pranks

As far as pranks go, this one is a tyrannosaurus-sized success.

Oh, Internet -- you continue to host wonderful ideas for the betterment of all humankind. And then there's this.

Sometimes friends are the worst. This rowdy bunch of Norwegians (note the man smoking next to a gas can) took their friend out for his bachelor party and pulled a massive prank.

You may be tired of pranks. But here is one where being tired it literally the prank.

You might recognize a few of these faces from last week, when we showed the man on the right, Karl Stefanovic, pranking his co-anchor from Australia 'Today' on the air. He's back, and this time he's trying to eat the world's hottest pie.

This is the kind of prank we like. Nobody gets hurt, and it didn't happen to us.

Every year April Fool’s Day sneaks up on me. The day is usually uneventful because I don’t even remember it’s April Fool’s Day until the day is almost over. This year, I am vowing to make a change. I am planning on living April Fool’s Day to the fullest. If you need a little help coming up with some gags and pranks, I’ve compiled a list for you.

It seems certain that last year stood as the Year of the Prank. With examples ranging from that terrifying zombie corpse to the ghostly little girl terrorizing elevator riders, we were rather nervous that 2013 wouldn't hold up. Luckily, thanks to this hoax pulled off at a beauty salon, there's still hope!

Guy Fieri has been having a tough time with his new restaurant, Guy's American Kitchen & Bar, which opened in New York's Times Square last November. First the eatery was savaged in a New York Times' review. And just when folks were starting to forget about that, Fieri has made an unforced error which is sure to subject him to another round of ridicule.

Just because it's legal to do it on your own time in Colorado, doesn't mean you can drug your whole class. Two University of Colorado students in Boulder thought it would be funny to bring pot brownies to a morning class to share. Then a bunch of people who ate them had freak- outs. Suddenly it was not so fun.

Ghastly little children and zombie corpses in elevators aren't the only things petrifying people around the world this holiday season. It looks like even Frosty himself is getting in on the act to wish us all a very happy (and spooky) holiday.

Everyone loves a good scare, wouldn't you agree? Well, we're not so sure these people would. In fact, it's possible they might all opt for the stairs in the future.
