Yeah, we know that whoopie cushions are one of the most juvenile forms of humor in existence, but they still can make the most stoic of us giggle. Novelty gift company Fred came up with the brilliant idea of combining a bookmark with a whoopie cushion, so every time you close your book, it emits a delightful raspberry.

Frustrating Scammers with The Password Game

Frustrating Scammers with The Password Game

Developer Neal Agarwal’s The Password Game is an intentionally frustrating parody of password complexity rules. Scam-buster Kitboga teamed up with Agarwal to integrate a version of his app into a fake banking website, then used it to drive scammers insane. We’re impressed how long some of these crooks stuck to it.

Mark Rober needs to add “Citizen Hero” to his resume.

Rémi Gaillard: UFO

Serial prankster Rémi Gaillard takes us behind the scenes of his recent stunt in which he crashed a fake spaceship in the middle of a road, then emerged dressed as a space alien looking for help from passers-by. He also flew a strangely-lit drone into the sky which fooled some media into reporting about a UFO sighting.

Rémi Gaillard’s Olympics

Rémi Gaillard’s Olympics

Long-time prankster Rémi Gaillard couldn’t make it to the 2021 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, so he put on his own version of the event wherever he could find the room. Rémi competes against himself in events such as the random lady’s purse toss, downhill moving walkway kayaking, and car wash surfing.

Glitter Bomb 3.0

Glitter Bomb 3.0

After two two prior efforts to get back at package thieves, engineer Mark Rober kicks things up another notch. His latest Glitter Bomb is the most diabolical “gift” yet, adding the nasty glue from mouse traps, 4x the fart spray, eau de skunk, a police light effect, and a mechanism that makes it harder to shut off.

3D-Printed Statue Self-Portrait

3D-Printed Statue Self-Portrait

With the help of Pikus Concrete, Zack Nelson of JerryRigEverything managed to have a gigantic 3D-printed statue created in his own image. The 12-foot-tall concrete sculpture weighs in at 6,000 pounds, and Jerry had it dropped next to his buddy’s swimming pool as a prank. We’re sure it will soon get sliced open by What’s Inside.

R/C Crocodile Head

R/C Crocodile Head

Whether you’re just pranking your friends by dropping it into their swimming pool, or you want to scare off waterfowl, Flytec’s remote-controlled crocodile head should do the trick. Basically, it’s just a toy boat that looks like a gator, but it looks pretty convincing to us. Now somebody needs a full-size boat that looks like this.

Glitter Bomb vs. Package Thieves

Glitter Bomb vs. Package Thieves

After one of his packages got stolen, Mark Rober and his friend spent 6 months making a smart glitter bomb. Not only does it spew a ton of glitter, it also sprays fart spray and best of all records the whole thing. Here it is punishing evildoers.

Making People Invisible

Making People Invisible

An amusing clip from the Netflix series Magic for Humans in which magician Justin Willman uses a mix of illusion and collusion with the audience to convice two subjects that they are now invisible. Lots of commenters think the marks were actors, but we’re not so cynical.

Train

Train

Prankmeister Rémi Gaillard once again slows down traffic with his antics, this time donning a train costume and setting up a pair of impromptu human gates wherever he wants. We suppose this would be a good way to cross a really busy street.

Smurf Prank
