CollegeHumor knows the art of the prank. The online destination (and soon to be major motion picture studio) for individuals craving online video comedy is responsible for the most entertaining tricks of an amusing, playful, and sometimes malicious nature found on any type of entertainment medium.

The studio conveniently included a full cast list.
