April Fools Pranks That Didn't Go Over So Well


What makes a good prank? One step is to know that the value of the joke itself outweighs the cruelty. It also helps when the intended target is the kind of person who can take a joke. Or if that person can't take the joke, it helps if they're universally hated. But if you've got that , you're most of the way there for a quality pranking. Basically what you're not looking for is to just make someone cry nonstop. It's a bit of a buzzkill.

So here are some pranks that, for whatever reason, didn't exactly go as planned. Or they worked too well, and that was the problem. It's all fun and games submitting your friend's obituary to the local newspaper until you have to explain to his parents that no, he was not in fact killed in a "terrifying butt exploding accident."
