[Hilarious] Funny Prank & Practical Joke Ideas (31–40)
A surprise to confess my feelings

Even with close friends, there aren’t that many chances to look them in the eye and say thank you.
In times like that, try expressing your gratitude with a little surprise.
All you’re really doing is clearly saying “I like you,” but it still makes the person happy.
Plus, giving them a small surprise adds to the charm.
If you want a heartwarming kind of prank, this is a great pick.
fall backward onto one’s back

It’s a prank that’s ambiguously a prank or not—a setup where the instigator falls backward expecting to be helped.
Since they suddenly topple over, there’s a risk you could end up getting hurt if things go wrong.
If you try it, make sure to protect yourself properly, for example by breaking your fall safely.
Doing it with friends you trust might even bring you closer.
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

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!
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

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.
A prank where someone’s nails are ripped off

It’s a prank about ripping off a nail.
The prankster goes to try a nail treatment, but then their nail gets yanked off with pliers.
Of course, it’s fake, but the terrified expression of the person being pranked when they’re told, “You’re next,” is truly something else.
