33 of the Wildest April Fool’s Day Pranks People Have Ever Pulled

When it comes to April Fool’s Day pranks, most people have no shortage of potential victims to choose from. Even so, one Redditor opted not to trick their friends, family, bosses or coworkers, and ended up pulling a fast one on themselves instead in a gag gone wrong. “I stayed up late and switched the sugar with salt by the coffee machine,” they recalled of their would-be practical joke. “The following morning I proceeded to wake up and make myself a steaming hot cup of salted coffee because I’m an idiot.”
Despite this prankster’s idiot status, other April fools managed to get weird with it on the beloved (and feared) holiday. Here are the wildest pranks they’ve pulled, including perilously placed ketchup packets, hours of Nickleback and a door handle that stayed sticky until summer.
