What kind of games. Games - pranks for a friendly company

Everyone knows that for drawing friends and even unfamiliar people in our calendar there is a special day - April 1, when everyone who is "caught" does not take offense, but mobilizes his strength to also deceive or play someone. As for pranks at holiday parties, it is necessary to act more subtly - success largely depends on the comments and artistry of the host (or the organizer of the fun).

From the prank game, as a rule, the audience gets much more pleasure than the participants, so you need to choose the "victims" very carefully, it's best if they are merry fellows with a sense of humor or quick-witted good-natured people who will not be offended for a long time, but will have fun together with everyone.

We offer our twenty games - drawings for a friendly company, some of them are already known, some are not, choose those that you like and will go with a bang! in your company.

1. Game-raffle "Imaginary obstacles".

Invited participants should not know that this is a prank. For success, the presenter will need 4 assistants, everything must be discussed with them in advance, and imperceptibly to others. Assistants must, when the main players are blindfolded and offered to overcome a certain obstacle course, remove all these obstacles from their path.

The host prepares four obstacle courses. The first obstacle on it will be the pieces of twine laid out on the floor - future players will have to go straight along this straight line, which will not be easy for them to do.

The second stage is ropes stretched between two chairs, under which the players will have to pass, bending very low so as not to hurt. The third test is a rope at a height that must be jumped over or stepped over. And the last obstacle is the chairs arranged in a checkerboard pattern. Players will have to go around them along the trajectory of the "snake".

The players are given time to carefully look and remember, then everyone is blindfolded at the same time, the leader distracts them: he explains the rules again, talks about obstacles in full detail, warns that it is strictly forbidden to grope for obstacles with your hands. At this time, assistants quietly remove all chairs with ropes.

Naturally, all participants will overcome these imaginary obstacles in accordance with the degree of intoxication and sports data, in their hearts they are proud of their dexterity. They will only find out about the trick when their bandages are removed, but for now they “suffer and try in vain” to the delight of the audience. Prizes at the end and applause for everyone.

2. Draw "Statue of love".

The host takes 5-6 people of different sexes out of the room, leaving one couple: a guy and a girl in the hall. For the rest, he offers to mold a statue depicting passionate love. Then, he invites one of the remote participants and invites him to be a sculptor and make his own changes to the statue of love.

The most interesting thing is to watch how dispersed players seat or put a man and a woman in very piquant "positions". And so, when they reach perfection, they are offered to replace the partner of the corresponding sex in this statue in a pose fashioned by themselves. Then the next player comes out, also creates and becomes a “victim” of his creativity.

Probably, even Australopithecus joked with each other, chasing a mammoth in the early centuries of the first millennium BC. True, then their jokes were a little bloody, and the humor smacked of blackness. This is evidenced by the memorial rock comics left by them for posterity. But there is no other way to name cave drawings without a signature and a title! Moreover, they are indisputable proof that our ape-like ancestors had a sense of humor. Just imagine how they are having fun now (sitting in their transcendental expanses), watching how modern scientists are trying to interpret their rock art! Wise, it turns out, we had ancestors, far-sighted!

But the forefathers began to record their achievements on the basis of humor already when they mastered writing perfectly. That is - in the middle of the new, however, already the last millennium, approximately in 1564. By the way, it is this year that is credited with the birth of the official date for the holiday of Laughter - April 1.

I thought about this when returning to Russia from my next humorous trip. And also - I mentally sorted out that huge mass of April Fools' memories of different centuries, which they told me about in Brittany. Some of them that especially amused and inspired me - I will share with you.

1. Magic color TV, 1962

The inhabitants of Sweden still recall with a smile on their lips the famous television prank, which belongs to the invention of the leading joker Kjell Stenson. On April 1, 1962, he appeared on the air of the only black-and-white television channel SVT in Sweden at that time and authoritatively stated: “If you put a transparent nylon stocking on the screen of a black-and-white TV, it will begin to broadcast programs in color!”. Stenson, skillfully operating with technical terms, and clearly demonstrating the essence of the method, in five minutes of air he persuaded almost half of the country's population to try to recreate the invention! True, Stenson said that the viewer will have to watch TV at a strictly defined angle and try to blink and turn his head as little as possible so as not to distort the "colored nylon picture."

Thousands of Swedes, after Stenson confessed in one of his regular programs that the "nylon color of the TV" was just an April Fool's joke, admitted that they tried to repeat the unique technical invention at home.

3. A minute without gravity

During an interview on BBC Radio 2, on the morning of April 1, 1976, British astronomer Patrick Moore announced that an extraordinary astronomical event should occur today. At exactly 9:47 am, the planet Pluto will pass directly behind Jupiter, in relation to the Earth. This rare planetary position would mean that the combined gravitational forces of the two planets would exert a stronger tidal pull, temporarily counteracting Earth's own gravity. Speaking in a language accessible to ordinary people, this means that for some time people will be able to get rid of the feeling of their own weight, and simply fly over the Earth. Moore called this phenomenon the Jupiter-Pluto gravitational effect.

At 9:47, Moore gave the command: "Try it now!". Exactly a minute passed, and then - phone calls rained down on the BBC from admiring people who claimed that the experiment worked! One Dutch woman even said that she, along with her husband, floated around the room holding hands! And another interlocutor claimed that he was now sitting at the table, along with 11 friends. At exactly 9:47, all of them, and the table along with them, began to rise into the air!

Of course, Moore's announcement was just an April Fool's prank! But it became the most sensational hoax of the late 20th century that so many people believed.

4. UFO in London

On March 31, 1989, on the outskirts of London, thousands of motorists saw a fabulous phenomenon - a shining flying saucer was rapidly descending on their city. When the UFO finally landed, a lot of curious onlookers rushed towards it. Including - and police officers who arrived at the scene on the call of a law-abiding citizen, who in an agitated voice announced the invasion of aliens. Everyone froze in silent expectation ... And then, the door of the ship swung open and a creature in a silvery suit came out of it! Half of London then rushed in all directions! Including the brave police officers!

And the plate turned out to be just a prank on the mad scientist-inventor of Virgin Records Richard Branson, who was already very famous for his passion for all sorts of tricks and pranks. True, he planned to land in London's Hyde Park on April 1. Unfortunately, the wind did not contribute to the "UFO" and the scientist landed a little earlier and in an unplanned place! However, the inventor was satisfied with the effect produced on the British!

5. Flight of the penguins

And this unique incident shook the world already at the beginning of modern times, on April 1, 2008. On this day, the BBC urgently announced that one of the film crews of the popular science channel had captured an incredible event - the rise of a flock of Adélie penguins! The video with flying penguins became at that time the most viewed story on the Internet! Air Force host Terry Jones announced that instead of cuddling quietly through the harsh Antarctic winter, the penguins decided to fly thousands of miles to South Africa, where they would "bask in the tropical sun all winter." Well, a few minutes later the Air Force was already explaining how they managed to create a similar video about penguins not born for flying.

6. Time optimization

As of April 1, 1975, this news became the main event of the day on all the leading channels in Australia. Competent metrologists announced live that their state will soon join the new time system. The essence of the system was that the duration of a minute would now be not 60 seconds, as before, but 100. Just like an hour, it would consist of 100 minutes. Moreover, by optimizing the production process for the new flow of time, the authorities were going to introduce a 20-hour working day! The story about the new metric measurement even showed an interview with Deputy Prime Minister Dess Corcoran, who praised the effectiveness of the new time system. And on the Adelaide City Hall they even installed a new main clock with a ten o'clock dial. From such a plot, the audience was speechless, and, probably, they would have moved away from shock for a long time if the same Deputy Prime Minister had not smiled and announced a successful April Fool's prank!

7. The case of the bra

On April 1, 1982, the Daily Mail reported that a local manufacturer had sold 10,000 "bad bras" that caused unique and unprecedented problems for the women who wear them and those around them. According to the initial data, copper wire was used for the manufacture of the supporting frame of the bra, intended for installing a fire alarm. When copper comes into contact with nylon and is heated by body heat, it begins to produce static electricity, which, in turn, disrupts the broadcasts of local television and radio stations. There is evidence that the chief engineer of the reputable British Telecom organization ordered that all employees show what type of bra they were wearing!

8. A person can fly using only the power of their own lungs!

In April 1934, numerous American newspapers printed photographs of a man flying using only the power of his own lungs. The caption to the photo explained that a special device was attached to the chest of the "pilot", which consisted of a box and two horizontal rotors. A person blew into a special hole, thereby causing the rotor blades to rotate. The pilot was also wearing skis, which, if necessary, he used as landing gear.

In fact, what the American newspapers printed as a unique scientific discovery was an April Fool's joke of the German magazine "Berliner Zeitung Illustrirte", which the Americans conscientiously wrote off.

9. Japanese 26-Day Marathon

On April 1, 1981, the same world-famous Daily Mail published a story about an unfortunate Japanese long-distance runner, Kimo Nakajimi. A Japanese man took part in the London Marathon, but due to an April Fool's translation error, he decided he had to run for 26 days (in fact, the marathon was only 26 miles). It is said that Nakajimi is still running somewhere along the roads of England, having decided to finish the competition.

10 Dutch Tree Disease That Affects Redheads

On April 1, 1973, BBC Radio, notorious for its penchant for all sorts of jokes, aired an interview with an elderly academic who talked about the government's efforts to stop the spread of the Dutch Elm tree disease. The doctor described some of the amazing discoveries that were made in the course of the study of the disease. The most striking fact about the new infection was that it mostly affects red-haired people. A man with fiery hair, having caught the disease, turned yellow and bald for several days. This was due to the similarity of the red blood formula and the soil conditions in which the trees affected by the disease grew. Therefore, in connection with all sorts of risks, redheads were advised to stay as far away from the forest as possible.

However, the famous academic at the end of the broadcast turned out to be just a popular comedian Spike Milligan. But his message did have the desired result - the listeners broke into a sincere, April Fool's smile!

This is exactly what I wish for you, your Dikmi! Smile more often, because happiness is very close!

The best pranks for the first of April at school

April Fool's Day is loved by many, especially schoolchildren. They are ready to play pranks at any moment, because no one punishes for this on the first of April. At the same time, each student does not forget about attentiveness and constantly expects a trick from his peers. In this part of the article I will consider several ideas for drawing schoolchildren. They require little preparation and provide an incredible effect.

• "Paper Draw". Before the holiday, prepare several sheets of paper with a variety of inscriptions. Notifying about repairs, lack of water or cancellation of classes is ideal. Put up graffiti on the walls at school and in the school yard. Just don't get caught by the teachers.
• "Holiday Brick". A classmate who has a roomy backpack with a lot of pockets will suit the role of the victim. When the object of the prank leaves the property unattended, hide a brick or large stone in one of the pockets. After class, the student will automatically put on a backpack and will not pay attention to the fact that the burden has become heavier. The results of the draw will be announced the next day.
• "Goodbye, school" . The draw is suitable for classmates who often miss classes. On April 1, give a peer a letter on behalf of the class teacher with a notice of expulsion from school.
• « Fantomas» . Burn ten matches. Spread the remaining ashes on both hands, then go up to the victim from behind and close her eyes. As soon as the object of the draw guesses you, remove your hands and quickly put it in your pocket. A classmate will not suspect that he passed facial treatment.
• « Soap and blackboard» . On the day of laughter, not only schoolchildren, but also teachers are played. If the teacher's anger is not terrible, rub the board with soap before class. The teacher's attempts to write something on the blackboard will fail.

When choosing a prank, remember that actions should not offend a classmate. In general, on this day, it is recommended to be attentive to both schoolchildren and teachers, because school-age children are unpredictable.

Popular pranks for friends

Laughter improves mood and has a positive effect on life expectancy. And the first of April is a wonderful occasion to play a trick on friends and laugh a lot. It is possible that thanks to the draw, the life of a close friend will increase by one bright day. In this part of the article you will find ideas that will help in organizing a five-minute laugh.

1. "Head in the Bank". Invite your friends to get together and spend April Fool's Eve at your home. Before the guests arrive, fill the jar with water, dip a friend's photo in the liquid and refrigerate. During the evening pastime, ask the sacrifice to bring bottle of beer from the refrigerator. The effect of surprise will work one hundred percent.
2. "Fizzy". Great way to get laid. Invite friends home, offer iced cola. But instead of regular ice, put pieces with Mentos frozen inside in glasses. When the ice melts, the candies will react with the drink, causing a fountain to spurt out of the glass.
3. "Time to get up". Before the day of laughter, ask a friend for a phone to make a call. Step aside and secretly set your alarm for 5am. Call a friend back in the morning and ask if they enjoyed getting up early.
4. "Screen of Death". If a friend spends a lot of time at the computer, the next April Fool's prank is recommended. Take a screenshot of the blue screen and surreptitiously set the resulting image as a desktop wallpaper on a friend's computer. Don't forget to create a folder and put all shortcuts in it to increase believability.
5. "Prank on the phone". Call a friend for any reason, and after a few minutes of conversation, say that you will call back in 5 minutes. During the next call, make sure that a friend hears an unexpected scream instead of the usual greeting.

How to prank your parents

If you decide to play a prank on your parents on April 1, you will have to try hard. In the case of parents, topical jokes are inappropriate, since dad and mom are the most dear people who require attention and reverent attitude. As for the main purpose of the April Fool's Relatives Prank, it's all about family fun. How to joke?

1. "Dessert with surprise". Pass the processed cheese through a grater, add crushed garlic and chopped hot pepper. Roll the mixture into balls and sprinkle generously with coconut flakes. The spicy taste of an appetizing dessert is guaranteed to surprise parents.
2. "Sudden Letter". On the day of laughter, put a letter in the mailbox on behalf of one of the utilities. In the letter, indicate that in the near future a new cable will be laid on the roof of the house, and fragments of concrete may fall from the roof during work. To protect the windows, it is recommended to seal them with tape. If the parents believe, don't let them go too far. Tell me it's a prank.
3. "Toothpaste with a twist". In the daily hustle and bustle, parents usually forget about the approach of the first of April and regularly fall for this draw. Stretch cling film over the tube at the point where the paste is extruded. Then close the lid and remove excess material. When parents want freshen your breath, they will not be able to squeeze out the paste.
4. "The bad news". Ask a person you know to call the parents on behalf of the school principal and report the child's expulsion due to constant absenteeism. The main thing is to notify relatives about the draw in a timely manner.
5. "Merry Communal". Scan an old payment using a graphics editor, change important information and set a sky-high amount. After that, print a new receipt on the printer, delicately cut it with scissors and slip it under the door.

Remember, pranking parents on April 1st is much more difficult than pranking friends or classmates. Therefore, to achieve the result, connect your imagination and demonstrate your acting skills to the maximum.

Funny pranks in the office for colleagues

The first of April is the best occasion to slightly defuse the work environment, play tricks on colleagues and laugh together. Recently, more and more people arrange office pranks on colleagues. If you want to join them, look below for original ideas that will help prank colleagues and make the holiday unforgettable.

• "Naughty Mouse". On the eve of the first of April, stay in the office, seal the optical mice with thin paper or stationery tape. The expected effect will appear the next morning, when, after turning on the computer, colleagues will notice a loss of control over the system.
• "Spot" . Mix ammonia with phenolphthalein. Both drugs are sold in pharmacies. The result is a red liquid. Pour the composition into a fountain pen and, if successful, shake it onto a colleague's shirt or blouse. After a few seconds, the alcohol will evaporate and the stains will disappear.
• "Office mess". A colleague's stationery will help in organizing the draw. Replace the pens with analogues, in which the caps are glued, and cover the tips of the pencils with a layer of colorless nail polish. When you arrive at work, watch the victim suffer.
• "Unexpected Guest". If the office receives a lot of visitors every day, and each of the colleagues has a separate office, replace the sign on the door of the victim. The inscription "Toilet" will do.
• "Top secret". The draw is ideal for accounting or an office with a huge turnover of documents. Collect a bunch of unnecessary papers, file them into a folder, stick a note “top secret” on top and put it on the table of one of the employees. Believe me, you have never seen such a detective show.

Video instruction

When choosing a prank option, be sure to consider relationships with colleagues. Use the most "cruel" pranks in relation to colleagues with whom relations are warm. Also remember that a joke should not interfere with the normal course of the working day.

Harmless jokes for a girl

Girls are different. Some react adequately to innocent jokes, others are very offended. If you decide on the first of April to play a girl, do not overdo it. Dumb and cynical jokes and jokes in this case are inappropriate. Only a beautiful and original draw will provide the desired effect.

1. "Cosmetics with a trick". Buy a girl an expensive face mask. Pour the contents of the jar into another container, and instead pour thick mayonnaise. Surely the girl will be delighted with such a gift and wants to immediately try it in practice. Laughing, give the real remedy.
2. "A haircut" . In advance, get a strand of artificial hair that matches the girl's hair in color. Having chosen the right moment, take large scissors, approach the girl from behind, click the scissors loudly and throw your hair on the floor. The effect is simply amazing.
3. "Request" . Hide a spool of thread under a sweater or T-shirt, and bring the end of the thread out with a needle. Ask the girl to remove the thread from the clothes and enjoy the spectacle. The efforts of the discouraged assistant look comical.
4. "Wonder Hairdryer". If a girl uses daily hair dryer, pour some flour or starch into it. When she decides to dry her hair, she will be in for a surprise. Such a prank is very effective, but after the fireworks, the instigator has to clean up.
5. "Feeling of fear". It so happened that spiders cause fear in girls. On the eve of the first of April, buy a rubber spider in the store and tie a rope to it. At the right moment, quietly lower the creature on the girl's shoulder. You will hear the effect in a few seconds.

When playing a girl, remember that she is a delicate and fragile creature. So forget about pranks that bring physical or mental pain. You will do everything right if, after the draw, she will laugh too.

In the case of guys, the assortment of April Fools' jokes is no worse than with girls. And if a young man also has a great sense of humor, there are no restrictions on the implementation of even the most daring ideas. Most importantly, avoid sensitive situations.

• "Flood". While the guy is sleeping, carefully sew the duvet cover to the sheet. In the morning, run into the bedroom and say that the neighbors flooded the apartment. Shocked by the news, the guy will try to quickly get out of bed, but it wasn’t there.
• "Good news" . If the guy is not ready for family life, please him on April 1st with the next joke. Draw with a colored marker on pregnancy test the number of strips required for a positive result.
• "Savior Hero" . On the eve of the first of April, tell the guy that you are not feeling well. In the morning, ask him to run to the pharmacy for the herb for the tincture. Come up with a name for the grass yourself. Get dressed quickly, follow the guy from behind and watch the young man try to buy a non-existent product. Very funny.
• "Theft". If a guy has automobile while he sleeps, take the keys and drive the vehicle to another location. After that, wake up the betrothed and say that the car was stolen. Just be sure to report the prank before calling law enforcement.
