Hey Pandas, What’s The Best Prank You’ve Ever Pulled? (Closed)

Convinced everyone I was Cis Straight for 15 year.

OMG. My favorite prank I ever pulled. Many moons ago my ex husband and I worked at Barro's pizza, he was amazing and got close to the owner. He was basically running the back half (kitchen) while I was running the front of the house. (lobby register etc) I quit because I was going to school full time and taking care of our first born. They got a new "manager" in who was a complete ass you know the type. Came in from another store so he thought he was God's gift. Anyhow, we found out he coveted his antennae ball which was a Mickey head ONLY found in Disney land. So I went to Jack in the box, got a jack one and stole his mickey head and took ransom pics with jack in a stocking cap and everything holding a little knife and demanded that 1,000 pennies be taped to the bottom of his bumper for retrieval. He had a meltdown....after the melt down everyone that worked there was in on it and donated enough money that I went to the Disney store and bought every mickey head ball they had and taped them all over his van EXCEPT his coveted prize. His wife cracked up, he did not. End result after about 3 weeks I put it at the top of his antenna unharmed and he quit being a jerk to everyone. He never knew who did it.

My sister and brother in law bought a new Pathfinder many years ago. They brought it home and had us over to see it. I went over and looked very carefully at it. My and my boyfriends opinion was super important to them because we know a lot about cars. I winced, and made a face. Broke the news to them that their tires were faulty and are in dangerous condition. They have to bring it back to the dealer ASAP. I showed them all the little rubber hairs (vent spews) off the side of the tires. I told them they are in not safe to be driven over 40mph, and need to be changed out. I waited until after they called the dealer the next day to tell them I was messing with them. The tires were brand spanking new, the rubber hairs are normal.

side not: bro in law does not know about cars, I had him convinced he had to change out the summer air for winter air in the tires as well.

In my job, we had to alternate staying late till midnight, alone. One of my coworkers was very afraid of darkness, ghosts, weirds sounds in the middle of the night, etc. We work in a tv station and my area had 6 big flat tv's. The day she was to stay late, I programmed all the tv's to shut down at 11pm, and turn on at 11:01 pm at full volume. Her screams were heard by the security guys and turned the tv's off while she flew from there. The next day I erased the on/off programming and nobody knew what happened.

I got another one, took some preparation. Got the Defautl Beep sound from windows and edited in Audacity. Made a 6 min wav file with the DB sound, nearly 6 minutes of silence, and at the end a scary sight soung fx. Then replaced the real file for the one I made in a coworker's pc and waited. 2 hours later the guy was really freaked out, went to have a smoke and told us he needed to take some time off. I told him right away and, although we was upset at first, we heard him silently laugh in his office.

My husband is genius with computers & pranks. In college, one roommate would become irrate about people smoking next door, constantly calling campus housing to complain.

We sent an email from our college housing, saying HE was kicked out of housing due to his smoking. This was 2002ish, before people had custom emails. So because it said randomname@collegehousing.edu it looked really legit.

The roommate stormed out one day, screaming. They caught him before he yelled at someone, though.

And so many more... My husband's pranks are legendary. I've NEVER got him. I do have two devious daughters, though. They're only 5 & 7, but I can't wait until they're teens and can think of awful pranks for their dad. 🤣

once when i was pretty young we were having some sort of soup for dinner and i asked if the white stuff in it was chicken and my sister said yes so i popped a piece in my mouth and i was like "omg this is SO good" and then my dad was like SIKE its tofu! so now im fine with tofu as long as theres some sort of sauce with it, or its in a soup

Back in the 70's when just about everyone was smoking pot, I decided to plant some seeds and see if I could grow a plant. They sprouted and I ended up having a pot plant. My mom asked what I was growing and I told her it was oregano. She had no clue. to this day, we still laugh about it. We've never told her the truth.

Had to drive through the night with two others that did not share the driving, only slept. About dawn I needed to stretch and coasted into a rest area. I noticed a big rig driver getting into his cab. I slowly coasted up to the front of his truck and pantomimed what I needed. He pulled the horn while I screamed and jerked the wheel, while the car was sitting still. My sound asleep passengers got a terrifying wake up call. The big rig driver and I thought it was hilarious; my passengers not so much. I didn't have to drive back home though.

A work colleague left his dirty work shoes under his desk so i cleaned ONE of them up. He didn't notice for a while!

My mom has been known to just randomly ask things like "Are you pregnant?" "I think youve started drinking. Have you been drinking?" and if we walk by a place that smells like smoke she goes "Oh my gosh!! BooBoo Are you smoking?????" (She still calls me that honestly its kinda cute tho) So one time she asked me if ive been smoking because she smelled smoke. I looked her straight in the eye and said "Actually mom... im really sorry but yah ive started smoking" And she covered her mouth and got the mom look. You know the mom look. And she goes "I knew it. you know just the other day i was telling your dad that something like this was bound to happen sooner or later." We eventually got it sorted out that it was a joke. But it took a lot of convincing from my family members and a lot of facetimes with my friends. so yah idk if this is a prank or not but definitely along the lines. Anywho im not saying any of this stuff is bad all i'm saying is these things fall into my moms book of life ruining things lol.

For my zoom class, I teamed up with my teacher for a prank. My teacher left the meeting by 'accident' and it automatically made some kid the host. I had set up another computer and I used it to sign in with various names like 'Mr. and Mrs. Jones', and my teacher did so too. Eventually, we switched the names to things like 'haha you dumb' and stuff. It freaked the kid out and my teacher came back in and we told everyone. Everyone had a good laugh and the kid was fine.

When I was in fourth grade, I had just gotten a wireless mouse. It had really cool stripes and colors on it, so I was psyched. One of my friends at the time, convinced me to sneak the mouse bluetooth mouse chip into the teachers computer. I did it when she left the room, and I was controlling it from my desk. I barely escaped trouble on that one...

Put a spider Halloween decoration in the fridge

I met a girl at a summer camp once who told me she convinced her entire middle school *for a year* that she was a boy. That is all I know.

okay, i'm not good at pranks, but i once planned to get some string, make it wet, and put it on my mom's bed so it would look like our cat puked on it. I couldn't get the string though so i couldn't do it.

Once my band director was telling us about this time he caught an old student shoving plastic sporks under the door to his office so the next day our whole band brought boxes of plastic forks sporks and spoons. It was mine and this other kids idea, and after my band director saw it he just busted out laughing. We knew he wouldn’t take it to seriously because he would prank us lightly sometimes

Having a fake winning scratch card. I had it in my back pocket and pulled it out in front of some colleagues. " oh I forgot about this" started scratching it. I started yelling in excitement. Everyone was looking at me like What's up with him. " NO WAY. IVE WON £1000,000!" They didn't believe me at first until I showed them. I was getting pats on my back from my colleagues and even bosses. I even had one colleague phone her mother about it. I kept this up all day. At the end of the day I confessed it was a fake. I tore it up and put it in the bin. Some still didn't believe me and even pulled the bits out of the bin to check! A lot found it funny and some didn't.

So my family was at ocean city. My grandpa wanted a shake from dumser's, and he wanted it really thick. They are made thick but he kept saying make it thicker. So we went there, ate our ice cream, and when the waitress came we told her what happened and asked for ice cream in a milkshake cup with a straw. it took my grandpa 10 minutes to realize.

once when i was very young and we were having tofu for dinner i asked if it was chicken and my sister said yes so i took a bite and was like omg its SO good and my dad was like SIKE its TOFU! and now i eat tofu.
