Creative April Fool's Day pranks, jokes and tricks

UNIQUE AND FUN PRANKS

Accidentally On Purpose >> new <<

Did someone you know leave out an important paper, project, homework, etc.? Then you have a perfect opportunity for a fun prank! Just take some paper that looks somewhat similar to their project. Set their real project aside, and spill a drink or something messy all over the fake project. Say "Oh My God!" and pretend to apologize. They’ll have a major anxiety attack until you surprise them with “April Fool’s!”

Chewy

Offer to make a sandwich for the victim. But don’t remove the wrapper from the slice of cheese. When they bite down they’ll get a chewy surprise.

Soggy Socks >> new <<

Carefully place small water balloons in the toe your victim’s shoes. They’ll get a wet surprise! (Be sure to only do this on inexpensive shoes.)

Sour Joke

Put a few drops of green food coloring in the milk to make it look as if it has soured.  When someone pours it in the morning, they will think it has gone bad.

Drenched

Before you begin, practice the following trick: place a coin on your head, hold your arms straight out to your sides, and drop the coin into a funnel that is inserted into the beltline of your pants. Once you can do this well, find the victim and tell him you learned a trick that is very difficult to master. Perform the trick. Most likely the victim will ask to try it themselves. Right before they drop the coin, take a glass of ice-cold water that you have placed nearby and pour it into the funnel.

Take a few pages from the inside of last week’s newspaper, and substitute them for today’s issue. (Sports pages work great, or comics—whatever is the victim’s favorite section!).

Sky Is Falling >> new <<

Recruit a friend to help you with this prank. While the victim is sleeping, and it is still dark in the room, hold a white bed-sheet above them. Then suddenly awaken them, and release the sheet, or pull it down, so that it would seem as if the ceiling is falling! Make sure that the victim is looking straight up.

Don't Cry Over Spilled Beer

Tell a friend that you know a great trick. Put your hand palm-down on the table and balance a full glass of beer (or any liquid) on the back of your hand. Bet your friend that they can’t balance a glass on both hands at once (with your help to put them in place). As soon as you have the glasses balanced, stand up and walk out. They will be trapped and will have to spill the beers to escape.

Got It Covered

While at the beach: wait for your victim to leave for a few minutes. Then pick up their towel, dig a hole and cover it with the towel. When they get back they will “fall” for your trick.

Tug of War

This prank can be pulled on two victims who have bedroom doors directly across the hall from each other (dorms usually work well for this). Use a rope to tie both door knobs to each other, with just enough slack to allow one door to open a crack. Then knock loudly on both doors at the same time. The victims will end up in a tug of war trying to get out.
