Sometimes pranks don’t work. They fail. FAIL. FAIL!!!

The bucket of water on the head prank is one of the oldest there is. I’m sure someone, somewhere was playing this prank on one of their friends centuries ago. But with a bedpan full of wee instead of a bucket.

However, it doesn’t always go according to plan. Whether the vessel is perched perilously on top of a door or whether it’s held in position by the victim (as in this video), it’s not foolproof.

This guy shows incredible dexterity in managing to extract himself from a drenching. Unfortunately his reaction, and the reaction of those around him, makes me want to scream. So I will.
