Random Pranks That Totally Backfired (10 items)

(#6) Gallon Smashing Results In Broken Jaw

Gallon smashing pranks went seriously viral. Teens would enter grocery stores, grab two galloons of whatever liquid they could find and smash them on the floor in a way that made it look like an accident. This teen's attempt to make it look like an accident came to fruition when he slipped in the process and broke his own jaw. In this case, perhaps it’s okay to cry over spilled milk.
(#7) Lamborghini Poop Prank Escalates Quickly

After the driver of a Lamborghini rudely cut off two men, the pair decided they would follow the car and teach the motorist a lesson. When the owner of the Lambo came out to his parked car, he happened upon the prankster pulling up his pants with toilet paper in hand and poop on the hood of the luxury vehicle.

Before the man could explain it was just fake poop, the prankee pulled out an electroshock weapon and tased the man, sending him to the ground convulsing. This prank went from 0 to 60 quicker than the sports car can.
(#8) Water Balloon Prank Is A Dud

Sometimes even the most innocent of pranks can go horribly wrong, or, in this case, hilariously wrong. When this teenager tried to surprise attack his little brother with a water balloon, he ended up sending him flying across the pavement. He probably owes little bro some candy after this.
(#2) Prank Foiled By Excellent Exit Strategy

The popular exorcist maze prank certainly made the rounds on the internet. It’s old news by now, however, if you plan to up the stakes of the prank, be sure you don’t target a person with an excessive, yet effective, exit strategy.
(#3) Kid’s Pranking Career Cut Short

A small child’s prank was cut short when his father unknowingly put the kibosh on his scary ghost schtick. The poor toddler was rejected when his father, not seeing him approaching, opened the closet door to put away his coat, knocking the ghostly kiddo to the ground.

At least the kid can take pride in the fact his ghost game was good enough to go virtually undetected.
(#9) Why You Should Look Both Ways Before Pranking

Pranks gone horribly wrong are often better when they are horribly fake: it makes for less heavy viewing. When this masked man pranks a woman by startling her in her home, her reaction to flee actually provides the real prank — which is on the viewer.
