WARNING: Your potential victims may not find these pranks as funny as you may think, choose your victims carefully.


10. “Kick Me”
Place a kick me sign on the back of someone and watch them get kicked.

9. “Automatic Door”
Place an automatic door sign on a regular door and watch people try to walk through and smash into the regular door.
Make sure that the door is not too obvious to be a regular door. Preferably use a door that is made mostly of glass, as that is what most automatic doors look like.

8. “Thank You”
If your victim gets drunk often or has a short attention span, leave a thank you note saying something like “I had a great time last night” or “Call me soon again”. Your victim should wake up the next morning confused and nervous.

7. “Do NOT Touch”
Just place a do not touch sign near something that you want people to touch, you will be surprised at how many people actually touch it.

6. “Enter & Exit”
Swap the “enter” and “exit” signs of a store and watch how many people follow the signs and look foolish went going the wrong way.
It may be a good idea to get the permission of whichever stores’ manager so you do not get in trouble with the law, unless this is not a public prank.

5. “Wrong Subscription”
Place a magazine or mail subscription in the name of whoever you plan on pulling the prank.
You could choose something funny such as a playboy subscription to a female roommate, or sending a home decorating magazine to your grandparents.

4. “Remote Control”
If you want to fool with someone’s television, purchase a Universal Remote and perform various actions such as changing the channel or turning the television off as your victim watching it wonders what is going on.

3. “Drive Through”
What to do is place a fairly large order at a drive through, then pull out of the drive and watch the person behind you receive all kinds of food they did not order.

2. “Fax Machine”
Place an “in” sign right above the paper shredder at work and have coworkers think it is the fax machine.

1. “Bottle Swap”
This cruel prank can be used with many bottles of varying substances. Take one bottle’s ingredients and swap it with another with similar properties.
An effective example could be swapping Nair hair removal into a bottle labeled as shampoo.

    The ‘Kick Me’ joke is a classic, but the person that’s going to get kicked won’t be to happy.
    If you want some practical joke idea’s, watch the tv show JACKASS. You like one of the pranks?, just dull it down to a beginners level so it doesn’t hurt anybody.(By hurt i mean like broken bones, if they scream thats good to. it’s not funny unless they get hurt, but on a certain level.)

    Thank you for this really good information. I did notice Im having a few problems on your website though. I can certainly see the piece of writing just fine but for some reason at this time there is actually some sort of frame on top that says “page can not be found” err this would likely end up being on my end, I could possibly have some spy ware.

Did anybody knows a proper Programs or perhaps a professional broking service, who could very well assist to me? My partner and i fully understand, doing this market place may be very high risk, nonetheless i’ve a bit of cash presently but also would have whole lot. So someone has got a good guidance just for me personally? I’ve searched otherwise the commissions usually really excessive by a few broker agents.

  10. Kitty Says:

    That last one was the most vicious!!! If someone ever did that to me I would hurt them so bad but they would have to live and be tortured for the rest of their lives. If I kill them that would be taking the easy way out, they would have to suffer the same way they made me suffer. I would have to hate somebody to do something like that to a person, that is horrible I cant even think about it.

  11. Duke Says:

    Pull string fire crackers are hillarious to play with; Taking a piece of clear tape and putting it over the lid of a canned drink is funny; Getting seran wrap and placing it PERFECTLY on a toilet seat is freaking great; Going to walmart with peanut better in my extra pair of underwear i had one, looking at people, and pulling it out of “my ass” and making them think it was shit…. that was PRICELESS
