- a large zip tie borrowed from an electrician that was fastened on the drive shaft of a truck. Makes it sound like the U joint is out.
- Fire crackers thrown into the catch tray while wielding or cutting something. Once the splatter hit's it, the fire crackers go off, scaring the bejesus out of you. The smaller "chinese firecrackers" can make it sound like your having a flashback going into the gas lines of a cutting torch, which REALLY scares the crap out of you.
- Coming back from lunch and then finding your tool belt suspended 30 to 50 feet in the air from an I-beam.
- Finding your tool box glued to the floor with a tube of Henry's adhesive.
- Oxy-acetelyne bombs by using either a hospital condom, or an AAFES cup. Makes a large boom to scare the crap out of everyone.
- During an exercise, duck tape a sound sleeper to their cot and haul them outside somewhere and leave them.
etc etc.

One that we used to pull a lot we would wait for someone to finish up their reapirs on a unit then when they went it to have a supervisor sign off on it we would either disconnect a fuel line or a battery while they where gone.Of course the thing would not run and they sit there for a minute or two trying to figure out what went wrong.
I used to wait for someone to park a truck then when they left it unsupervised I would hop in and change the channel on the two way radio turn it up full blast I'd set the wipers to full speed.
Sometimes I would only change the two-way radio channel that was more of a dummy test in our job you should get calls regularly so if you have brains you notice that something is up fairly quickly.I had one guy come in two hours later and he was happy about how slow it was that day.I said "hey buddy attention to detail what channel are you on?"
