Funny surprises that liven up birthdays. Hilarious prank ideas (71–80)
Prank with special effects makeup
If you’re looking for a prank that will truly shock someone, special-effects makeup pranks are highly recommended.
For women, you could use SFX makeup to look completely bald, or go with the classic zombie makeup to give them a scare—there are plenty of ways to surprise people.
Professional makeup can be expensive, but variety stores sell more accessible options you can enjoy more easily.
Birthday flash mob
To celebrate my childhood best friend’s 20th birthday, I arranged a flash mob.
Suddenly, a dance started right in front of us, and with each song change, more people joined in.
In the end, the girl who planned it danced together with her best friend, including a solo.
The grandeur and sincerity of it brought me to tears.
Fake iPhone prank
A prank video from CJ SO COOL, a popular American YouTuber with over 5 million subscribers.
His 10-year-old daughter is handed an iPhone box.
As the excited child opens it, she finds it completely empty! When her parent asks, “I’ll buy you the iPhone, but you’ll listen to what I say, right?” the child nods obediently, leading to a happy ending.
It’s elaborate and pretty entertaining.
Celebrate with the star’s mask
Some people prefer surprises that pack a punch.
Here’s a suggestion: a surprise using a mask of the person you want to celebrate.
First, prepare a photo of them, enlarge it, and cut out the face.
Then reinforce it with cardboard to finish it as a mask.
Make lots of these, and if everyone wears one to celebrate, they’ll be truly stunned.
The bold look will also pop in commemorative photos.
Start by choosing a great photo of their face.
Fake cake pop prank
Cakes are fun, including their appearance, and the more colorful they are, the more excited we get to discover what’s inside and how they taste.
This prank deliberately betrays that anticipation: inside what looks like a cake-like coating, the contents are actually vegetables.
Round items like Brussels sprouts or cherry tomatoes are recommended; take advantage of their shape, coat them with chocolate, and finish them to look like a cake.
Creating a clear gap between what the appearance suggests and the actual taste is key to getting a big reaction.
