Pranks

Fred Rogers had the sweetest reaction to getting pranked on his show. The legendary, lovable host of Mister Rogers Neighborhood responded in the most gentle, goodhearted way when he fell victim to a prank on the set of his popular program. Watch the short but adorable clip to see the joke and how Mr. Rogers responded to being the subject of a harmless prank. Laughter is something we definitely need more of in this world. Thanks to 24-hour news channels and popular social media platforms, many people spend way too much time being needlessly upset about this or that. They see something they disagree with, but instead of letting it go and moving on, they immediately explode with what they believe to be righteous anger. Many people today seem unable to accept a joke, especially when it comes at their expense. Instead, many peoples first instinct is to rush to social media and post about how they believe they were egregiously wronged or mistreated. Most people are guilty of responding this way. What happened to not sweating the small stuff, and stop making mountains out of molehills? In a clip posted on YouTube, Fred Rogers shows how to take a joke, even when it comes at your expense. He reacted with grace, humility and kindness. The video depicts the host sitting down, taking off his shoes and attempting to switch them for another pair. However, that doesnt quite go as planned. The shoes hes trying to put on are a little too small. He and everyone else on set immediately start laughing when they notice they won't fit. He asks who owns the shoes hes trying on while continuing to laugh. He admits that when trying on shoes that were too small for his feet, he thought, Does that feel strange? Fred Rogers also tells the guy whose shoes he has to have a happy lunch. Proverbs 17:22 A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.

Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear about his move that had his superior and all his coworkers baffled and befuddled. Not only is the television series The Office one of the most beloved sitcoms of all time, featuring arguably the greatest character to ever appear on screen, Michael Scott, but its also known for having some pretty elaborate office pranks. Throughout the show, Jim Halpert constantly plays one joke after another on Dwight Schrute.

What would happen if someone were to play a Jim Halpert-type prank on their unsuspecting coworkers? It wouldnt work, would it? People would assuredly and immediately pick up on what was going on and foil the pranksters fun. Well, maybe not.

His story will have you laughing from beginning to end! While in college, working in an office on campus, Brian decided to imitate the faint buzzing of an iPhone.

He goes on to mention how his skills had everyone in the office frantically searching for the source of the sound, including his boss. Eventually, they realized no phone was buzzing; it was Brian. He didnt get in too much trouble for his prank; he even says he did it a couple more times while working there.

A child climbed into a claw machine and managed to get himself stuck. The little guy was apparently incredibly interested in the inner workings of the toy dispenser and soon found himself unable to get out of the machine. Watch the short but jaw-dropping clip to see the child climb into the machine and how he was eventually freed. Children are inquisitive, curious beings. They are constantly growing, learning and exploring, with their preoccupation for all things new and unfamiliar sometimes getting them in trouble. If and when those youngsters spot a new object, it immediately grabs their attention, and their curious nature takes over. Every parent knows and understands that children are always ready to explore. When mom or dad turns their head slightly, taking their attention off their little one for a second, that will inevitably be the moment the kiddos run off, setting out on their latest journey. Most of the time, mom and dad can find and redirect their child before they get too far. However, sometimes the parents arent as quick as theyd like, and the children can get away and get themselves in trouble. That is precisely what happened when one little guy saw a claw machine and became intrigued. For some reason, probably because hes a child and doesnt know any better, he thought climbing up into the machine was a good idea. As could have been predicted, it turned out that it was not. The clip shows the little guy slowly approaching the machine. He then slowly, without a moments hesitation, and without giving it a second thought, starts to climb, head-first, into it. One man stops and momentarily stares at the child, who is now standing up in the machinea most peculiar sight, for sure. Once he sees what is going on, he continues on his way, with the child still in the machine. Eventually, as the clip points out, first responders had to be called to the scene to rescue the little guy. This is one of those incidents that will make for a funny story for everyone involved way,way down the road. Proverbs 22:6 If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.

Hundreds of dads were duped into participating in an epic church shirt prank. The fathers were unaware they had been tricked until it was too late. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear how hundreds of fathers found themselves wearing the same shirt to church. Every week, church is a special time set aside for the Lord. During those church services, we praise and thank the Lord for all He has done and continues to do in our lives. Church is also an excellent opportunity to slow down, take a break from our busy, hectic schedules and come together as a community of believers. While the Lord is always so good and faithful, constantly giving us the best of Himself, we should act similarly. Of course, this means bringing our praises, tithes, and offerings and wearing what is typically referred to as our Sunday best. As a clip posted on YouTube shows, on one Sunday, that commonly used term meant the same thing to hundreds of fathers. Nearly the entire congregation at one Catholic church in Texas worked together to pull off an epic prank that resulted in 200 dads showing up to service in the same shirt. The joke started in one of the churchs small groups among a couple of friends. It began as a joke on just 25 fathers. However, the prank quickly took on a life of its own as more and more people got involved, eventually becoming a prank on 200 dads. The clip shows the fathers arriving at church, looking at one another, and slowly realizing that they had been duped and were part of an elaborate joke. Many, including those tricked into wearing the same shirts, got quite the kick out of the joke. People yesterday were smiling, and they were laughing, and they were joyful, said the woman who started the prank. At the end of the day, its all about community. Proverbs 17:22 A glad heart makes a healthy body, but a crushed spirit makes the bones dry.
