Ah, pranks – who doesn't love them? In terms of comedy, a good prank has got it all: you can get your friends involved, the prankee usually gets to experience an emotional rollercoaster, and of course, everyone gets lots and lots of laughs in the end. Yup, pranks are great...so long as they're not happening to you, naturally.
And while history is littered with great pranks ever since Og the Caveman pulled the first prank on his buddy Udd with the ol' "fake plastic T-Rex" gag, there are certainly a few that stand head and shoulders above the rest. Not to mention, pranks have become art forms in themselves and a cultural phenomenon – heck, it seems like at one point MTV was showing nothing but prank shows!
As diehard fans of the art of the prank, we here at UGO would like to take time out and celebrate the top 25 greatest pranks ever caught on camera. So put down your whoopee cushions and fake dog doo-doo and join in on the fun at laughing at others misfortunes!
