I'm a lousy prankster but ... let me introduce you to my brother, who's now management level and respectable (or maybe not so much; I've never spoken to his employees ...)
In his younger years, though, it was quite another story.
He and a good buddy once took one of our mother's cigarettes and removed some of the tobacco, replacing it with one of those little exploding thingies that explodes when you light the cigarette. Then they replaced as much tobacco as they could, tamped it down so it looked normal, and put it back in with the other cigarettes.
As luck would have it, Mom lit up that cigarette when the two of them were in the room.
Joke thingie explodes.
Mom levitates three feet off the sofa and comes down running.
Brother and friend are already out the door and halfway down the block and still accelerating.
Fortunately she didn't catch them.
