Fake Murder Panic: For those who believe PrankvsPrank are the most extreme pranking couple, they
need to hear the story Nattaleigh Schlette and Micah Risner.
The two took pranks to a sadistic level after Schlette posed for pictures in her bathtub,
covered in ketchup and what appeared to be a kniffe sticking out of her.
Risner sent the photo to his sister, along with a text begging for help and claiming
he didn't mean to do it.
Naturally, Risner's sister panicked and was telling him to throw away his clothes and
the weapon, but during the conversation, police arrived after another family member called
9-1-1.
Police were able to determine Schlette was very much alive, but the couple were charged
with inciting panic.
Knowing they'd messed up, they cooperated with the authorities and the case is yet to
go to court.
While harmless, it can't be denied how sinister the prank ended up being, and it is likely
the couple will face a hefty fine, or even prison time.

Don't Prank in the Seedy Part of Town: Sometimes, pranks sound better on paper than they turn
out.
Prankster Dennis Cee and his accomplices from JinkiesTV had the idea of going to East New
York and trying to sell waterguns to random strangers.
The prank involved them walking up to people on the street and saying they had "gats"
for sale, before revealing they were actually water pistols.
As one can expect, many of those pranked did not take it well, and all three participants
were subjected to verbal exchanges, being pinned to walls and even punched in the face.
Things took a rather dangerous turn when Dennis approached three individuals in a park, and
commenced the prank.
This time, one of the men pulled a real gun and pointed it right at Dennis, threatening
him with violence.
The panicked prankster quickly revealed he only had a water gun and begged to be let
go, saying it was just a prank.
The video cuts out there, but it is known no one was seriously harmed during the prank.

Killer Clowns from Earth: 2016 saw a series of bizarre sightings straight out of a horror
movie.
People dressed in terrifying clown costumes were reported lurking around in the dark in
all 50 us states, 9 Canadian provinces and around 18 more countries around the world.
A majority of the pranks were harmless, but there were more sinister cases including schools
being shut down due to threats from clown assailants.
One would-be prankster from Berlin decided to scare his friends by donning a clown costume
with a hammer.
The 16-year old waited until sundown and then snuck up on a group of unsuspecting teens
handing out in the park.
The prank worked, but too well.
One of the teens pulled a knife and stabbed the prankster, who crumpled on the ground
in pain.
After the mask was removed, the group recognized the prankster and the assailant realized his
mistake, but quickly redeemed himself by applying first aid to the wound until an ambulance
arrived.
The 16-year old required surgery, but recovered.
The teen's reason to react in such a way may be justified, as the Friday before in Munich,
a 10-year old boy was chased by a clown swinging an axe, causing mass panic in the city and
country.
The clown craze appears to have died down, and due to similar incidents as the ones above,
it is likely not to return for a while.

Prank = Molestation: When you hear a title such as that, we can't blame our viewers for
thinking Sam Pepper is the subject.
However, this isn't the case this time.
In January 2017, Indian prankster Crazy Sumit found himself in hot water after the Delhi
police began an investigation over allegations of molestation.
The reason relates to a prank video he posted in which he would stop women passing by and
asking them questions, such as for directions or the time, and then kiss unexpectedly them
before running off.
Immediately, complaints from the public and even politicians flooded social media and
the police stations, accusing Sumit of sexual assault.
Delhi police did begin an investigation, but charges could only be brought if one of the
women featured in the video were to come forward with a complaint of their own.
Luckily for Sumit, all three women in the video came forward and admitted they were
in on the video, and were friends of Sumit who agreed to participate in the video, simply
one which was meant to gain views and subscribers to Sumit's channel.
Sumit was ultimately released, but his channel suffered.
There are still those who believe molestation occurred, but many have voiced anger over
him faking a prank video for views.
In the end, it didn't seem worth the trouble, and hopefully other channels can learn from
Sumit's mistake, as well as those who've done similar things in the past.

Bullied to Death: Pranking can have some sinister motives behind them, designed more to torment
rather than get a laugh.
17-year old Sergei Casper had been subjected to bullying throughout his high school life.
The brutality of his torment took a tragic turn when his bullies tied Casper up and stood
around laughing as he tried in vain to escape.
During his attempt, he tripped and fell against a corner of a desk, which in turn crushed
his throat and rendering him unable to breath.
His classmates simply gathered around and laughed, despite Casper struggling for air
and turning blue.
Even the teacher didn't intervene, leaving Casper on his own.
The teen died soon after, having suffocated.
Immediately, Casper's family called for action against the culprits, and Moscow Police began
a homicide investigation.
The entire incident was filmed, and shows the coldness involved in the incident, students
laughing and no one stepping in to help.
Police have declared all the persons involved are facing murder charges, as well as negligence
charges against the teacher for failing to intervene.
This is a huge lessons for all bullies out there; what may seem harmless can lead to
tragedy, and justice towards you will be swift at that point.
#10 From Prank to Brawl: Senior pranks have become a common tradition in high schools
across North America.
It is the senior classes way of relieving the stress of finals and just to have fun
since it is perceived school officials can't do anything to punish those responsible.
Some of these pranks do cross over into the extreme and have unforeseen consequences.
Seniors at Monarch High School in Coconut Creek, Florida started the day off with mundane
pranks, but soon things got ugly.
Staff and students reported lockers being glued shut and even dead fish found in the
vending machines.
Spray paint was also found on various windows throughout the school.
At lunch, a massive food fight broke out and escalated into a full on brawl involving dozens
of students.
Officials and law enforcement managed to get things under control and no one was seriously
injured, but there was $40,000 in damages as a result of the pranks.
The same couldn't be said at Baldwin High on Long Island in June 2016.
Pranksters released hundreds of crickets and lit up several stink bombs into the school.
The ensuing panic led to a fight involving 50 students in the school parking lot.
Police were forced to use pepper spray in order to break up the fight and several students
were arrested.

#9 Feeling the Pressure: Air pressure hoses are used for various tasks, but they are certainly
not meant to be combined with a human being.
Two friends from India, Yakub Shaikh [Yuh-koob Shay-eek] and Santosh Arekar [Are-Care], would
occasionally conduct friendly banter and conduct pranks on one another.
While the two were working a Toyota showroom in September 2015, Arekar thought it would
be funny to insert an air pressure hose meant to inflate tires into Shaikh's rectum.
Without hesitation, he grabbed the hose, stuffed it into Shaikh, and turned the machine on.
Laughter turned to pure horror for all witnesses after Shaikh immediately swelled up and began
violently vomiting.
Workers quickly shut the hose off and called for an ambulance, but by the time they arrived,
he was pronounced dead.
Police arrived on the scene and arrested Arekar for murder.
According to pathologists, when Shaikh's body was brought for autopsy, the first incision
caused air to escape him, similar to a balloon deflating.
For those who wish to have fun with an air pressure hose should take a considerable lesson
from this story, as it can lead to disastrous consequences.
#8 Sam Pepper's Backlash: In the world of youtube celebrities, no one is more controversial
than Sam Pepper.
Since starting his prank channel on youtube back in 2010, Pepper has received massive
criticism for accusations of sexual harassment during his pranks, which has included pinching
unsuspecting women on the street.
Things took a massive turn in November 2015 when Pepper released a video titled "Killing
Best Friend Prank."
Pepper and his accomplices kidnapped fellow youtubers Colby Brock and Sam Golbach, placed
bags over their heads and took them to a rooftop.
Brock was in on the prank, and Golbach was forced to watch as a masked gunman pretended
to shoot Brock in the head.
Golbach began to panic at the supposed death of his best friend, even finding himself unable
to look at Brock laying on the ground.
Even after the team revealed it was a prank, Golbach remained in hysterics at the shock
and horror that had happened to him.
After the video was uploaded, thousands of people bombarded Pepper with hate comments,
saying he had gone too far.
Newspaper Metro even compared the video to an ISIS-style execution, calling in deeply
insensitive.
A petition was started to have Pepper permanently banned from youtube and garnered over 100,000
signatures in a matter of days.
Pepper later removed the video due to the growing outcry, and his youtube channel hasn't
recovered since.
#7 Graduation Arson: High School graduation is a massive celebration for families, as
their children finally venture on into adulthood.
Students of Roseville, California had an unexpected incident befall their school in May 2014 when
the graduation stage on the school football field caught fire, destroying the stage and
severely damaging the turf.
Instantly, students and staff suspected a rival school to be the culprits, since it
was deemed unbelievable for local students to commit such an act against their own school.
Expect the unexpected became the moral of the year when Roseville students, Jordan Loya
and an unidentified teen were arrested under suspicion they had lit the fire.
Students expressed shock and outrage that fellow students would commit such a destructive
act to their own school, within days of graduation.
Despite the major criminal record both teens were to receive, the school announced they
would still obtain their diplomas as they had completed their academic requirements
to do so.
The turf was heavily damaged and it was estimated to coast $20,000 for the stage and $1million
to replace the entire turf of the field.
Luckily, local landscapers and other businesses pitched in to help rebuild the turf for free,
with the school not needing to pay for supplies or manpower.
#6 Bigfoot Manslaughter: Bigfoot has become a legend in North America, with hundreds of
people dedicating their lives to finding any proof the creature exists.
Randy Lee Tenley of Montana decided it would be funny to wear his ghillie camouflage suit,
and run towards the highway in order to spook motorists along the road.
Tenley stoon on the right side of Highway 93, waiting to pounce, but stood too close
to the road.
A 15 year old motorist was unable to see Tenley due to the darkness outside and the suit making
Tenley virtually invisable, and struck him at high speed.
To make matters worse, another driver was unable to stop in time and also ran over Tenley
as he lay wounded in the road.
Motorists attempted to aid Tenley as best they could before help arrived, but his injuries
proved to be fatal.
Police investigating the incident determined the drivers were not at fault since the first
failed to see Tenley due to his camouflage and the second did everything she could to
avoid hitting him.
This story goes as a warning for those who wish to pull a similar style prank, and fuels
the types of unexpected tragedies that can occur in trying to play a simple prank.
#5 The Yes Men: One of the best known, and most organized prank duo, The Yes Men consists
of Jacques Servin and Igor Vamos.
The two aren't your typical pranksters, who conduct pranks for views and fame.
Instead, they conduct pranks as a political statement and in protest of corporations and
capitalism.
Their schemes often involve them posing as officials from various organizations, including
the WTO, Dow Chemicals and BP, among others.
The duo have even produced three well received documentaries, The Yes Men, The Yes Men Fix
the World, and the Yes Men are Revolting.
In the second film, one of the pranks involves them posing as ExxonMobil representatives,
resulting in them being invited to Canada's largest oil conference in Calgary, Alberta,
Canada's oil executive capital.
On June 7, 2007, Servin and Vamos presented a speech concerning the search for alternative
fuels.
In the ruse, they declared a new fuel called Vivoleum as candles were passed around the
room and lit.
A video was then shown, interviewing what was claimed to be the deceased custodian of
EM's corporate headquarters.
The punchline was intended to reveal the custodian had died of cancer and his body was used to
produce Vivoleum, which in turn was turned into the candles.
Unfortunately, a member of the security detail recognized the duo and the video was shut
down, and The Yes Men were escourted offstage.
While their fame might have foiled them that time, The Yes Men have continued to go strong,
and have a massive global following today.
#4 Officer Daniel's Last Call: Pranks can have unintended consequences.
A group of senior students from St. Charles East High found this out in a rather tragic
turn of events.
Five senior students, only a few months from graduating, decided to break into the school
and steal one of the golf carts for a joy ride around the grounds.
A janitor spotted the teens forcing the doors open with lock cutters and called the police.
Having been spotted, the teens fled and were long gone by the time police arrived.
With nothing to go by, most of the officers left, except for Sargent Daniel Figgins, who
decided to keep watch in case the teens decided to come back.
Not long after, two of the teens returned in order to retrieve the bolt cutters they'd
left behind in their escape.
Figgins radioed dispatch and jumped out of his vehicle in pursuit of the suspects.
Unfortunately, Figgins collapsed during the foot chase of a heart attack, and backup found
him unresponsive.
Figgins, who was an officer for 27 years, died from his heart attack before he could
reach the hospital.
The group of five were identified and arrested, charged with felony attempted burglary and
felony possession of burglary tools, meaning they could face time in prison.
Furthermore, the school was conducting their own investigation to see if disciplinary action
should be taken from their end.
They were not found to be responsible for Figgins' death, as it was deemed a tragic
circumstance rather than the teens being directly involved in the death.
#3 Halloween Tragedy: Halloween is all about tricks and treats.
People around the world go all out in decorating their yards and homes in horror themed entertainment.
Some of the most extreme forms of decorations have been people pretending to hang themselves
before scaring the living daylights out of unsuspecting trick-or-treaters.
16 year old Jordan Morlan of Louisville, Kentucky decided to attempt the prank for himself to
trick his parents and younger sister.
Jordan's mother, Ginger, was alerted by her daughter of Jordan hanging from their tree
outside.
She remained unfazed at first, believing Jordan was trying to scare them.
However, she became alarmed when her daughter revealed Jordan wasn't moving and had drool
running down his face.
Ginger rushed outside and frantically tried to get Jordan down as she called 9-1-1.
Paramedics rushed Jordan to the hospital, where he remained in a coma for three days
before passing away.
The death was declared an accident, with Jordan not taking the proper precautions and succumbing
to oxygen deprivation.
This is not the first accidental hanging on Halloween and there have been countless more.
In a story with a happier ending, a 17 year old from St. Louis was working a haunted house
when her safety mechanism failed and she begun to actually hang.
Guests to the attraction walked by her, believing her struggling to be part of the act.
Another employee did a walk around and found her unconscious.
He managed to get her down and to the hospital, where she remained in a coma for three days.
She made a full recovery, though it is probably safe to say she requested a different position
at the attraction for the following year.
#2 Stop Sign Defacement: Stop signs are important to follow, but have also become targets of
humourous graffiti.
However, one tragedy certainly crossed the line.
Two Ohio teens, Seth Stonerock and Derek Greenlee of Circleville, decided to step up the usual
stop sign defacement, and cover one in petroleum jelly.
On the night of August 17, 2011, the two implemented their plan and completely covered a stop sign
in a ludacrus amount of jelly.
Greenlee had a change of heart and was attempting to convince Stonerock to stop, but the latter
brushed him off as overreacting.
The teens completed the prank and left, thinking it would just cause a minor nuisance.
Sadly, 85 year old Mary Spangler failed to see the sign under the jelly and ran through
it, causing a car to collide head on into the driver's side door.
She died at the scene before help could arrive, and her sister Jeanne Shea was seriously injured,
dying three weeks later.
Shocked, Stonerock and Greenlee turned themselves into authorities and they were taken into
custody.
Both were charged with involuntary manslaughter before the courts, but Greenlee's charges
were dismissed after it was determined he was an unwilling accomplice since he tried
to talk Stonerock out of the prank.
Stonerock pled guilty to the charges and was sentenced to 4 years in prison.
Stonerock showed remorse throughout the proceedings, and tearfully apologized to the family for
Spangler's and Shea's tragic deaths.
#1 The Tragic case of Jacintha Saldanha:
Prank calls are a classic and generally harmless form of fun amongst people practically since
the telephone was invented.
Radio programs have often incorporated them into their airtime as entertainment for listeners.
Unfortunately, one incident placed a black mark on the traditional prank.
On December 2, 2012, Kate Middleton and Prince William were awaiting the birth of their first
child when Middleton was admitted to hospital for a severe case of morning sickness.
Middleton was resting in hospital when Australian radio hosts Mel Greig and Mike Christian of
Hot30 Countdown in Sydney decided to make a prank call to the hospital.
Greig put on a comedic impression of the Queen as the call was connected.
To the surprise of both hosts, receptionist Jacintha Salandha believed Greig to actually
be the Queen and patched them through to Middleton's doctor.
After checking with lawyers to make sure they were safe from any legal action, Hot30 broadcasted
the prank to listeners.
While the hospital administration was not amused with the ruse, the prank garnered much
press and public attention, with many finding the idea brilliant and hilarious.
Sadly, Saldanha was deeply humiliated by the prank and her guilt of falling for it built
up over the next two days.
On the morning of December 7, hospital security found Saldanha dead in the hospital's nursing
quarters, having hanged herself.
Grieg and Christian expressed shock and sadness at the news, and released a heartfelt apology
to the hospital and Saldanha family.
However, the owners of Hot30 decided to cancel the show on January 27, 2013 due to the backlash
the incident caused.
Saldanha was buried in her native India, with over 1000 people in attendance.
