Practical Joke - Will It Work?

[hyatt]

Tee into a vacumn line and put the other end into a quart of trans fluid hidden low in engine dept It will smoke like he blew it up

In highschool I hooked up a headlight to a horn, and it seems like we (high school automechanics what else are you going to do) hooked up the blinkers to the windshield wipers on one of the teachers vehicles.

On my brothers car I got the brilliant idea to turn the windshield squirter nozzles out so that when my brother was cruising (do they still call it cruising) he could spray people in the car next to him or on the sidewalk.

I hooked up a reverse beeper to a co workers head lights once. my brother had a jacked up jeep with a 350 and 44"s we called it mighty mouse and had a cartoon of mighty mouse on the tailgate. We drilled a hole where mighty mouse's mighty mouse would be stuck a washer pump hose out of it. It would squirt people behind us.

we used to point it to passenger side so you can spray bicyclers. heh. they get really mad but not as mad as when you hang out the window with a Super Soaker.

How about rigging it to the brake pedal so its fine when he gets in but bombs when he puts his foot on the brake!

KipKay (youtube) did a video "how to" on taking an automatic air freshener apart and filling it with liquid @ss. If you could get one of those to work on 12v, would be possible!

Reminds me of another: Confetti and flour in the AC vents. Warning...has a few curse words from the target:

Confetti and baby powder prank on girlfriend -...

I remember also seeing a video on youtube, where a guy was pranking his friend. He took a "donut" wheel and painted it bright pink, then swapped out his buddies front tire/wheel with the pink donut tire. Video taped the whole thing, including following him home at a distance, in his car.

Another one: take a piece of raw chicken and put it in a zip lock bag. Don't zip the bag close, and place it under the seat, or under the dash somewhere. It will be slow and gradual, until it becomes unbearable.

A few years ago, our youngest son (23 at the time) was visiting us. I had picked up a little device called the Annoy-a-tron from "think geek."

One of the sound effects is a cricket and you can set it to randomly chirp. Very realistic. I hid it in the bottom of our grandon's toy box, at the foot of the bed. About an hour after he went to bed, I heard a lot of commotion from the room and finally he came out, cursing that "d@mn cricket" because he couldn't find it.

I lasted all of thirty seconds before I burst out laughing and had to give in on the joke!

Here is one for the guy you don't like, lets say a little revenge prank. 1 Pint of milk down the defrosters. The smell NEVER goes away.

Grease the door handles is always a good one too.

Change out his speedo gears.

LOL!!! If it works that would be awesome.


When my dad got married (winter time) i smeared Vaseline on the back of the steering wheel and the heater controls after i set them on high defrost and poured rice down the defroster... He was pissed

Put it up on blocks and steal his wheels.

Yes, the truck will go backwards.

I've never tried it, but apparantly, you can't reach through the vent window and push the button on the outside door handle.

This is good.

Rubber cement a whistle to the inside of one of the tires. Sounds annoying but it goes away when you slow down. Don't use super glue...

on a diesel motor we once took a wire with an alligator clip at one end and attached it to the fuel shutoff solenoid on the injection pump and then hooked the other end to the battery. it constantly sends power to the solenoid so that when the key was turned off the motor kept running, it was some funny stuff. this was on an old mechanical motor, not sure how it would work with the newer electronics

[leftybass209]

This thread sure went off topic...

good prank with no damage , take a 5 foot hose insert in the tailpipe , make sure it reaches the muffler , poor in some 3and 1 oil and blow it into the muffler , it wont start to smoke until you drive a couple of miles

[buddylj1990]

runs wire from spark plug wire to seat when he fires it up it shock the piss out of him done it to a friend before funny stuff

[midniteblues]

while i dont agree with messin with someones truck.
innocent lil' pranks dont hurt.

tie one end of a string too the rear frame rail(or something back there) and the other too a aluminum can. and stand the can up inside the rear bumper.

first bump they hit it comes tumbling out and bounces after them on the ground.

surely a wtf moment.

Back in my day..... mid/late 70s and early 80s, I would pour ATF down the intake. All of it. Man.... the smoke. One friend was pulled over by the police because they thought his truck was on fire. And yes, they did it to me as well....

[DWilbur]

Install a horn from locomotive train under the bed of the truck and hook it up the 2,000lb nitrogen bottle wire the switch to the brake pedal. I guarantee it will make him s*** his pants.
