[Hilarious] Funny Prank & Practical Joke Ideas (31–40)

My friend disappears in a haunted house!

It’s a perfect idea for a thrilling surprise performance.

When the group enters, use darkness and special setups so that one person naturally disappears and a different actor joins in.

The key to success is a smooth swap that no one notices, creating a surge of surprise and unease all at once.

The moment someone realizes, “Wait, isn’t that a different person?” will be the highlight.

After the experience, revealing the trick will bring relief and laughter, helping participants feel closer to one another.

With some creativity, you can create many variations, making it a buzzworthy surprise and a centerpiece for a school festival.

whoopee cushion

It looks like a cushion, but when you sit on it, it makes a “boo” sound as a prank.

The sound is dull, so instead of a soft “boo,” it’s actually surprisingly realistic.

You can use it with pets too, but their reactions seem underwhelming.

Some pets get annoyed, which is kind of cute, but for people it can be a bit embarrassing, right?

pants I can’t wear

pants I can't wear

It’s a simple and funny prank, right? You sew shut the hem of one pant leg so it can’t be worn.

But if you’re going to do this, make sure to do it when they’re changing from outside clothes to loungewear after coming home.

If you pull this prank during the hectic minutes before school or work, you’ll just make them angry.

So sew up the hem of their usual loungewear before they get home, and then just wait for their return.

It’s the kind of prank that will make the person being pranked smile in spite of themselves.

If you’re looking for a prank that’s a bit different from the usual, definitely give it a try!

spilled ink

spilled ink

It’s a decorative item that looks like spilled ink.

It’s a prank toy meant to be placed in various spots to enjoy people’s reactions, but you need to think carefully about when to use it.

Be cautious when setting it down.

Use it only with people you’re close to and be mindful of the situation.

You can buy it at shops that carry novelty items, large discount stores, and major online retailers.

Goofy Folding Chair

Everyday Prank: A Chair That Breaks
Goofy Folding Chair

This is a prank idea using a folding metal chair.

A folding chair has four joints that secure the seat, but you cut the two at the front so that when someone sits down, their weight makes the seat drop and they fall.

It’s similar to the school prank where you pull a chair out so someone lands on their butt.

I’d love to try it on my boss at work, but I’d definitely get yelled at, so do it with a close friend instead.

It seems to take a bit of effort to make.

Prank Cutter

[Prank] I cut my finger with a box cutter!!! I tried pranking my big sister — Prank my sister
Prank Cutter

It’s a prank item you can easily get at a 100-yen shop.

Part of the blade is indented, so if you place that spot against your finger, it looks like your finger is cut.

Use it together with a “detachable finger” magic trick and you’re sure to surprise people.

If you draw a line on your finger beforehand with a red pen, it makes the effect even more shocking, but it’s best to use it only once.

Prank memo

Spilling over!? The eye-catching “Overflow Memo” that makes you do a double‑take is fun [Stationery Intro] #420
Prank memo

It’s a prank that looks like spilled milk but is actually a memo.

Since people feel that spilled milk is a hassle, it really surprises them.

It’s an easy prank to pull because it ends with relief when they realize nothing actually spilled.

There are also coffee and water versions.
