Over the course of a year – and dozens of cartons of eggs later – the young man has compiled the prank footage into one YouTube video, which has since gone viral.

The mum proved to have very good hands, catching almost every egg and sometimes grabs them one handed.

Every time she sees the object flying through the air towards her, she yells out a hilarious “noooo!” before laughing and scolding her son.

Alicia Hamilton fooled her little brother when she told him a sachet of wasabi was really just ‘mushy peas’.

Of course, he takes the bait and the result – while slightly cruel – is hilarious.

A dad successfully tricked his son with an old, pranking classic.

While the boys sleeps in the passenger seat of their car, his dad swerves suddenly and loudly screams.

This wakes up the boy, who looks terrified and also begins to scream. He calls his father a ‘jerk’ before closing his eyes again.

Men seem to have an obsession with pranking their girlfriends.

One man put a lot of effort in this cruel trick on his partner.

He dresses up a dummy to look like their young son and puts the mannequin onto a quad bike.

As the boy’s mother approaches, the quad bike takes off with her ‘son’ and flies up a ramp before exploding on the other side.

Obviously distressed, she soon twigs and tells her partner repeatedly, “that’s not funny!”
