What's the best prank.....
 
you have pulled or has been pulled on you?

I was thinking about to a prank we played on a brother at church late one evening when I was a teenager. Two of my buddies and I had gone down to the church to pray in the prayer room (can't remember if we were just being spiritual or had guilty consciences...lol). I was the first one into the dark prayer room and was going to jump out and scare my friends. One came in right behind me, but the other delayed. He came in wearing a white baptismal robe walking like a ghost...we all laughed and thought that was great. But then we heard a car door close in the parking lot and peek out the window. It was another young man we knew, in his twenties, so we decided to leave the light off and jump out and scare him. He did not come into the prayer room, so we crept out looking for him. The church auditorium had three rows across and he was kneeling at the first bench in the middle row. My friend in the robe eased out and started down the aisle against the wall, making no noise and looking like he was gliding. Our brother looked up and saw what he must have thought was an angel, cause his eyes got as big as saucers and he started stammering. Me and the other friend rolled out of hiding, laughing our heads off. Good thing he had been praying, for I fear he would have beat the devil out of us........:ursofunny

Ohhh man where to begin!

Of course some of the greatest pranks are ones that didn't happen because certain people here started threads about certain churches then refused to give out any contact information.

Where IS that church in California that forces women, even visitors, to wear dresses before being allowed in?

Now RandyWayne, don't go pranking with my thread.........:foottap

As a little kid, around 5 years old, I put a book opened to the two pages of color pictures of snakes and put in under my Granny's sheet. She was deathly afraid of snakes and it did give her a fright. Wasn't long after that she had a mild stroke. Hope I didn't contribute to it........

There used to be a video of a rapture prank at a Starbucks. (Or some kind of coffee place.) Anyone remember it? Can't find it now. Maybe they took it down.

not sure if it would be a prank, but the lights went out during a service and my brother in law who plays the trumpet blew his trumpet as a dramatization of the rapture. scared quite a few.

I guess the meanest thing I've ever done was with a friend of mine...we called up several boys and told each of them that a certain girl wanted to meet them at the cafeteria the next morning before school. Except, there was no girl, and they all just showed up to meet--each other!!! :D :D :D

Just a few weeks ago I was at PastorRicks house in Tennessee. He had already left for church and I was on his 'puter. Before signing off, I left him a message on his screen. It said something like. "URGENT MESSAGE. You computer has been hacked and has been infected with multiple viruses that cannot be removed. You computer is destroyed. Thie message curtesy of a friend playing a joke on you." He evidently didn't read the entire message because he told me later, "Man, I'm gonna have to get a computer, 'cuz mines been hacked and is full of viruses!" I cracked up, but later confessed that I was the one who had "hacked" his 'puter.

That was done by Prank 3:16.

They removed it from their Youtube, but

there's the video. I personally didn't find it as funny as some of their own videos only because you could tell that the girl was genuinely terrified.

Here's one that's absolutely HILARIOUS from them though. :ursofunny

Yes, that's the one.

Didn't look that genuine to me (and a lot of people think it was faked and she was in on it), but if not, it was one of the meanest possible tricks that could ever be played on someone. Very, very unfunny. Even if it was staged, it was a skit about the meanest possible trick, and still unfunny.

IMO.

I completely agree. I originally saw it on YouTube a while ago and the negative response in the comments and response videos was overwhelming-I can see why they'd remove it. I remember cringing when I was watching it just because I didn't find it funny at all. A lot of their stuff is pretty good, though.

My husband used to be a volunteer firefighter, and he lived at the fire station with 3 other guys. One time my husband was in the shower, and the guys threw some firecrackers in with him and then ran off!!!!

We also got in a water fight one night using the hose off the truck. That's how we initiated the newbies. The fire alarm somehow got set off, and their captain had to get up out of bed to drive to the fire house and turn it off. Luckily he was a cool guy.

That reminds me of a time when my son, in early teens or maybe 11 or 12, was taking his sweet time in the shower. I got a pitcher full of cold water and started pouring it in. Couldn't see where he was through the shower curtain, so I started up near the shower head, moved slowly to the back (it was a bathtub), the back the other way again. He said it got him the whole time, since that's exactly how he moved, trying to get away from it! :toofunny

MissBratt, ask Sis D about the time at Antioch when we fixed her house while they were out of town. We short-sheeted their bed, put toothpaste on the toilet seat and filled the bathtub with balloons to the top of the shower curtain (because we KNEW she would want a shower the minute they got home)

My husband just shuts off the hot water heater and they have instant cold water.

My younger brother was a big prankster.

He used to work on a boat bigger than a tugboat.

One thing he did was fix coffee for his boss. His boss would let his coffee cool and then just turn it up and drink it all. So my brother put a raw egg in the bottom of the cup and poured his coffee on top. When the coffee cooled his boss turned it up and drank the raw egg.

He got him back by putting a full box of starch in his washer then put the clothes in the dryer. He said his jeans were like cardboard.

But my brother never let an opportunity pass. He had a bunkmate that would sleep dressed with shoes on so that when his shift would start he would have someone just wake him up and he would jump off the top bunk and go to work.

Well the crew got together and tied his shoe laces to the bedstead. If that wasn't bad enough they woke him up before his shift started. He tried to jump up and swung down instead.

Not sure how he got back at the crew.

At night,we used to put a pocketbook in the road with fishing line tied to it. We hid in this big ditch and when cars would stop, we would jerk the line! Scared some people pretty good.

Then one day, we put a king snake in the pocketbook and actually let someone pick it up. People started coming out of the car while it was still rolling! We ran like crazy!

I have twin boys, and daughter.

My daughter is three years older than the twins.

She and one of the twins decided it would be fun to place their sleeping four year old brother in a laundry basket and pull (they had tied a cord to the basket) him down the basement stairs.

He woke up halfway down, and out of the basket, wondering what in the world was going on.

Those two got in BIG TWUBBLE!!!
