Well, if I had to guess, I would say that the people aboard that bullet train were pretty shocked.
I replaced my friend's insulin with a concentrated sugar solution. He sure didn't see that one coming!
OT: Best actual practical joke we ever pulled required a week of planning and the co-operation of various parents, teachers and an entire friend group. We successfully convinced a girl that her best friend didn't exist. (the best friend was on holiday at the time)
This involved deleting the best friend's facebook account and removing all photographs containing her, removing all trace of her from the girl's house and getting teachers to play along in school - they didn't read out her name in registers and moved someone else into her seat (who insisted that he'd always sat there when questioned by the girl)
When the girl went over to her best friend's house and demanded to see her, the parents of the best friend told her that that was the name they had given to their daughter, who had died aged three.
When we revealed the prank, she was not best pleased.
Cruel, yes.
Elaborate, yes.
Worthwhile, most definitely.

That seems like a complete dick move.Silent observer said:
It's the type of dick move that is incredibly awesome though so I salute you.
Got a lot of these, let's see...
A few years ago my sister and her friends were watching the movie The Grudge. (It's a really bad horror movie that's more funny than scary) They were all watching it on the floor under this big blanket and didn't hear me enter the room. The movie was at the part where the Grudge lady was about to kill the girl in the bed. As soon as she did, I grabbed the legs of one of her friends and drug her across the floor. From their perspective she got sucked under the blanket.
They all screamed and jumped and hit me with things because I was laughing too hard to get away. Priceless.

I tricked some nine-year-old friends of my brother's that me and my friends were drinking in my back yard. The beverage? Sparkling apple juice in a wine bottle lookalike. One of them tried to beat us up with a plastic softball bat, the other one went inside crying.
Both were very odd overreactions.

On the last day of my seventh grade year they were due to hand out awards. That year I had achieved perfect attendance. When they called out my name to give me my award they discovered I was not there. According to my best friend at the time, the whole school laughed.
Melted a wax candle and molded it into the shape of a chocolate bar; Repackaged it and offered it to a gullible friend and then watched him choke on the nastiness.
Nothing much. Usually too lazy.
I did once make my friend think they were insane. I hid my mp3 player attached to speakers behind my couch, had it play a playlist of creepy sounds (creaks, doors squeaking, etc...), and pretended I didn't hear anything. This was during a sleepover, at about 3 in the morning, and they hadn't slept the previous night. That was fun...

Holy crap! That is epic!Silent observer said:
As for me, I wrapped clingy plastic wrap around my friend's house. He had to call the fire department to get him out. (I got the plastic wrap from my school.)
Convinced a friend to almost cheat on his girlfriend by asking out a waitress. I had spent half an hour making him believe that she was asking about him while he was in the bathroom, and when he finally believed me he asked her if she was available. She wasn't, but the true beauty is that she had seen him come in the week before with his girlfriend so she knew he was seeing someone.
I suppose the time I took the new members of my team to the side at their first meet and asked them "what were they thinking" and "do you know how much trouble you can get in". Half of them almost pissed themselves. Good times....
