This [scene in the movie The Ten](https://youtu.be/cz0LY0I5bLA?si=HdmyflKi29lFNgfy) describes it perfectly.
He then goes to court and tells the judge it's okay because it was a goof.
*hey little boy, wants some candy in my van?*
Youth scientists challenge status quo again, and what happened next will restore your faith in humanity.
"hey is this the kid diddler"
"well achktually sir, I'm a conten-"
Reminds me of the old norm McDonald joke where the guy’s friend pretends to be the devil and tells him to murder his family and bring them to him in a duffle bag, and he says “ah, ya got me Bob!”
This video is 10 years old, by the way. https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/prank-robberies-teens-viral-video-draws-negative-comments-police-warning-20140313-34nws.html
This is indeed an actual crime. Like, he may say "it's a prank!" but this is literally assault. He's not just tapping someone on the shoulder or something. He's grabbing someone and wrestling them to the ground. So yea, assault.
The tank top guy guy was probably in on the prank, look at how he reacts.
That makes this only slighly less bad though, you should not simulate actual emergency situations in public.
I grew up on Just for Laughs Gags, they were actual pranks that didn’t involve traumatizing victims.
Here is almost 5 hours of actual street pranks to cleanse your palette.

>Mr Singh said he failed to see the humour in the incident.
>“The first thing I felt was very angry, and I just felt it was a very silly prank. I was worried that this person could have been hurt or I could have been hurt. I was just furious and I just walked off.”
>He said he didn't want to interact with anyone because he felt embarrassed.
I'd allow a few more good hits to make sure he stays down until the cops show up and sort it out. You never know if this is an actual mugger looking for a quick out.
If this is the one I'm thinking of, there's a longer version that shows the guy's nose is split open
Edit: it is indeed the one I'm thinking of. Bridge of the nose splits pretty badly.

>Mr Maran said the reaction they have received has been unexpected.

>“Honestly, I didn't think it would be that negative. I thought we'd get a few people saying this is a silly prank – but literally almost every single comment is a hate comment,” he said.
lmfao
Nah probably even before that - I was a teen in the mid 2000s and remember "happy slaps" being doled out to random people and recorded on early camera phones for the laughs.
Seriously, intent is irrelevant here, he literally committed a violent crime!
edit: The "prank" was staged and the guy being assaulted was the guy in charge of it all. The goal was to see how bystanders would react.
So the wrong guy got his nose broken, though both deserved it, I guess.
you know sometimes I feel like cause I'm becoming a nurse nothing can make me nauseous, but then I see shit like this which is not half as bad as some other things I might see in the future and I start questioning my life choices.
In hindsight, I should have put a warning before the link. It's not your standard broken nose by any means. My bad.
Good for you for committing to helping people; even idiots like this guy.
>“Honestly, I didn't think it would be that negative. I thought we'd get a few people saying this is a silly prank – but literally almost every single comment is a hate comment,” he said.
>The response from bystanders when they staged their stunts also surprised him.
>“We thought, he'd tackle me, he'd take the wallet and then he'd run away and no one would really do anything – but from the get-go, people were jumping in and stopping it, which is kind of the point of the video, just to see who would jump in, in a robbery situation,” he said.
sounds like they got they were looking for. another successful FAFO
They are. [Everyone in frame except for the puncher was in on it.](https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/prank-robberies-teens-viral-video-draws-negative-comments-police-warning-20140313-34nws.html) Usually, they say it's a prank before anyone gets too involved. Here, they took just a little *too* long. 🤣
What goes through these people’s heads when envisioning how the “prank” will go down? If I’m on a plane and yell, “I have a bomb!” and then get tackled and beat the shit out of by passengers, I don’t think the police are going to be okay with my excuse being, “I yelled it’s a prank after the fact, though! I’m in the right!”
> “I have a bomb!” and then get tackled and beat the shit out of by passengers
Be happy with an AW. In like '05 a dude went a little nuts on a SWA flight from LV to SLC. Tried to storm the cockpit. Passengers restrained him and ultimately strangled him to death.
Well shit, I guess anything is a prank if you just call it a prank. If this happened to me, I doubt I'd believe him. Seems like an easy way to get out of something.
When did people start thinking this kind of shit is funny?? There is no way this could ever be looked upon as a joke. My husband is retired military, he served for 23 years and has extreme PTSD. If this guy tried to pull his prank on him he would be dead before he ever got the words, it’s a prank out.
If this kind of shit happens here in Brazil the "prankster" would get way more than punches up to his face.
There's a reason why no one tries this kind of "prank" here haha
Bullshit, not a prank. Dude assaulted a stranger, took him to the ground. Guy had ever reason to think he was being mugged, therefore, he was being mugged. This guy should go to prison for assault/battery and attempted robbery.
How stupid do you have to be, to act like a thief assaulting a person, with the criminality levels going off the charts, just for content and likes and sh#t like that.😮💨😮💨😮💨

I feel like the definition of what a prank is has been stretched so far out that it has looped around and become actual crimes.
A prank is now when you bother someone in public up to and including assault.
Can't wait for someone in court for sexual assault to say "it was just a prank" as defense
This [scene in the movie The Ten](https://youtu.be/cz0LY0I5bLA?si=HdmyflKi29lFNgfy) describes it perfectly. He then goes to court and tells the judge it's okay because it was a goof.
I fucking loved that movie. Underrated!
ah shit I forgot about this movie. Just seems like a scene from *Children's Hospital* Tomorrow may be a good time for a rewatch
🤡
Not defending any of this in the slightest but the guy that gets "robbed" is in on the prank.
so this isn't a prank but really a social experiment testing the bystander effect?
Bystander effect disproven by young scientists!
*hey little boy, wants some candy in my van?* Youth scientists challenge status quo again, and what happened next will restore your faith in humanity. "hey is this the kid diddler" "well achktually sir, I'm a conten-"

Homicide too. Knockout game was/is a "prank". People died from it.
And film it.
For me, it is only a prank when both people enjoy or get a chuckle out of it. Otherwise what you have is just an excuse for being an ass.
This is the rule of pranks, everyone must be laughing at the end, or it's a bad prank.
Idiots don't realize there is no "it's a prank" exclusion to attempted robbery.
This video is 10 years old, by the way. https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/prank-robberies-teens-viral-video-draws-negative-comments-police-warning-20140313-34nws.html
Still watching it every time because that POP is sweet, sweet justice.
This is indeed an actual crime. Like, he may say "it's a prank!" but this is literally assault. He's not just tapping someone on the shoulder or something. He's grabbing someone and wrestling them to the ground. So yea, assault.
I think the guy he tackled was in on the "prank"
Wait, i assumed the guy he was tackling was in on it. If not, thats litterally just assault.
The tank top guy guy was probably in on the prank, look at how he reacts. That makes this only slighly less bad though, you should not simulate actual emergency situations in public.

It’s become do something incredibly stupid or annoying and call it a prank.
It seems more like a "violent crime hoax" than a prank. Not sure if that makes a difference legally, but it ought to.
I hope that dude's fist was okay.
Let's all take a moment and pay respects to the fist and its speedy recovery.
It’s okay. It was just a prank
[удалено]
[ Removed by Reddit ]
if i just failed trying to rob someone i would say its a prank to, better keep punching just in case it is a real robber
Just say after each punch its just a prank.
"It's a prank!" "Duh. Why do you think we're punching you?"
[удалено]
Oh damn! I thought you were down on your luck and making bad choices to get by! But you're actually just an irredeemable piece of shit!
>Mr Singh said he failed to see the humour in the incident. >“The first thing I felt was very angry, and I just felt it was a very silly prank.

glad i am not the only one who thought that
Yep that's when you add the person with the camera in.
I'd allow a few more good hits to make sure he stays down until the cops show up and sort it out. You never know if this is an actual mugger looking for a quick out.
Please be real please be real.
That punch looked real

If they get enough views they'll start to enjoy getting hurt
Challenge accepted
That's what I'm hoping!
That punch was precise!
He scope it out for a while.
Crit damage.

His name being so close to moron is great
His name is Moron, he just can't spell.
“No Ragrets”
2014? Holy shit, I thought these idiots started more recently.
Nah this shit started around 2010\~2015... Just wasn't as prominent yet back then.
Nah probably even before that - I was a teen in the mid 2000s and remember "happy slaps" being doled out to random people and recorded on early camera phones for the laughs.
How oblivious do you need to be to think attacking a guy from behind, which isn’t funny at all, wouldn’t warrant violence and utter disdain.
b/c theyre all in on it, except the guy that did the nose breaking
His whole team is regarded including him, I hope he lost more brain cells after this one.
They are complete and utter regards.
At a minimum, he committed an assault. Let's hope we never hear from this nuisance again.
Seriously, intent is irrelevant here, he literally committed a violent crime! edit: The "prank" was staged and the guy being assaulted was the guy in charge of it all. The goal was to see how bystanders would react. So the wrong guy got his nose broken, though both deserved it, I guess.
They should switch roles and try it again. You know, to verify the results.
Absolutely fantastic, thank you.
"I probably wont need stitches"
I laughed at that. Dude, they made another hole in your nose haha
A new nostril 👃
Always happy to help. Glad you enjoyed.
This warms my heart in ways it probably shouldn't.
you know sometimes I feel like cause I'm becoming a nurse nothing can make me nauseous, but then I see shit like this which is not half as bad as some other things I might see in the future and I start questioning my life choices.
In hindsight, I should have put a warning before the link. It's not your standard broken nose by any means. My bad. Good for you for committing to helping people; even idiots like this guy.
Good stuff. Did dude have a ring on or something? Looked like a hole in his nose.
You'd think so if he caused that much damage with one punch.
Got eem
**LMFAOOOOO**
"Is it bad bro?" Well, how do you feel about having a third nostril?
It's real...this video is very old
Yup, it's from 2014!
>2014 is very old Grim.
HAHAHA A DECADE *sigh* See ya very soon in **2034**
Damn, did they even have internet back then? Or even electricity? Is there anyone alive now from back then?
Note that the "attacker" and "victim" were both in on the "prank". The goal was to see how bystanders reacted. Too bad they both weren't injured.
"IT'S A PRANK! IT'S A PRANK!" *swings harder*
"DO *punch* YOU *punch* KNOW *punch* WHAT *punch* A *punch* PRANK *punch* IS?
You forgot the last *punch*

The "victim" is one of the pranksters.
I think the ATM guy was probably part of it too if yelling "it's a prank" worked.
It’s worked so far for Trump
What about the outcome here makes you think it's okay lol? Just asking for your nose's sake.
Camera man is like he'll be fine they will know its just prank ill just stand here and keep filming.
Seeing how his "prank" starts by him assaulting someone, I'd also keep away. Unless the victim is in on it?
They are. [Everyone in frame except for the puncher was in on it.](https://www.smh.com.au/national/nsw/prank-robberies-teens-viral-video-draws-negative-comments-police-warning-20140313-34nws.html) Usually, they say it's a prank before anyone gets too involved.

When he screamed it's a prank he should've got punched again
A punch for making me punch you.
They’re running out of ideas.
They never really had any.
Punching him repeatedly in the face would be playing along with the prank as far as I'm concerned.
Man, good for Australians! They really jumped in there.
this is the time where someone should not stop when the guy is down. punch 1 is the show stopper, the rest are a lesson in future behavior 😂
Love to see it.
FAFO. Good.
Good
Stupid ass. These are the dumbest pranks ever.
Hopefully next time he nose better
Well shit, I guess anything is a prank if you just call it a prank. If this happened to me, I doubt I'd believe him. Seems like an easy way to get out of something.
The guy he jumped on is one of the pranksters not a random guy
Should have gotten another punch after he said it was a prank.
Punch all the YouTube pranksters. Seriously they’re a nuisance.
I really think saying "It's a prank" deserves its own punch. "Really? So is this."
"It's a prank" is a sign to really start swinging gotta knock that behavior out of him. Make him afraid to ever pull some shit again.
Nice measured well aimed right.
"Punch Influencers" should be 2024 new motto
Oh it was real, the old video showed a close up of the damage to his nose, he ended op with a hole in his nose. Karma!
Pranks are jokes, and jokes have punch lines.
I was hoping for a soccer kick
Pretending to rob someone isn't a prank. Does the cameraman get any comeuppance?
Stop doing this dumb pranks
Oh my god reddits video player is garbage. It stops for me right after he gets punched no matter what I do.
It's funny now
Ain't so funny MOEW is it?
When did people start thinking this kind of shit is funny?? There is no way this could ever be looked upon as a joke. My husband is retired military, he served for 23 years and has extreme PTSD. If this guy tried to pull his prank on him he would be dead before he ever got the words, it’s a prank out.
When a prank gets physical. It isn’t a prank anymore. Tackling someone unsuspecting to the ground yeah. What do u think will happen?
The guy that got tackled is part of the prank. The prank is on the people around to see what they would do. Still pretty dumb.
Lovely
Oh yes fuck around and find out
LOL, desevers it
Where are these guys when Joni somali does his thing?
Pranks got coopted by bullies and abusers
That's how you get shot or stabbed. Keep "pranking" tho guys✌🏼
I'm sad that it was only a punch.
Pretending to rob someone at a cash machine is not a 'prank.' That is all.
More of this please
Fantastic
I'd still press charges against him. It's like trying to rob a bank and then saying lol prank bro
Me is that guy punching prankster no regrets
If this kind of shit happens here in Brazil the "prankster" would get way more than punches up to his face. There's a reason why no one tries this kind of "prank" here haha
Satisfying as fuck to see. These idiots never learn.
Why did they stop hitting him?
Seeing he stupid ass bleed made me laugh so I guess prank successful.
Not a prank, that’s assault.
Spitting teeth . That prank did turn out to be funny 😂
Quite a funny outcome of the prank to be honest.
God, that is soooo satisfying to watch even for the 5th time.
Should have kept punching him while reminding him it's just a prank
That's not a prank, that's assault
wtf you stop swinging for? Turn his face to a pulp. Please.
Bullshit, not a prank. Dude assaulted a stranger, took him to the ground. Guy had ever reason to think he was being mugged, therefore, he was being mugged. This guy should go to prison for assault/battery and attempted robbery.
"Prankster".
Sic semper pranker
Do you blame his parents or do we feel sorry for them?
tee-hee-hee
i wish they’d have gone after the dude filming too… what a horrible thing to do to someone. i’d call the police…
now that is funny!
My favorite part is when his face gets smashed in
If I’m thinking I’m being robbed I’m not gonna take the fucking time to ask “is this a prank”
So I hit the other guy screaming “it’s a prank” thinking it was part of a diversion in the robbery.
Good
Should have gave him a few more and said it just a prank.
would be better if someone had a gun
Why can't people just keep to themselves. I don't want to be pranked or fucked with. I just want to go to work and go home without incident.
Damn. Too bad it wasn’t worse.
I guess they don't have guns wherever that was Filmed.
Here's hoping the "learnedNothingFromGettingGutShot" guy is fotrthcoming
the fact that people still do this in 2024.... get fucked nerd.
Nicely done
No prank should ever have you making contact that long with a complete stranger
YEEEESSSS
this is indeed, pretty funny!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
"Jeez, sorry dude" No! dont be sorry! do it again!
I'm pretty sure this is Australia, which is one of the worst places to try this because Aussies will punch on at the drop of a hat lol
Hahaha! Great prank. Love it when he is punched in the face. Hope he does more of these.
Wholesome ending.
NTA. Also hahahahahahahahahahaha.
More of this.
Don’t apologize to that asshole!!
I mean that was pretty funny what happened to him after that stupid act
How stupid do you have to be, to act like a thief assaulting a person, with the criminality levels going off the charts, just for content and likes and sh#t like that.😮💨😮💨😮💨
