I think most of these are totally staged.  That is the prank-ee is in on the joke.  Otherwise, the prankster could be charged with assault.  In one real prank the prankster was shot.     


ON POSTING YOUTUBE.   All you have to do is put the YouTube code between the tags.  In the first example only the "aUwgfiFDuMA" has to be put between the  [you tube] and the [/youtube] .  So it would look like this:  NOTE EXTRA SPACE in YouTube was put to prevent the tags from actually working so you could see it.


[you tube] aUwgfiFDuMA [/youtube]

So the result is, once I take out the extra space:

Ken,

The problem is a little s.  https is security.  Delete the s and it works.  At least that is what I learned from someone much smarter than me, thanks Marshal, a few years back.

Thanks guys.  Yeah, no doubt there is some staging there but it still made me laugh.

I find absolutely nothing funny about terrorism.  It is the distillation of pure evil.  And the kind of stupidity depicted in these videos only tends to inure us to the threat posed by radical mooslums.

I don't know how it is where you live, but around here that kind of activity would result in the "terrorist" being lit up.

I hope it was staged. Like CR said, if that had happened around me I would feel justified in shooting the guy before running away. That would be an extremely STUPID prank to try. It could literally get someone killed.

Might "look" good on video but really STUPID.

(Have I said it is stupid??? ;^)

Found this:

http://bearingarms.com/fake-bomb-tossing-jalal-brothers-didnt-get-shot/

So it is still hard to figure what is true and what is not. All I can say is if they got shot they should have seen it coming. They do appear to be in Australia and I do not know if concealed carry is "allowed" there. If not I would hate to be the guy that defended himself only to be brought up on charges in a non gun friendly country.

If I stayed out of jail I'd hunt down the other brother, and beat his butt.

Actually when I found the article stating the "Brother" was not shot I was hoping to find the video of him getting shot. Oh well. But it would be a good lesson on what NOT to do. Also Snopes has a page stating the article to be false as well.


Goes to prove "You can't fix STUPID".

You guys have never left a couple of snakes in a suitcase on your front steps to see who picks them up before....I can tell you haven't.

Possums.

No one wanted to handle snakes of any kind.


Left in a suitcase on a street corner.

Yep....possums.


Do know a couple of guys who put some feral cats in one one time.
