. We were both logged in, and each of us had a guy each on chat, they're both always gagging for it. They actually know eachother to see and we all went to school together.

    So we each began talking to them, and said we were with our 'friend ' who saw & liked their pic and wanted to get to know them. We showed them pics of us with a girl we knew they wouldn't know.

    They were both well up for it, it worked our beautifully, we gave each of them each other's numbers and said their names were their real names with an 'i' at the end.

    They both went on their merry way, next thing about 2 hours later we hear back from them. They were in knots about it, they were good sports. We still don't know what it took for the Penni to drop though!!!

    what's good fun go in your mates car and turn the air vents at the driver seat. Fill the vents with baby powder and turn them up to full. When he/she starts the car they will get covered in baby powder :) works a treat

    I took my dad's can of beer out of the fridge and shook it in the pain mixer. At first I thought it was going to be a great gag.

    As he gently peeled back the ring pull with joyful anticipation of the suddy and hoppy goodness to come, I yelled "April Fools", the fools was drowned out by the sound of the impending explosion.

    My father ended up in hospital with concussion and severe, life-threatening injuries.

    I thought it was a great prank but it nearly cost my father his life.

    Someone watches too much Simpsons...

    In fairness, those are always the best pranks.

    From a can of beer, you need to expand on this to make it creditable?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 650 ✭✭✭csallmighty


    1. Get two phones
    2. Ring two people at the same time
    3. Put phones together and let them have a nice chat
    4. ????
    5. Profit!!!!

    Inhaling baby powder can cause serious lung damage and even death. That's a pretty scummy prank.

    I had a great prank earlier. The internet is great for it

    I'm awful at pranks. In college, I tried doing the burning paper bag of sh1t outside our neighbours house, but they opened the front door and saw me struggling to get the lighter going. Tried doing a heavy metal wakeup call to a sleeping mate of mine at a house party, but woke him up when I banged the amp off the door trying to carry it in.

    ALT & F4 should fix it, did for me.

    I sellotaped a miniture picture of the troll face to the bottom of my team leaders optical mouse. He couldn't figure out why his mouse pointer wouldn't move. Tried plugging it out and back in again, turned off his PC etc etc. He was somewhat pissed. lol :P

    sitting in the back seat, bang the side of the door with fist while driver is trying to park the car, have done it a few times on different people, works best in a busy shopping center car park

    Wife rang in to the Late Late competiton one night, she dozed off and I rang house phone from my mobile while sitting beside her. She lept from chair to grab phone.

    Needless to say I was in stiches on floor and in the dog house for a week. Worth it though.

    A mate of mine works in a store. I called the cops and said there was some issues with the store and that recently I was given a couple of fake 20 euro notes by the same cashier and described my mate.

    I then called my mate in work and said a mutual fried of our was trying to pull a prank on him and and hired two people to act like cops and come in and question him about fake notes and that he should mess with them.

    The cops arrived and started asking questions and my mate starts going "fake notes, ye I print em in the back I have a whole machine to do it, I've been doing it for years, I'm surprised it took you idiots this long to come in and ask me about them"

    They say they want to take him to the station and try and arrest him and he gets all angry saying this is going far enough and resists the arrest so they call like 2 or 3 cop cars for back up.

    It took a couple of hours to explain that one and get the mess cleared up!
