Prank @ LUMS on 1st April
MIT hackers pull the coolest hacks & pranks which fascinate people
all over globe.This year on 1st April we (2's complement: i.e. Adil,
Yaser & me) came up with some ideas and teamed with others at NEWT
Lab to pull a small prank at LUMS.At around 4:00 AM in the morning of
April 1st we filled the office of Dr. Umar Saif with over 150
balloons. The office has just walls on three sides and a non-opening
glass window and a door on the front side. The great part is that the
whole prank was carried out without opening his room. How did we do
that? That's an interesting story!Before I tell you the trick of the
trade I must mention that in a bid to pull a prank on Dr. Umar, he
unintentionally made us april fools by telling us that he'll be coming
to LUMS and did not come :P We kept waiting for him and he came the next
day, i.e. 2nd April. Thats why they say "o tuaday v ustaad nay!".
However the balloons were still inflated and he along with everyone else
enjoyed a lot.Here's what we did:We took over 200 balloons, some strings
and a few empty plastic bottles of soft drinks. Small holes were made in
the bottoms of the bottles. A balloon was inflated by placing it on the
bottle's opening and blowing in the hole. But how was infalted balloon
thrown in tightly shut room? It wasn't. First, the balloon was tightly
fitted on the bottle's mouth, then slid underneath the door opening,
which was about 4 mm wide and was then inflated pushed in. The videos
and photos depict what we
did.
Who says Nerds have no life! Nerds have the most creative minds and come
up with most interesting ideas. That's why they are Nerds. For instance
