- First! Ah! Got you!
See, I was the first one to comment on this video.
You ain't got nothin'. You've been pranked, son.
I'll just stick to educational videos.
So everyone enjoys a good prank.
It's a huge genre on YouTube,
and we even get a whole day
dedicated to it on April Fool's Day.
And whether you're in them or not,
they often get a ton of laughs,
as long as they go right.
Unfortunately, that isn't always the case,
and occasionally, pranks can go very, very wrong
causing some terrible outcomes that just went way too far.
People have gambled their careers,
their reputations, their relationships,
and even their lives all for a laugh.
These are going to sound unbelievable,
but unfortunately, they're all true.
So here they are: 10 Pranks That Went Terribly Wrong.
Number one is the Wedding Photo Prank.
Jin Cow, a 26 year old, would-be bride from China
made herself look 50 years older with hair and makeup
when she arrived for her pre-wedding photoshoot.
Unfortunately, the groom, Joe Chin,
didn't find this prank funny at all.
The couple immediately started bickering
and then screaming at each other
in the middle of the street.
It became so bad that a crowd actually gathered
and filmed the couple's quarrel,
which ended with him bailing, not only on the photoshoot,
but on the marriage altogether.
Jin was left crying in the middle of the street,
in her wedding gown, in old lady makeup.
This is awful. Not so much because
he was upset about the wedding photos,
but because he potentially left her
because he got a glimpse into the future
as to what she's gonna look like.
Oh, oh damn. That's, that's what I'm,
that's what I'm signing up for? Oh, okay.
Yeah. No, I'm out.
Number two is the Alligator Prank.
In 2011, the Michigan State Spartans
were preparing for the American College Football Bowl
held in Tampa Bay, Florida.
Head coach Mark Dantonio decided to
prank his players by telling them that
they need to practice for the game
by wrestling an eight year old alligator
that was two meters in length,
and he actually did it.
He brought an alligator to practice
alongside a handler, of course,
that was dressed as the team mascot.
Funny, funny! Except that the humor turned to
horror quite quickly when the alligator attacked,
biting a chunk out of the handler's leg.
Ah! Pranked you guys! Uh!
Practice is over.
Number three is the Cheating Prank.
In 2008, a woman identified only as Andrea
called into a local radio station in Portland, Oregon
on Valentine's Day to win tickets to Kanye West's concert.
To win them, Andrea agreed to prank her husband Pete
live on the radio by calling him and saying that
their nine year old son wasn't, in fact, his.
But wait, it gets better.
To win the tickets, he had to say,
"It's okay. I still love you."
Well, she did it.
Except that, in a shocking turn of events, he blurted out,
"I've been screwing your sister for the last year."
From there, things got ugly,
they broke up, and what's worst,
she didn't even win the Kanye West tickets.
Andrea, I'm really happy for ya, and I'mma let you finish,
but I just wanna let you know
that this prank is the worst prank of all time.
Number four is the Lamborghini Poop Prank.
Erik Meldik and Cenek Styblo are popular Czech YouTubers
who came to America in 2014.
After getting cut-off on the road
by a Lamborghini driver, they actually followed him,
and decided to prank him by placing a fake poop,
that they purchased from a joke shop, on his luxury car.
The unidentified Lamborghini driver
suddenly emerged to find one of the pranksters
pulling up his pants next to the poop.
And in response, the elderly man
whipped out his taser and shot Cenek in the back.
They soon after decided to take
their pranks back with them to Europe.
Hey, it isn't a prank unless there's
some risk of getting tased.
Bro, this prank is going to so good, bro. Just wait--
(taser buzz) Aye, mama!
Number five is the Bomb Prank.
In 2011, 18 year old Tyell Morton,
a senior at Rushville High in Indiana,
decided on his last day that he would pull a prank
and go out with a bang, literally.
He was caught by surveillance cameras
entering a female change room through a window
with a package and leaving empty handed.
School officials responded by evacuating the premises
and calling the Indiana State bomb squad,
costing the school $8000.
As it turns out, it wasn't a bomb,
but instead, an inflatable sex doll.
Tyell was arrested and could've spent
up to eight years in jail, except that luckily
he only received a few weeks of community service.
Bro, what are you doing? We live in the age of like,
everyone is afraid of everything, especially bombs.
And why a sex doll?
So many questions.
Number six is the Sprinkler Prank.
In 2012, Carson Dean a 14 year old student
at Wellington Secondary School in Nanaimo, B.C.
tried to prank his friend by locking his locker padlock
to a sprinkler during lunch break.
Ha ha, except it didn't work out.
In the process of attempting to fasten the lock,
he set off the entire sprinkler system, which ended up
causing some serious water damage to the entire building.
Three years and a Supreme Court ruling later,
the kid was left with a $48,000 bill
to offset the cost of the damages
from the prank that went wrong.
Folks, if you've ever learned anything
from what you've seen through pranks going wrong,
don't mess with toilets, don't mess with sprinkler systems,
Just stay away from water in general. It's just bad news.
Number seven is the Weed Muffin Prank.
Joseph Tellini and Ian Walker were in their senior year
of high school in Dallas, Texas in 2006.
They thought up a lovely way that they could
thank the faculty for their years of hard work
by baking them some muffins.
And then decided to make it a prank
by adding marijuana to the recipe.
Unfortunately, the teachers at this school
clearly are not the types to indulge in the green stuff,
because within only hours, 19 members of the staff
had taken ill and were rushed to the nearest emergency room.
One teacher even said, "It affected me for 10 days.
I had never had marijuana before."
The boys pleaded guilty to several charges
and were sentenced to pay restitution and do volunteer work.
These muffins are great, man.
This one's talkin' to me.
Number eight is the Fake Hangman Prank.
On Halloween in 2004, Randy Wood called
his ex-wife and told her to come over
to his place in Oswego County, New York.
The man was bitter about his divorce
and wanted to get back at his ex-wife via a prank.
As soon as she arrived, she found her ex-husband
hanging by a noose from a tree in their front garden.
Panicking, she immediately called 911,
thinking that he was dead.
When a fireman went to cut down the wood,
they found a concealed harness supporting his body weight.
He was victorious in getting back at his ex-wife,
but was then fined $1000 and sent to jail for a year.
My man, you just never make jokes about suicide.
That's just not funny. If you really want to
get back at your ex-wife, just, I don't know,
poop on her doorstep or something.
I don't know. Don't look at me.
You're the one with the crazy ideas.
Number nine is the Fake Royalty Prank.
When Kate Middleton was pregnant in 2012
and checked into King Edward VII's Hospital,
there was a media frenzy, due to the speculation
around the name and gender of her first child.
Australian radio DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian
decided to prank call the hospital,
posing as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles.
And unbelievably, their ridiculous accents
were enough to convince a nurse to forward
them through to the Princess' private nurse.
That private nurse then commenced in disclosing
the details of Kate's condition and the gender of the baby.
The DJs now had a worldwide exclusive on their hands.
Except that things took a turn for the worse
when the nurse committed suicide
three days later after all the embarrassment
from making such a publicized mistake.
I'm glad you guys got your exclusive.
You're a bunch of dicks.
And number ten, the Real Hangman.
In 2013, 16 year old Jordan Morlan of Louisville
decided that since it was a few days
before Halloween, he would play a prank.
He had been attempting to scare his little sister
with Halloween decorations all day long.
When that didn't work, he noticed that
his family had hung a noose out on the front yard.
So young Jordan slipped his head inside.
Except that the prank didn't go as planned.
Shortly after, his sister found
his body hanging lifelessly, and although
the paramedics tried to save the young boy,
sadly, it was too late and the prank cost him his life.
Guys, in all seriousness, I know that
pranks are popular, but do them safely.
Do fart pranks or something like that.
Don't do anything that's gonna
cost you your life or someone else's.
Life is precious. Remember that.
