Prank Wars

So Jimmy Kimmel must have decided to have one of his infamous and very rare, “Make F#$&ing Sure Scott Dickenson is Tuning In” shows last week. Not only did he have the always entertaining Danny DeVito there to promote the current funniest show on television (Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia), he also had the prank guys from College Humor come on to debut their latest prank.

For those not in the know, Amir and Streeter at collegehumor.com have been pranking eachother off and on for the past four years. The pranks started off innocently enough but have now escalated into some really amazingly intense pranks that have ended relationships and crushed dreams. For example in Amir’s previous prank he put a marriage proposal on to the JumboTron at Yankee Stadium (From Streeter to Streeter’s girlfriend) without telling Streeter he was going to do it. The result was Streeter trying to claim he had nothing to do with it and his girlfriend slapping him in front of thousands of people and leaving. They are no longer together.

To see the videos of each prank check out the following link, which also has the full video of the prank they debut in the Jimmy Kimmel clip.

Postscript: I really think DeVito might be even more of a mess in real life than his character on Its Always Sunny. It’s pretty clear that he loves drinking more than most people love their mothers, and it is also very strange how close he sits to Amir during the whole video.

Post-PostScript: Kimmel’s promotion failed miserably. I’m not staying up that late to watch narcoleptic Jimmy Kimmel (Not kidding, he actually has narcolepsy) attempt and most often fail to channel 80’s Letterman/70’s Carson.
