Practical jokes you have done or received
Have seen heaps of the usual one involving someone sleeping minus an eye brow or face painted in texta but tell us some of the more ingenious ones.
Have with the help of a couple of mates carried an old bed with two blokes passed out on it about half a mile away and placed it in a favourite parking spot down by the beach in Bunbury and left them. Was magic hearing them relate the story how they woke up with cars parked all round them, no street lights and no idea where they were.
While anchored at night well offshore up north, tied a twenty litre bucket on mates line while he wasn't fishing and dropped it over the side to be carried off with the tide. Must have taken him twenty minutes to finally get it in to view and see "colour" and another ten to get it to the boat. Lesson 1--never leave your line in the water un attended.
Steaming in to Exmouth for the first time for the crew on the boat and was asked "what are those big towers?", "Worlds highest bungee jumping set up "was the answer "and untill we have unloaded you cannot have the time off".
Unloaded the next morning and the three boys bolted over to the packed tourist centre and asked "when does the next bus go to the bungee jumping towers?" They were back not long after and went crook, "you f#$%^&ng lied to us" and then saw the funny side of it, they said nearly everyone in the building cracked up when they overheard them asking.

We got Original Teenage On
We got Original Teenage On the forum a pretty good one. We went out for a mulloway bash at point walter and we recorded on a phone a few weeks earlier the sound of a Drag screeming, slowwwww pull then slowly got faster until it was very fast, and very unnatural movements.
Anyway We put the phone on loud, Stuck it as the ringtone and put it in nicsons bag next to his rod..
He went for a piss or something and then we rang it, he BOLTED back to his rod, yanks the rod up and then sets the hook on absolutely nothing. The other four of us were pissing ourselves laughing and he still didn't have a clue. Will never forget it, we still give him shit for it.

Shit
Shit where do i start! When i worked at i mine, and just started seeing the mrs, i was keeping it quiet, and sneaking around camp. Few of the boys came to my room, and found that i wasnt in there. So the pulled off my shower head, and filled it with tuna. Next morning i snuck home to have a shower and go to work..but when i turned the shower on..nothing come out. They had put to much tuna in...
Anyway i narrowed it down to the main ring leader. I had just snatched it from work as i was heading away on a overseas trip. The day i was leaving, i went to the camp office, and told them i had locked myself out of my room, and when asked what room number..told her my mates room number...and got his key.
I went to his room, and hid 3 tins of Sardines thru his room. Under carpet, in light shade...in buttons of toilet system ect Then turned his aircon off as it was 42c outside. I then flew back to Perth, then off to London....lets just say, i was getting a few threats over my hotmail!

Years ago had a boss
that always ate our lollies, kept saying to him, can you buy some and put them in the bowl and when you feel like one, you won't feel guilty and us yelling at you. This went on for about 2 weeks. So one of the girls made some freckles out of laxatives, boss couldn't help himself and ate the lot. Needless to say he wasn't in work for 2 days hahahah teach him for stealing our lollies.

Many and varied
over the years - worked with an absolute Pain in The A... who would leave his dirty dishes in the sink until someone else washed them ( i threw them in the skip out back ) so i left a stool sample container full of cold pea soup in the lunchroom fridge with his name on it - the girls roasted him. Set up a bodgy UK Hotmail account in the name of a deranged ex workmate and bombarded the boss and others with phony emails threatening to come back to Oz and stay with them, take their wives out and convert them etc - Forged abusive emails on successive April Fools days - from irate clients to the same dopey workmate - caught him year in, year out - too many more to count.

I was maybe 10 or 11 years
I was maybe 10 or 11 years old and keen to learn everything about anything, dad was working on an old lawn mower at the time and was getting sick of me asking questions so he thought he'd stop me asking, he asked me to hold the spark plug lead, after some more questions asking what the lead was and what it did i agreed to hold it for him, he pulled the mower over.. nothing, so he said that i might have to hold the lead ontop of the spark plug, after yet more questions i did what he said, i couldnt figure out why he was laughing and smiling so much.. UNTIL he gave the mower an almighty pull.. WHACK!! i didnt know what hit me, felt like i put my whole arm into a mouse trap, in the mean time dads on the ground in fits of laughter, TRYING to ask if i was okay, ill get him back one day!
Love this Country!

Hub caps
When cars had hub caps, used to take one hub cap off and put a large bolt washer in it then put it back on.
It doesn't make a noise untill you get up to 15-20 k's then it starts to bounce about and it sounds like the wheel is falling off but once you slow down it stops.
Have seen mechanics scratching their heads trying to work out what it is.
Have put big lumps of occy in hubcaps as well.
One good one is to sew the sleeves up down by the cuffs on a set of overalls. Its a guaranteed laugh to watch them trying to push their arms through and get their shoulders in .
Mate was getting married and we got the spare key to their room in the motel. Pulled the bottom sheet up and spread flour under it , put sheet back down, put top sheet on then another layer of flour then blankets. Did the same to the pillows as well.
Rolled up next morning early and let ourselves in, was beautiful , there they were all covered in flour, through their hair, every where. Took a few pics then let them be.
She has never forgotten!!!

Had to take on this hot
Had to take on this hot student for her placement at work needless to say the boys were pissed that I wasn't sharing. Yep she was smoking but i still had no idea that she was a model, however our mad Canadian colleague was onto it. He dug up pics of a lingerie shoot and plastered them all over the pin up board in my office.
I came in to work that morning and she was acting bloody strange, I was used to this bubbly thing prancing around but she was off. Took me to mid morning to figure out what happened and the boys were literally wetting themselves as I tried to explain to her "no they are not my tug pics, no it wasn't me and yes I think sexual harassment is a bit extreme here"

4 WD hubs
we use to camp out on the warren river beach with several mates and their 4 WDs and during the night i would go around all the fancy bling 4wds old style with manual hubs and turn the free wheeling hubs to 2 wd and then watch the next day when all my mates would get bogged 10 mts from the camp whilst trying to get out onto the beach

First minesite I worked on
First minesite I worked on way back when, the bloke in the room next to me used to leave his boots outside. One night his so called mates had sikaflexed his boots to the footpath and p!ssed in them. Next morning he stepped out of his room and into his boots and fell flat on his face in the dirt then worked out what the wet stuff in his boots was. Same minesite, we had one of "those" leading hands, gave everyone the sh!ts so we took all the wheel nuts off his troopie just before pre-start then jumped on the bus and went to work, it was a quiet night that night.
Another minesite we had a fitter that wasnt too flash with his personal hygiene, amongst other things he used to leave his boots outside the toilet while he was doing number 2's, the workshop T/A put something in his boots one night, old mate thought it was grease, he thought it was funny until he took his boots off at the end of the shift and realised it wasnt grease!

We used to have this SOB
We used to have this SOB working for us in Welshpool, we werelucky he never did stuff at work like he did when he was working on the mines...
One of his tricks was to rig an acid bottle of oxygen+acetylene to the ignition on a truck. The guy turns the key and BOOM.
Next, as an encore, he just disconnected the guy's aircon, pretty nasty when you're in kal!

one that i had done to me
one that i had done to me years ago. we were all down the local club and as the night grew late we had decided to head off to a mates place to play cards and have a few more drinks.a couple of the guys said they would head off to set up and the rest of us to be there in about 1/2 hour. time came so we headed out to the cars, i got into mine , started it up and into gear , releasing the clutch and nothing happened. out of gear and back in a couple more times and still nothing. i then decided to get out and have a look , i found the problem , the mongrels had sat the diff of my car on blocks so the wheels were just off the ground. then i noticed my mates that set off to get the table ready for cards were just around the corner pissing themselves laughing.worst part of it all was i never got the chance to get any of them back

Water melon
Have done that with water melon skin/peel. Gte two big bits and place in front of the drive wheels and just push the car forward on to it.
When they go to take off it just spins the wheels on it and goes nowhere.
Get two sheets of paper and screw them up and push each sheet up in to the toe parts of a pair of shoes or boots.
No good to do just one because they find it straight away.

Heard of that on safety
Heard of that on safety googles or on the bridge of the nose of safety glasses.
A friend of mines boss used to get the apprentices to get him stuff from a shop. Things like left handed spanners, elbow grease, etc. Said friend realised he got caught out once after 5 min of waiting at a hardware store after ordering a few things including a "long weight". Hahaha.
Some of the things were stupid and should be obvious, so guess that makes it funnier when people actually fell for it :p.
Also, a lot of office pranks you can do. E.g. staple a bunch of paper cups and fill them with water. Good luck removing them easily.
A really easy one (particularily if you have a boss that wont appreciate big pranks) is to get a paper cup, fill with cornflakes or something similar. Put a piece of card over it, tip it upsidedown, put on desk, slide card out. As soon as they pick up the cup, will spill everywhere. Bit lame in some ways, but then also not the kind of thing to get you fired, or have someone seek revenge at least, haha.
When I was on the boat at the Abrolhos last year, a few guys put the deckies shoes in the freezer overnight and pulled them out just before he woke up. He managed to curse a bit over that, haha.
Ohh, and then theres the ol trick if you get a hold of someones mobile where you switch the numbers of their girlfriend and mother in the contacts...

Shaving cream
Seen this done and been on the receiving end as well.
Get a full can of shaving cream and an empty deodourant can, take the push button caps off so that the small tubes that run directly into the cans are clear. Place the shaving can tube directly on top of the tube of the deodourant can and push them together so that the fluid from the shaving cream can is running into the other one.
Once you are satisfied there is enough in the deodourant can pull them apart and refit their caps.
When someone wants a squirt of deodourant they are going to get a good squirt of shaving cream instead.

Had this joker at work who
Had this joker at work who parked right up close to the back of my old patrol and I couldn't get the back doors open to throw my gear in to go home. This happened on a couple of occasions so I got some kiln slip ring grease (heavy black sticky stuff)and dipped my finger into it and wiped it along the underside of his wiper blade. All was good until he turned his wipers on when it was starting to rain, wipers went up for the first wipe, all was good, and on the return smeared all the grease onto his windscreen, He could not see a thing, and the more it wiped, the worse it got. Paybacks ARE a bitch.
Cheers

When your mates are out
When your mates are out fishing for the day wind their winch rope on backwards. Takes ages to figure out. I mentioned it to someone once and they did it to me the next weekend.
Also saw some young kids hook a trailer cable to the trailer parked alongside. Sorted it before the carnage could occur but could of been nasty.
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?

two oldies
First one is pretty harmless
lift the receiver off the phone of your work colleauge - with a small piece of clear sticky tape, tape down the disconnect button. work it on well so that it becomes invisible. Sit in the next cubicle and wait for the action to start. Everytime their phone rings and they pick it up it keeps ringing... takes them ages to work it out
Second one happened (apprently ) to a real smart rs in Darwin. He was off on holidays after having made our life a misery for three months. Amazing what can happen when someone sprikles grass seeds onto carpet and waters it......
