Pranknet is an organization that prank calls people from miles away and convinces them to do malicious things.

Here is 1 recording of them convincing a lady thousands of miles away to take a drink of urine.


Another thing they like to do is convincing hotel guests to destroy their hotel room.(busting out the windows, throwing the TV out the window, pulling fire alarms, setting sprinkler systems off)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkkODCrjlyg



I perused the thread to see if anyone has been as hard on the OP as I think he deserves, and it doesn't look like it. The behavior of the assholes making these prank calls has been condemned, but not the OP who posted it up with a positive review, so, let me just say..


Are you fucking serious? How fucking old you? Do you have any fucking concept of morality or personal responsibility? Normally I don't get personal on TL but this is fucking bullshit. Not only is this shit dangerous and wrong, it's illegal, and some of the degenerate pieces of shit who make these calls have gone to jail. Only a piece of shit loser who has never experienced responsibility and real life would think this shit is funny or ok.

I don't find this funny, but I can't say I feel sorry for the idiots who fell for this.

If you're gonna just blindly follow someone's instructions, even when they sound stupid as hell, then you kinda deserve what's coming to you.
I mean think about it, would it work if he asked them to just give a random person $100? No. Because when there's money involved, people's scam alert comes up instantly, but drink from a random recipient? SURE, WHY NOT?! Throw a TV out a window? SURE, WHY NOT?!

Well, whoever fell for this is an idiot, they should be glad they weren't scammed out of their life savings, not that there'd be much to scam them out of, but come on, why do we pity stupid people?

They might not have been scammed out of their life savings but they certainly did pay for destroying the TV. You think you can trash a hotel room and not pay damages? I do feel sorry for them. It's bullying pure and simple. Just because some people might not be as smart doesn't give others the right to abuse them for our amusement any more than small or physically weak people deserve to get abused by the meat head who thinks it's funny to stick some small kids head in the toilet. It's fucking disgusting. Just because I have something in some area of my life that gives me an advantage over you doesn't give me the right to embarrass and abuse you. Maybe they are idiots. So fucking what.
Let me ask you a question? Have you ever been taken advantage of. Guess what? By your own fucking logic...you fucking deserved it. You should have been smarter, faster, bigger, stronger, richer, better looking, or whatever and it wouldn't have happened would it?

If you actually fall for this, you're an idiot. And there's nothing wrong with messing with stupid people. If you think otherwise, you're probably an idiot too.

Man you got mad..and you bring up an $18/hr job...honestly that's just trying to be cool..no one gives a fuck what you make on a gaming website unless we asked if you were working for ESPORTS so get that trash out of here, no one gives a fuck where you work in this thread or what you make. This topic is stupid, it's not funny, these guys are assholes and you seem to be one too so I can see why YOU find this funny, not the clear 99% of this community.

Confirmed sociopath.


Confirmed indeed when he's truly 21 and not bluffing.
(LOL I tell people on the internet I'm 21 and make 18$ per hour! Even though I'm a loser and unemployed, nice prank, right? They even believe me!)
killamane, why dont you prove to us that you're 21 & make 18$ / hour?

So from what i understand from the people defending the bad stuff "because their stupid its their fault" logic, dose that mean the ones im about to move close to when i go overseas im allowed to smash them by the same logic?

I'm a bigger stronger person most likely and they were stupid enough to post such things (e.g trolls) to anger such a person im allowed to smash you right? because you were rather stupid in saying such things when people can reach you right?

How do people come up with such logic wtf people ....... didn't your parents teach you anything or did you just find right and wrong hard to understand.

Having a laugh is ok i guess altho most wouldn't agree with your sense of humour but well its your sense of humour isn't it, but if you don't think its wrong to be like that to other people (namely the really bad pranks) your not really worth talking to you about it because theirs something wrong with you and you don't care about it.

Look, I know what you're saying, but don't get me wrong, I don't think that the prankers have no fault. I do think it's stupid and should be illegal. All I said was that if you're THAT stupid to do whatever someone at a telephone tells you, then you have to bear the consequences. I mean, how else would they learn?

Really, you can't compare this to physical violence, as many of you are. This is COMMON SENSE. Do you know why they call it that? Because it should be common.

And yeah, to answer your question, I have been taken advantage of, mostly when I was really young, now, not so much. And why not? Because I've learned my fking lessons, that's why.
Even now, people would only take advantage of me if I allowed them to.
Who is stopping you from becoming faster/bigger/stronger? Nobody.
Smarter, that's really hard to become, I'll give you that, but hey, it doesn't take a genius to NOT drink piss. Sorry. I still don't feel bad for them.

But, again, that doesn't mean that it shouldn't be illegal, or that the ones who did it are not disgusting, it's just that I disagree to protecting stupid people. You feel sorry about that, yet let politicians steal and mop the floor with entire countries, who's the dumbass in that scenario? (i'm mostly ranting about the 'occupy' movement now, so i'll just stop)
I guess it's natural selection in the end. The guys who wondered what was moving the bushes lived longer than the ones that assumed it was the wind.

I actually liked that one comedy central show Crank Yankers(?) but somehow these didn't amuse me as much. I think it's because the ones on the show had much more interesting conversations and dialogue than just trying to get some guy to drink pee or whatever (which you can't even see).

That's a little unfair. It's easy to see how this could be funny, even if the premise is *sociopathy*.

Are you actually insinuating that someone being stupid/guillible/innocent deserves PUNISHMENT!? That for being less fortunate, they should be EXPLOITED!? People like you are what's wrong in this world. And before you say "but it would happen to them anyways!", yeah it would. Because other people like you use the same fallatic logic. Because others think that lesser mental ability justifies cruelty and that it would happen to them anyways, because others use the same logic as the one before. No matter how stupid someone is, no matter how guillible they are, no matter how retarded they are, they don't deserve to be treated like they are the piss of society.

Actually we are. Cause we are not sociopaths, we don't do that kind of shit to our fellow citizens, and we have the moral high ground as what they are doing is illegal, immoral, dangerous, and dumb as hell.

Speaks for itself that it's child rapists and violent retards doing this shit. No empathy whasofuckingever.

Common sense is that disgusting shit that only sociopaths and psychopaths would find funny, like this, isn't funny. So you seem to be lacking in common sense. It's not okay to convince a stupid person to hurt themself or do stupid shit just because they are stupid. Hurting others for cheap fun is something only people with no empathy think is okay.
