Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
Me & Tinks was having a reminisce about the funstuff we got upto as kids like the tumble dryer incident, some things was such a laugh now as was in their heyday.....things that are lost with most kids today - tending to prefer the more boring of dangers lol.

Mine was results of dares & stupidity [gee nowt changed with me then hehehehe:D], me & a friend dared to go off the golden eagle up coppice on a black plastic sheet on snow [lesser big trees then] & i went smack into a tree & me mate disappeared to other end. Another snow incident was being dared to jump into a huge pile of snow & to my discovery found it was a potted bush plant underneath could of nearly broken me leg. My other moments of madness was going from base of coppice right down to the bottom of Avenue Parade on my bike with no brakes [hehehehehe] days before eastgate, in fact for a long time went down any hill on my brakeless bike & suffered many of injuries - smacked meself into a lampost then went over handlebars - bust nose, skidding so close to the ground i took my flesh off my knee on Norfolk st - stupid bitty stone road.

Ah theres but few there rest - errr my dads on AW lol? So what was peoples memories of been a pranker, pranked or just damn right daft as a brush like moi:D

My most memorable has got to be rigging a mates flat up with fish wire and convincing one of our other mates that was visiting, that the flat was haunted. It worked a treat! :D

Worst prank I've been on the receiving end of was when mthead got rockfm to ring me :o Less said about that one the better!

Some of mine might be classed as dangerous our illeagal. Mind you one does stick in my mind when they were building the Asda as when we climbed onto the steel framework it would shake. Pity we didnt shake it harder. :eek:

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
At Uni I was in Halls of residence for the year I was there. It was a group of rooms, 18 to a square with communal bathrooms in the centre and a kitchen at one end.

The doors would spring open if you kicked them just by teh lock, thgis led to numerous pranks,

1) The usual 3 o'clock in teh morning, burst in and dump said occupant in a freezing cold bath

2) unscrew teh hinges so when occupant came home and opened teh door with teh key the whole door would fall into teh room.

3) and this was the best, one lad had to go home for a fortnight due to a family thing. we broke into his room, now in each room you were given one of those 2' x 3' long shagpile rugs. We watered and grass seeded it and grew a lovely 'lawn' in his room, teh day he was due back, we borrowed a student uni mini bus and went up Snowden(I was at Bangor).We nicked a sheep off the mountain and stuck it in his room. When he came back he opened his room to find the sheep happily munching on his new lawn! :D( We took teh sheep back and it wasn't harmed in teh making of this prank!)

Then there were teh times at work, we used to get stuff delieverd in big boxes filled with those polystyrene S shapes. One lad made teh fatal mistake of leaving his car keys lying aroudn so we opened a window, locked teh car and then filled it to the brim with the stuff.

One played on me when I worked at the Britannia, By the kitchens there is a big extractor fan that blows teh hot air out from teh kitchen. I worked out that in winter if you parked under it your windscreen didn't get frosted up for when you finished work so I sort of made this my 'space' I also used teh same spot in Summer.... Thats when the sods used 3 Catering sized rolls of Cling Film to completely wrap my car up. What they hadn't realised was that teh heat from teh extractor actually turned it into shrink wrap! It took me about an hour with a sharp knife just to get in teh car!

I've got some more but I'll leave them for later

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
I think I led a sheltered life and the worst I got up to as a kid was knocking on a door or two and running away.

Did once play a good trick on a guy I worked with. This was in the early days of car phones (before mobiles came along). The boss at this company was a bit of a pain and a real time keeper but also kept bugging this guy at home. He'd more or less calculated how long it took this guy to get home and often rang him straight after work to ask him more stuff. It was really winding this guy up to start off with so when I faked a letter from the boss saying that he was getting a car phone for the guy so that he would be able to contact him at all times he went through the roof. Good job I did it on a day when the boss was out. Doesn't sound particularly funny now but was at the time.

He sort of got me back though so I don't usually go in for pranks.

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
in days of old when everyone had a coal fire certain youngsters used to climb on the roofs from an outbuilding in a shop yard,taking with them cardboard boxes,from the yard. they then proceded to turn the boxes upside down over the chimney pots. then run and hide, 10-15 mins later the unfortunate victims came running out of their front doors coughing and spluttering.(terrible):D

I'm like Gayle, nothing really daring, sort of goody, goody... well, 90% of the time :D Nothing really bad... just on one late evening March 31st, too long ago to remember the year, whilst still at Accy High, decided to dress up the old Grammar school. Climbed up fire escapes, etc., and hung different styles of ladies underwear on their flag pole, roof, etc. Good job no CCTV cameras then, would have def. got expelled. Seemed risque at the time.

Apart from that, just the usual; how many people can we get in this toilet girls? think made 16 before got caught and all fell through the door after teacher decided to see what was going on.

Sorry, I disagree. You can’t beat a dead budgie for the “Bloody Hell what was that” effect. But you do have to remember not to hide on its flight path. :eek: :o

Kidnapping Bovines and piglets.

Tying a lad to a Flag Pole naked and hoisting him inverted 5 ft up outside of an H Block at Wyton. Same lad was also pushed out of an upstairs window (on to mattresses of course) and also pushed him down three flights of stairs in a 1950 RAF vintage Wardrobe (without padding). We also flung him naked across the shower room floor (which was half flooded to increase his ground speed) this was not a case of bullying; we liked the lad and considered him a mate.

There are many more silly and irresponsible acts against property and persons innocent of everything but for being unsuspecting. I am not proud of my past, or my selfish actions. But every incident was bloody hilarious.

Got me brother once when i was moving house my dad hired a van, shoved all big items in & cos there was no room at the front for him to sit, he had to go in with all the removals & made sure he had a bumpy swinging ride with him trying to keep the stuff from falling on him - you should of heard the bangs from the back of the van & all we could do is laugh & make it more fun for him - lets say he wasn't impressed & picked up a few new swear words along the way hehehehehee:D

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
I remember a group of us creeping along the street, tying the door handles together with a length of twine, and then ringing all the doorbells. The other great one was to nip into a backyard when it was dark, tie the back door handle tightly to the bin lid, knock loudly on the door then run like hell. Only thing was, we were student nurses and all over 18!

At Uni we had one bloke who was into practical jokes, so one night we nicked his bed. We were in the Union bar, I made advances for the sole reason of nicking his room keys from his shirt pocket. Some of the lads made off, and moved his bed to a kitchen two floors up. He got back to his room well lubricated, saw that he didn't have a bed any longer, but being a science student proceeded to prove this by lying down on the floor. He was right, he didn't have a bed. We gave it back to him a day or so later though .....

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
A really good one is to get some "gaffa" tape & peel a long strand off the edge (about as thick as a piece of cotton), then stick it to the side of a car, preferably a dark car. From a distance it looks like the car has a massive scratch on it. hahaha.

Once in my army time, one of the guys who we didn't like too much had been out on the p*ss. He stumbled into the room & colapsed on his bed, about half an hour later 8 of us carried him (still in his bed) up to the washrooms on the next floor. The lads in the troop upstairs thought that this was hilarious, & the next morning crept around whilst washing & shaving so not to wake him. Needless to say, he was late for parade & had a hell of a time explaining to the sargeant major.

:D

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
I'm still acting like a kid so thought I'd share a recent prank I tried to pull on my family. Last week cut a very large pine tree down and it fell across the driveway. Rather than cutting it up so my daughter and then my wife could drive up to the house, I left it there.

Then headed back to the house, got a pair of boots and old bluejeans. Fill the pants with a few logs and jammed em under the tree trunk. First thing they'd see driving up were me legs protruding from under the tree.

My daughter arrived first. Didn't even phase her. When asked if she had flipped out on seeing the legs, she said "nah, thought you heard me coming and climbed under the tree to fool me."

Later my wife and son come upon the gruesome scene. They too thought I was hiding under the trunk but my wife did said Joshua out to "check and make sure."

I guess I play too many jokes around here. I'm afraid one of these times I'm really gonna cut me leg off and they'll just think I'm joking around again. That's life on the farm I suppose!;)

Re: Pranks, dares & mischeiviousness
 
I think the worse thing I got up to like Gayle was playing knock a door run. Only being over weight i wasn't to good at running so I would stand there looking all innocent and say " They went that way. " Pointing in the opposite direction.
When the kids were little Mummiboo and the rest of them loved to fill Mick's slippers with shaving foam.
The first time they did it his face was a picture.
