I never realized just how much I needed to hear Alan Rickman emit a high pitched giggle because of a fart gag!

[noni]

I absolutely love John. He is a blessing of all that is good, especially in Hollywood. His humor is unmatchable.

[superioraid]

The Harry Potter one was too funny I laughed over and over watching it again and again

Gotta give ‘em credit for maintaining such class after being pranked.

Probably the best video of this series, all of Jonathan's reactions were priceless xD

Started with Frodo and ended with Harry Potter..two once child actors of legendary franchises that are also sometimes mistaken for the other.. 👍...

I always like to think that the Harry Potter fart-prank was the true inspiration for Swiss Army Man 😂

[whitedevil]

so Ellen and her writing team's big idea is to just have someone yell "BOO!" at her guests sometimes? how simple is her audience?

These pranks were great! I like pranks! Today's April fool's day and it's the perfect day for the video to be uploaded. Great job, Watchmojo.

I like wholesome pranks. Nobody get scared, nobody gets hurt, nobody gets wet or dirty. Just wholesome laughs and smiles.

Taylor pranking Taylor is my favorite….and the cast of TBBT doing their dance flash mob (the first time) and Jim’s “bazinga” at the end 😂

Considering how Jimmy Kimmel was in a bit of a prank war with John Krasinski for a while, there were a few times where he got pranked in his own house late at night. With help from Jimmy's wife, Molly, Rihanna came into his bedroom with a bunch of dancers. It happened on a few other occasions with Brittney Spears, Miley Cyrus, and Dua Lipa as well.
