April Fool's Day: ideas for jokes and practical jokes. April Fool's Day: ideas for jokes and pranks Children's harmless pranks for April 1

Order a call from a celebrity to the person you want to prank: Putin, Zhirinovsky or a famous artist! You can also choose the topic of the call: April 1, birthday, some holiday. Just imagine that Putin calls your friend in the morning and personally congratulates him on the holiday, or the famous politician Vladimir Zhirinovsky. I can just imagine your friend's face. I assure you, you and your friend will get a lot of unforgettable minutes!

This prank is good for a person who often uses a computer, but is not very confident. Although an experienced user will probably also be discouraged for a few minutes.
So, step by step instructions:
Step 1. Lure the “victim” out from behind the computer and send him for a walk out of sight and earshot for 5-10 (or more) minutes.
Step 2. Create the appearance of work on the desktop. For example, we open a text editor and write the phrase “Hello, world!” there.
Step 3. Take a screenshot (press PrintScreen on the keyboard).
Step 4. Open the Paint program and paste our image from the clipboard (Ctrl+V).
Step 5. Save the document, remember the path to it, close the graphic editor.
Step 6. Find our picture in Explorer, right-click on it and select “Set as desktop background image.”
Step 7. We wait for the victim and enjoy the result at a safe distance.

You can play a very funny prank on people on the subway. Enter the carriage at one of the stops and, after waiting a little, go to the button to call the driver. Next, by pressing it (of course, only pretending), you need to say loudly: “Two cokes and a hamburger, please, into the carriage numbered...”. And then calmly wait for the next stop, at which the accomplice must enter and loudly ask: “Who ordered two cokes and a hamburger?” After receiving payment, the accomplice must leave. As soon as the train starts moving, you need to go to the call button again and say loudly: “To the final station without stopping, please.”

The prank may be a little childish, but at the same time it is cruel, so if you prank someone this way, you know for sure that no one will be seriously offended... After February 14, there was only one unnecessary, but incredibly beautiful Valentine left. Everyone in the team has guys who, one way or another, tease the “weaker” sex. In my opinion, this joke is just for them. We take a valentine and nicely cut it in the middle into two parts. We sign: “Find your soul mate!” and discreetly place it on the table, in outerwear (pocket), maybe in a bag. Where our victim will find it in a short time. Well, I think it’s clear here that we put the halves on one floor (two guys or two girls). It will be especially funny if the entire department is the audience.

With the help of this prank, the funniest thing is to joke on a person who is very scrupulous about the cleanliness of his things and appearance. You need to mix the Purgen tablet and a little ammonia, the result is a red-pink solution. It is poured into a cup and, when the opportunity arises, “accidentally” poured onto the unfortunate person being played. You can pretend that it was cherry juice, which, as you know, does not wash well.
After a few seconds, the stains will, of course, disappear as the ammonia evaporates. But it’s better, just in case, to first carry out this experiment at home on an unnecessary piece of light-colored material in order to completely eliminate the possibility of ruining someone else’s thing.

This draw can be thought of as a bet. You hand your friend 100 rubles and say: “The store slipped a counterfeit bill. Let's bet you 100 rubles that you won't find the difference from the real thing? I searched for half a day and barely found it.” At the end of the draw, you either enjoy an extra hundred or reveal the secret.

To play the prank, you need to get up a little earlier than usual, and agree in advance with your friend’s wife to play along with you, call early in the morning and say that he is late for work, call his wife a little later and make an appointment, and before your friend arrives you set the table and look at his surprised reaction, tell him about your long-standing hidden feelings and that you have long wanted to confess to him that... today is April 1st!

We need preferably a young married couple. They are sitting at home, the windows overlook the courtyard. All conditions have been created in the room, as if there was a party going on (lights or color music). The windows are open, loud music is playing (during the day). Goal: to a group of friends to play a prank on a friend who does not know that married couple. Previously, he is invited to this courtyard, they say, everyone in the apartment is going to a party. When the person being pranked arrives, he is told that there is a party in that apartment, not everyone has gathered yet, but there is a very beautiful girl there. She has a guy with her (someone's friend) who is trying to win her over, but she refuses him. All this time, our couple should stand at the window and pretend to have a slight quarrel. You need to briefly explain so that the person being pranked gets up, calls, and explains to the guy that he is the odd one out, and that now it’s “his turn” to win the lady. When the joyful guy gets up and rings the doorbell, during a short conversation he is shown a passport with a stamp.

April 1 is celebrated around the world as April Fool's Day, or April Fool's Day. It is not known for certain where the tradition of “honoring” the gullible and simple-minded came from on this particular day, but the holiday is still alive.

history of the holiday

The tradition supposedly comes from the Middle Ages, and the first written mention of the first of April as a day of practical jokes (Fools Holiday) was recorded in 1686. The fashion for pranking those near and far by publishing stupid advertisements in newspapers came from Britain: as you know, one of the first pranks of this kind was an invitation to wash the white lions in the Tower.

In Russia, the holiday appeared and took root with Peter I. It was he, according to legend, who was the author of the first national April Fool's joke - an invitation to an “unheard-of performance”, at which simpletons were greeted by a poster: “April 1st - don’t trust anyone!”

One of the most famous April Fool's jokes is a 1957 BBC News broadcast about spaghetti harvested from trees.

In Russia, making jokes in the media on April 1 has become fashionable since late Soviet times. Some jokes were successful, some were not so good, however, they were all quickly forgotten, and every year the media comes up with something new. Although Russia recently passed a law on fake news, potential pranksters have already been reassured that no one will be punished for innocent April Fools' pranks.

Cool April 1st pranks for the office

There are a huge number of resources on the Internet that promise to teach you how to play a sparkling joke on your colleagues on April 1st. Unfortunately, all these simple pranks revolve around the phrase “who lost a hundred dollars,” taping a phone over a phone, or gluing a computer mouse to a table.

One office worker, on condition of anonymity, told how he harshly pranked an employee, because of whose carelessness their department lost a lucrative order and was left without a bonus.

The lazy employee was not a fool to drink and in this altered state actively entered into close contacts with “girls of reduced social responsibility.” “On behalf of” one such girl, on April 1, he received a letter that he had become a happy father...

The guy, who had just gotten happily married and even quit drinking, was so scared that when he found out it was an April Fool's joke, he immediately quit.

However, as statistics show, office pranks are mostly innocent in nature.

Draws for April 1st for SMS

Here, too, Internet offers do not shine with originality. Basically, the content of supposedly humorous SMS messages is made in the spirit, they say, stop talking too much, otherwise your tariff will be called “Done.” Naturally, all this with one degree or another of obscenity, which, as you know, is now strictly prohibited in the media.

Here are some more examples of jokes that, according to the authors, can amuse your friends on April 1st.

“There are times in men’s lives when they are absolutely indifferent to women. These are the first, second and third periods of hockey.”

“Hello, dear subscriber! We would like to thank you for your loyalty, congratulate you on April Fool’s Day, and just for fun, we’ll write off a thousand rubles from your account. Your mobile operator."

“I found out what stone you have from your horoscope! Judging by your face, it’s a brick.”

“Look to your left. Look to the right. Look up. Don’t you feel like a fool?!”

Etc., etc. And that’s not even counting the outright obscenity.

So, rather than practicing idiotic pranks, it’s better to just congratulate your friends on April Fool’s Day.

So laugh together, people.

April 1 is a holiday of humor and laughter, so you need to try to make a funny joke, prank one of your loved ones, friends, acquaintances, colleagues and classmates. After all, it is on this day that one is allowed to carry out petty mischief, to abuse others on completely “legal” grounds.
Moreover, you can do this with almost impunity, because such a holiday is April Fool's Day - why be offended!

The main rule is that all the jokes that you manage to pull off must be harmless, so that afterwards you and the “victim” can have a good laugh about what happened.

So, what's so funny you can come up with for a good April Fool's prank, a funny joke?

Homemade jokes

The first targets for divorce, as a rule, are family members or close friends with whom you share a common living space.
Therefore, there will be no difficulty in getting their personal item or shared items.
So we offer the best ideas!

Place crumpled newspaper in shoes

This will reduce its actual size and make it extremely difficult to put on shoes. In this way, you can make fun of your family who are getting ready for work in the morning or your friends who have dropped by to visit you.

By the way, instead of paper, you can insert a slightly inflated balloon. And then enjoy the expression on the face of your “victim” when she feels her foot sink into something soft and shapeless.

Sew up the sleeves

For such a joke, you can use a shirt, sweater, jacket or even a jacket.
It is better to do this with large stitches so that after such a joke the item does not end up being damaged.
It will also be funny if you sew up the legs of your trousers or the pockets of your clothes.
You can develop the idea even further and sew the duvet cover to the sheet. It is better to do this by stepping back approximately 10–20 cm from the edge of the bed.

Paint your nails

Of course, you won’t surprise a girl in this way, so the man should be the object of the joke. Early in the morning, while he is still sleeping, give him a bright manicure. Don't forget to buy nail polish remover in advance!

Seal the doorway

It is recommended to use cling film for this. When stretched, it is almost completely transparent. The main thing is to straighten it so that there is not a single wrinkle. It will be very funny when someone runs into an invisible obstacle while running.

Jelly with a straw

The essence of the scam is that you offer to drink juice through a straw, but instead make jelly in a glass.

Freeze draw

It's best to use car or office keys for this joke. They need to be placed in a cup the night before, filled with water and placed in the freezer.
In the morning, when it’s time to rush to work, your “victim” will be in for a surprise. She will have to quickly warm up the cup or take it with her to work so that the ice melts along the way.

Head in a jar

Of course, we are not talking about a real head! You need to print any face from the Internet on A4 photo paper. Then roll the photo into a tube, insert it into a three-liter jar and pour water into it. You will get the effect of a voluminous head.
All that remains is to put the jar in the refrigerator and enjoy the wild screams of the one who opens it.

Tasty breakfast

Option #1

Make some tricky eggs. Instead of protein, pour thick white yogurt, instead of yolk - half a peach. Serve and watch the reaction.

Option No. 2

Prepare milk porridge the night before and put it in the freezer. In the morning, as if nothing had happened, offer to have breakfast with healthy porridge. After the drawing, don’t forget to warm up breakfast and feed your family without any jokes.

Option No. 3

Add gelatin to milk. The milk will hold tightly in the glass so that it is impossible to drink it.

Fun in the shower

There are many options for such jokes:

Lubricate the toothbrush with sharp ketchup, and then wash it off (the point is that after this there will be a bitterness on the brush, which will be immediately felt by the one who starts brushing your teeth);

Pour mayonnaise or milk into a jar of shampoo;

Unscrew the shower diffuser, put a chicken broth cube inside and screw it into place;

Pour flour into the hairdryer;

Cover the soap with clear nail polish;

Choose a shaving cream similar to paste and put it in your bath accessories instead of toothpaste.

The coolest prank in the shower is writing soap on the mirror. This could be a phrase like “You’re next” or “I’ll come for you.” When the inscription dries, it will become invisible. But as soon as the bathroom is filled with steam after taking a shower, all the letters will appear.

Various jokes for colleagues or friends

How can you ignore your friends and colleagues on April Fool's Day?! For them, so dear and beloved, it’s worth coming up with something more serious than glued pens (pencils, sheets of paper, etc.)!

Office jokes

1. Make a box without a bottom, fill it with confetti (snacks, paper clips, etc.), write on it in large letters “Gift” (“To the Most Beautiful,” “Prize,” etc.) and place it in a visible place . As soon as someone picks up the box, its contents will spill out and everyone around will have fun.

2. Give your colleagues a pen with ink that disappears after half an hour.

3. Pour nail polish onto wax paper and let it dry. Then carefully remove the resulting blot and transfer it to some document. Now take the open bottle of nail polish in your hand, put a look of horror on your face and start apologizing loudly.

4. Place counterfeit money in a visible place in the office. On the reverse side, sign “From April 1st!” Anyone who reaches out for “other people’s” money will appreciate this joke.

5. Using tape, attach the balloon to the wall towards which the door opens. And glue the button opposite the ball onto the door itself. Now, as soon as someone opens the door, the button will stick into the ball and a loud bang will sound.

6. Cut a wide strip of orange peels, draw a few thick vertical lines on it with a black marker and insert it in front of your teeth. With such a charming smile you can approach anyone and congratulate them on the holiday.

7. Coat the pencil lead with clear nail polish. Nobody can write anything to them.

8. Invisibly tie a plastic cup to the bag by a thread, which stands on the table and will fall from it when the hostess takes the bag. You can pour water into a glass, but this will no longer be a completely harmless joke.

Orders for salary increases

On the information board in the morning, you should place a nice announcement in the form of a fake order, where you can announce a day off for employees for something, or an order to increase wages, etc.

How do you feel?!

Agree in advance with your colleagues that they will ask the same thing from the “object” chosen for jokes. When the object appears, you need to pretend that it looks very bad and ask leading questions.
For example:
Did you stay out all night last night, buddy?
This is “Your face is Sharapov!”
Go to the toilet, clean yourself up, otherwise the boss won’t understand!

Such different desires

Invisibly stick a sticker with various inscriptions on your back.
For example:
1. I'm looking for a husband. Telephone (specify).
2. I’m losing weight - offer only buns with cottage cheese!
3. Ask me out on a date!
4. Call me today “My bunny!” Angela."

There's something wrong with you

The most common joke. On April 1, when you see your friend, you need to say with confidence that something is wrong with him (her).
For example, white back, torn knee, torn elbow, dirty face, etc. You need to speak with a serious face, insisting on what you “saw”, so that the addressee will not be able to realize for a long time that they are joking with him.

April Fool's jokes for your wife, beloved

And, of course, the most important draw on April 1 should be organized for your “other half”.

Surprise in a box

Prepare a gift for her using the famous multiple-wrapping trick. Only this time, put a note in the gift box with the text “Happy April Fool’s Day.”
Try to wrap the box with paper as many times as possible, put the package in other boxes and seal them with tape. The longer you have to fiddle around to get a gift, the cooler the prank will be.
By the way, don’t forget to buy a real gift to give after you laugh at the prank together.

Gift with delivery

Continuing the theme of gifts, we offer an even larger raffle. Buy your loved one a large soft toy, a box of chocolates or something else of your choice. The main thing is that the gift is wrapped in special wrapping paper!

In this prank, you will need the help of a friend whom your girlfriend does not know personally. He will have to play the role of a courier and bring these gifts to her home.
After delivery, you need to wait about 30 minutes so that the girl has time to remove the wrappers and eat a few candies.
Then the courier returns and says that he has the wrong address and needs to pick up the gifts. He should try to express his maximum dissatisfaction with the fact that the packaging is damaged and the box of chocolates is open. It is important that he does not overdo it and does not make your wife cry.
At the most critical moment, you appear in the apartment, announce that it was a prank, return all the gifts and, in addition, present a large bouquet of flowers.

Fake offer

If your loved one has a good sense of humor, then here is another prank for her. Buy a small cup with a rounded gold-plated handle and a box similar to those used to package jewelry. Place the cup in it so that the handle sticks up, cover it with tinsel. Place a cardboard partition on top with a slot through which the rounded part of the handle will look out, and also sprinkle with a thin layer of tinsel. Everything should look as if there is a ring in the box.
On April 1, organize an appropriate romantic atmosphere and give the girl a box. Then watch her reaction and be ready to dodge the cup flying at you.
It should be noted that this is a very tough prank for a girl who really dreams of getting a marriage proposal from you! Therefore, you can arrange such a “surprise” only if you are sure that she will understand everything correctly and appreciate your sense of humor.

Fake Lover

Girls can also really “tickle the nerves” of their boyfriend on the occasion of the holiday of laughter. Ask friends you know for items of men's clothing and shoes. Then, while he is at work, make a “path” of scattered things in the apartment from the front door to your bedroom (your clothes and underwear mixed with men’s). Make a mess on the bed and create a semblance of a human figure under the blanket so that from the outside it appears that someone is lying there.
For greater effect, arrange with one of your boyfriend’s friends to tell him how he saw you and an unfamiliar young man entering the entrance of the house. You can wait for your boyfriend in bed or pretend that you just got out of the shower. Just try to predict his reaction in advance in order to avoid a serious quarrel and bring the prank to its conclusion.

To my beloved husband

What's wrong with your car?!

Option #1
Tie ropes with metal cans at the other ends to the bumper of the car. Hide the entire structure under the car and wait for it to move.

Option No. 2
Place dry peas in a plastic or plastic box. Tape it to the bottom of the machine. Noise while driving is guaranteed and panic too!

Option No. 3
Stick a message on the windshield: “Today I hit (hit, scratched) your car. I apologize, call me, we’ll come to an agreement!” Write phone number. If the call takes place, congratulate you on April Fools' Day. Another version of the letter: “You hit my car. Video recording is available. Call us and we’ll make an agreement!”

Option No. 4
You can “inject” a small amount of powdered sulfur into your car’s muffler. When the car is started and the muffler begins to warm up, blue smoke with an unpleasant odor will begin to pour out, which will confuse anyone, do not forget to immediately congratulate your husband on the holiday and reassure him.

Boots

Option #1
If the boots are very dirty, you should put one in order and leave the other in its original form. Place a sticker or postcard in a dirty shoe with the inscription “Happy April 1, dear!”

Option No. 2
Tie the shoe laces tightly together. A greeting card for April 1 can be signed “Together and forever!”

Pranks that are suitable for any occasion

With food

1. Pour crackers or snacks into a cat food bag, then sit in front of your colleagues and devour the contents with gusto. Similarly, you can pour powdered milk into a packet of washing powder or insert Mamba chewing candies into a glue stick case.

2. Treat your friend to a sandwich with a rubber cockroach placed under a piece of sausage.

3. Order a cocktail to a friend and, as soon as your companion turns away for a minute, make a hole in the straw with a needle. Then have fun watching him try in vain to finish his cocktail.

4. Treat your friend to a cola with ice. The point of the prank is that the ice must be unusual - you must first freeze a Mentos candy inside it. When the ice around the candy melts, a violent reaction will occur from the interaction of cola and mentos - a fountain will begin to flow from the glass!

5. Lubricate the neck of a soda bottle with a head of garlic and treat it to a friend.

Pranks using your phone

1. Download the “Scare a Friend” application or animated horror pictures to your phone and send such a surprise to your friend in a message.

2. Change the signatures in your contacts on your friend’s phone and call him on behalf of his boss, his girlfriend, parents, etc.

3. Install the “Add ghost to photo” application on your phone. Then take a photo of your friend, quickly edit the photo and immediately show it to him. He must believe that this is a real photo that was just taken.

4. Download the Dude Your Car program. Then take a photo of your friend’s car and edit the picture so that it looks like the car has been in an accident. All you have to do is wait until your friend leaves the car in the parking lot and you can send him a message.

5. One of the most fun pranks you can play using your phone is to download the Smart TV Remote app. After this, you will be able to control any TV: switch channels, adjust the volume. Put on this “show” at home while someone else is watching TV, in the office, or go with a friend to an electrical store and have a lot of fun.

6. There is another similar program that allows you to control a computer mouse or connect to a keyboard via your phone. Play a prank on a colleague or friend by starting to type various nonsense on his computer and open all the folders in a row.

Computer jokes

1. Set an alarm clock on your computer with a cool sound and turn up the volume to maximum. Let it work at the most inopportune moment: during a meeting, during a computer science lesson, when mom is watching her favorite TV series, etc.

2. Download a picture of a cracked monitor screen from the Internet and install it on your computer as a screensaver. Be sure to discreetly disconnect the cords from your mouse and keyboard. Your friend will be shocked, thinking that his PC is corrupted.

3. If you don’t want to bother too much, you can cover the hole for the LED sensor on your computer mouse with tape. To make it more fun, place a picture with a funny inscription under the tape. When your friend fiddles with a non-working mouse for about five minutes, he will think of turning it over and understand the essence of the joke.

In conclusion, one more useful tip. To draw on April 1, you don’t have to think and prepare for a long time. You can look into a joke store on the eve of the holiday. There will definitely be an interesting thing there that will help make this day unforgettable: a fart pillow, a sippy cup, sweets with pepper, deodorant with an unpleasant smell - this is not a complete list of things that can be found in such establishments.
And then - from April 1st! And it all depends on your imagination!

There are literally a few hours left until the holiday, which some consider meaningless and merciless, while others see it as an excellent reason to joke. April 1, also known as April Fool's Day, forces us to be careful when communicating with friends, or to use our creativity and sense of humor to the fullest. If you don’t want or don’t have time to come up with your own prank, we offer you a dozen time-tested April Fool’s jokes.

Classics of the genre

1. If we discard the vulgar “your whole back is white,” then the most indestructible classic is moving all the clocks in the house forward an hour. The “victim” gets up an hour earlier by the alarm clock and goes about his business through the morning darkness. And he doesn’t even suspect that he will have to wait another hour for the meeting/the start of the working day/the opening of the museum.

2. Fill the bottom of a glass with toothbrushes with Moment glue. Primitive? Yes, but in the morning you are guaranteed the rage and bewilderment of your relatives.

3. Tonight, before going to bed, hide all your slippers. The effect is similar to the previous point.

4. If your family has gourmets with a keen sense of beauty, skip this point. In other cases, good old salt in a sugar bowl works like clockwork, no matter how old this “trick” is.

5. In recent years, a prank with soap and nail polish has become popular thanks to public pages on VKontakte. Actually, you take soap and clear nail polish. The first is covered with the last, and after drying it cannot be distinguished from ordinary soap by appearance. But an attempt to “soap” such a piece turns into a fiasco for the unknowing “victim”.

6. Food coloring can help you! You can use it as a joke in many ways (fortunately, regular dyes are safe), but the most popular way is to dye your toothbrush overnight. I wonder why people joke about hygiene products so often?..

If you have a working day ahead

Maybe it happens that you have to spend this Saturday at work? Well, maybe some office pranks might come in handy.

7. An optical computer mouse can be sealed from the bottom with a piece of tape. Before your colleague realizes what's going on, he will be convinced for some time that the most important part of the computer has become unusable.

8. Give or lend a banknote to a colleague. Just make a reservation that it is better not to insert it into the ATM. For a long time and painfully, your “victim” will search for signs of counterfeit on the banknote.

9. If you have a particularly curious person at work, take a cardboard box with the bottom cut out or simply poorly secured. Place a variety of things in it, and write something like “do not touch” or “personal items” on the outside. Then leave the room and wait for the person being played to enter it. Then walk into the noise of things falling out and watch the reaction.

Creative approach

There are many unusual ways to prank others. We offer one of them.

10. You make an agreement with your friend and go buy some takeaway food at the nearest fast food outlet. Then you get on the metro and your friend leaves for the nearest station. On the next train, you enter the same carriage, during the trip, go to the “passenger-driver” communication button and pretend to speak into the microphone. Say the following loudly and clearly: “Hamburger, country fries and a small Coke!” At the next station, a friend, to the surprise of those around you, solemnly hands you a package with your order.

Whatever prank you pull off, don’t forget to congratulate your friend on April 1st and say that it was a joke. Friendship is more valuable!

Each person probably played a prank on their friends, relatives, teachers and just acquaintances on the day of deception. And many of them will do this next year, be it a teacher, a colleague, a classmate, a mother or a father. A few tips on how to prank your neighbor will help you. Just don’t forget - laughter can be good or evil, and jokes can be witty or stupid, choose for yourself what you like best. You can practice these draws both on regular days and on April 1st.

1. This giveaway must take place in a home, not outdoor setting, although if you can use it in another way, well done! With its help, you can prank your boyfriend, girlfriend, parents, even your teacher. For the drawing you will need a small box, bright wrapping paper, a felt-tip pen, and confetti. Cover the box with wrapping paper so that it is bright and eye-catching; for the same purposes, you can write on it something like “Candy”, “Don’t touch it, it will kill you!” or "Take me." The box should not have a bottom. Place it in a high place (so that it is higher than human height), on a cabinet, for example. Fill the box with confetti, and if the “object” you are pranking has a good sense of humor or, on the contrary, really annoys you, fill the box with some garbage (gnawed bones, potato peels, garlic, onions, so that it smells nicer). The “object” enters the room and sees the box. She attracts his attention and he takes her off. But the box has no bottom! Fireworks are guaranteed if there is confetti in the box, and something less pleasant than fireworks if there is trash.

2. Call your neighbors and say in a calm, non-threatening voice that they called you from the telephone exchange and warned that an electric current will be released through the telephone wire in connection with the repair of the telephone line. Draw their attention to the fact that they should not answer calls for 10 minutes to avoid loss of life. After 15 minutes, call your neighbors and, if they answer the phone, let out an inhuman scream. They'll probably think you've been electrocuted.

3. Tell your friends that in 15 minutes hot steam will be released through the telephone wire, so you need to wrap the telephone handsets in a towel and plastic and place them on the floor. And then it’s up to you, you must have time to run around everyone to check who believed in your joke.

4. Explain to a friend or acquaintance who does not understand computers the rules for using e-mail. And by chance you remember that just now they should have sent you 500 rubles by email. Having previously placed the specified amounts in the drive, you pull them out of there in front of the amazed student. Miracle of technology!

5. Recruit a few of your friends for this giveaway. You enter a subway car, go to the button to communicate with the driver, and pretend that you are communicating with him. Loudly: “Pizza and a large cola in carriage No...” (you call the carriage number). At the next stop, your accomplice comes in with your order (preferably in appropriate clothing). You pick up your order, pay, and your assistant comes out immediately. You get in touch with the driver again: “Until the final stop without stopping.” The reaction of passengers is indescribable.

6. You and a company (it’s better if there are more of you) are traveling by river transport (you can use land transport, but, for example, on a bridge under which a river flows). You suddenly shout loudly something like “Sharks!” or “Look! Whale!". All passengers look overboard.

7. This prank is best done for a teacher. If there is snow outside, make a snowball (a lump of snow). During recess, while the teacher is not in class, you attach it to the ceiling directly above the teacher's desk. If you're lucky, the snowball, having melted, will fall right on the teacher's head (like snow on his head, as they say), if not, that's okay: the snowball will plop down on the teacher's desk. The main thing is that your class is friendly and no one gives away the secret of who was the author of the prank.

8. Take a box of powder or something else chemical, empty the contents, insert a plastic bag with some treat of the same color into it. You can eat this on a bus or tram in front of dozens of people. Perhaps someone will want to save you, and someone will ask for a treat.

9. A prank for a fun company. One person runs past a crowded area (bus stop, etc.) and asks people to cover him. In this case, it is necessary to depict some wild animal: a tiger (the hero wears a striped sweater and makes scary faces), a deer (his arms fan above his head). After 15-20 seconds, a whole company of “hunters” runs past the same stop, toy guns in their hands, asking the people at the stop: “Have you seen a tiger (deer)?” It is guaranteed that they will not soon forget this hunt.

11. Dress with a friend in the same clothes, it is best if the jacket has a hood. You are standing at one bus stop (it’s more fun to play a prank in the subway), and your friend is at the next one. When the bus approaches, you supposedly don’t have time to get on it and run after it. When the bus comes to the next stop, your friend gets on, pretending to be very out of breath from running, and says: “I’ve completely lost my dexterity.” Next time you change places, and you observe the reaction of the people.

12. Find a long rope and ask a passerby on the street (near the house) to hold it, then after 5 minutes walk around the house. At this time, you walk around the house yourself so that the first passer-by does not see you. You find another “victim”, hand her the second end of the rope, and ask her to do the same. Passers-by stand stupidly on different sides of the house, holding the rope, and you stand in a safe place and watch both of them. In 5 minutes they will meet, maybe they will get acquainted and laugh at their naivety, or maybe they will go looking for you to take revenge.

13. Play this prank if you have a couple of extra hours left. Put a spool of thread in your pocket, the color of which is different from the color of your clothes. Leave the end of the thread sticking out of your pocket; of course, someone will want to serve you, don’t interfere with him in this.

14. You came to visit a friend, wait until he is busy. You go into the kitchen, pour water into a pan, cover it with a sheet of paper, turn it over without the water spilling out, and place it in a place that is inconvenient for the owner of the apartment (on the floor, on the table). A friend comes into the kitchen, sees an “unattended” pan, removes it and causes a flood. Another option for this prank: instead of a saucepan, you can pour water into a transparent 1, 2, 3, 5 liter jar. The “victim” will know what awaits him, but how to deal with smaller victims is a different question.

15. When you come to a party and go to the bathroom before dinner, don’t forget to leave the shower on so that your friends can also “swim.”

16. The required item for the raffle is a bunk bed. The time it takes place is at night or when the person being played is sleeping. You pour water into a large jar, put a towel in it (there is a knot at the end of it). You and the can are on the second floor of the bed, your friend is sleeping downstairs. You turn the jar over and hang the end of the towel down so that the water dripping from it hits the “victim”’s face. After a few minutes, the “subject” will wake up and most likely pull the towel. Well, in vain...

17. If your friend has a computer, then you can prank him like this: you need a long, strong wire for the mouse. It is better for the system unit to be under the table. If possible, use a fake mouse - the same as the “victim’s” one, only not working. Wait until the “object” leaves the room, use a rope to tie the mouse’s tail to the leg of the chair, and push it under the table. When your friend enters the room, the first thing he will do is move his chair away to sit at the computer, while the mouse will “run away” from him, and when he tries to “catch” it, pulling it towards him, the chair will slide under the table, hitting him in the legs.

18. You are traveling in a cramped bus (subway car, tram, trolleybus), there is a lot of pressure in the morning, and you want to sit down. When addressing your friend or even a stranger, say a few phrases (speak louder so that others can hear you):

1) “I stole last time, now it’s your turn”;

2) “Heh, heh, heh, tuberculosis is completely tormenting me”;

3) “Don’t you know that AIDS is not transmitted through airborne droplets? I feel sorry for the people”;

4) “You don’t know where you can get a fake passport here, otherwise they’ll be after me.”

19. You can make a snowfall in the teacher's room, classroom, or just the room of a friend, sister or brother.

Fill a suitable sized tube with confetti or baby powder and insert the tube into the gap between the wall and the door or into the keyhole. On the other hand, place a switched-on hairdryer on the tube. A dazzling sight!

20. This prank is best carried out in a building with a large crowd of people and rooms (at a school, college, supermarket, train station). Stock up on a lot of signs with the inscriptions “Toilet”, “Buffet”, “Cashier”, “Dining Room”, “Cheburechnaya”, “Dean’s Office”, etc. Hang these signs on any doors: at the dean’s office - “Dining Room”, at the cash desk - “Buffet” " One can only sympathize with the employees who will have to fend off persistent visitors. To avoid lines in the toilet or before entering the elevator, hang signs on the doors of these establishments that read “Out of Service.” You will save significant time.

Pranks at the festive table

If you decide to play a prank on your friends or acquaintances at an evening dedicated to April 1, then the festive table itself can become one of the main assistants in your endeavors. A harmless swap of the fork and knife of a sleeping neighbor will cause those around you, and especially you, to burst into laughter. By the way, the end of the joke can be a small knot that will tie your unlucky friend to the leg of his own chair (if you have the patience, you can tie the chairs of all the members of the festive dinner to each other). And a couple of funny patterns made from birthday cake cream on the subject’s face wouldn’t be out of place either. Having woken up, your friend will undoubtedly want to drink sparkling water, and you, as a faithful comrade, will, of course, provide him with such an opportunity, having first thoroughly shaken the highly carbonated drink. Just keep in mind that everyone present at the table, including you, will become the “victim” of such a joke.

At the table you can also show your psychic abilities. To do this, do not be lazy to write numbers from one to ten on separate pieces of paper and put them in different places (be sure to remember where and with what number you hid the piece of paper). Now you are fully armed. Ask your friend to name a number from one to ten, then point him to some place in your apartment (under the table or on the windowsill), there he will find a piece of paper with the number in mind. Don’t forget to write a note on it with a phrase that determines the level of mental development of your friend.

There are pranks especially for housewife girls. Ask one of them to go to the kitchen and check the readiness of some dish or drink (for example, milk or cocoa) that is being prepared in a pan on the stove. But don't forget that today is April 1st! A few minutes before she appears in the kitchen, you should pour dry ice into a pan of hot soapy (use shampoo) water. The girl learns a lot about the escaping “milk”.

For the next draw you will need two helpers. You remain in the same room with the “victim” of the prank, you need to prepare her for the subsequent “terrible” event, for this reason with your friend on the topic of the untimely deaths of many great people. After the “object” reaches the required state and is plunged into sad thoughts, hide quietly or silently leave the room. At this moment, one of your accomplices, having laid out on the asphalt (it is advisable that the apartment in which this action will take place is at least on the second floor) a pre-prepared doll, dressed in the same clothes as you, will loudly scream that something like “Fell, crashed, guard!” The second assistant takes the person being played into the yard where you supposedly met your end (don’t give yourself away by laughing loudly). Not finding you sprawled in a puddle of “blood” on the asphalt, your friends return back in bewilderment, and you calmly wait for them in your original place...
