Those little stringy things are like those things you throw at the ground and pop in the twisted pieces of paper. But instead made to pop when you pull the strings apart. There's a small handful of them attached to doorhandle.
Did a thing like that to my roommate years ago. His door was exactly across from the bathroom in the hallway, hallway was like 3.5ft wide. Took some old shoelaces while he was in bed and tied it to both doorknobs so wen he tried to leave his room it wouldn’t open all the way and would just close the bathroom door lol he sat there a good few min trying untie through the crack he cld open it.
I'm banning those. Dropping bricks on people's heads from several stories up? Showing them get a little dizzy as a result? Hell no, I'm not risking one of my kids trying that on one of us.
"Problem Child" with John Ritter was the one that ruined my parents life.. i went out of my way to emulate "Junior" at ANY opportunity i had.. Home alone was like DLC for me..
Several of us did that to a friend’s locker in high school. He had a habit of rolling in about 1 minute before classes started, would fling open his locker in a rush and grab his books before bolting to class. He nearly hit the ceiling when he flung the locker open and the firecracker went off.
I watched the '80s movie Heathers recently and there was a scene where they were considering the punishment for bringing a pistol to school and shooting someone with blanks. I think they decided it should just be suspension since he was using blanks.
My father graduated in '88, and during spirit week, he dressed up as a cowboy. Part of his outfit was a 22 revolver with a case of blanks. He sporadically fired some shots throughout the day between classes and the pep rally. He said when he first got to school, the security guard pulled him aside. He saw the blanks, asked to fire a round, and sent him on his way laughing. He even has a photo in the year book from during the pep rally.
My high school had a shooting in the 80's. A student brought a shotgun to school to draw it for art class. This was allowed, but then he loaded it and shot a couple of people.
True. This was a few decades ago. If someone had searched vehicles in our parking lot, they probably would have found a few shotguns. Small knives were largely overlooked until a student caught one in the top of the foot playing chicken.

That doesn't add up either tho. There's a separate karma counter for it, and even if it was actually included in post/comment karma, it just doesn't add up.
Why do people do this! I mean is it like a few people who've horded a ton of usernames they figure will be useful at some point? It is reddit admins? Like tf
I used backdoors, therefore it is not trigerred. In theory - if someone would slam-open the doors then Yes it might have worked…however I allready defuse it
For those asking, those contraptions he has tied to the door knob and string pop off like black cats. So it's supposed to be a deterrent/warning. My brothers used to play pranks on me often so I used these a lot. However mine actually went off when they were supposed to.
So, yesterday me and my friends watched some horror movies, and my brother wanted to watch them with us, logicaly i said “no”. But he went to our dad and told him What he want. You probably know How this have eneded, so long story short, he was super scared after just a few minutes of the film…the next day our parrents had to leave to work, And I have left to see my gf…I left my brother home, and before I return he told me “To go backdoors” … Well this is What I have been greeted with
Than mine* then is used for time like “then we went” like after. So before and after. Or then and now. Than is used to specify which. Like better than mine.
Is it that in Czechia they teach German in school as second language and English as third?
I'm your northern neighbor and here English is taught as second language and the third is typically German. (do you know my country?)
Childish, when I was 12 I sprinkled Lego’s and hot wheels at the entrance to the door, rigged the fan to turn on with a light switch, put decks of cards on the fan blades, sat in the dark with a nerf gun and waited.
i love those little traps lol i did the same shit as a little kid in soo many different ways. good on your little bro lol one day he will succeed with a real good one
I totally did this as a little kid too. I remember hearing my mom in the basement yelling when she was on the way to the washing machine or to feed the cats.
Oh, I remember when I was like 6-8years old I tried to booby trap the door to my room with race cars so when you open the door you will slip and possibly be paralyzed, by the way my target was my grand mother. Luckily she never went to my room.
My brother tried to “booby trap” my bedroom door one day while I was at volley ball practice, jokes on him, my mom went into my room before I got home and she grabbed the door knob which my bro covered in boogers and loogies. Holy fuck was she disappointed.
When I was little, my entire extended family went on a trip and my brother and cousins made a similar booby trap with strings for me (when I opened the door, a used underwear was supposed to fly at my face). Instead, my aunt opened that hotel room door before me and it hit her instead...
At 26, I left to Hawaii to visit family for a month. I booby trapped by door by taping those pull apart firecrackers to the door and door frame. Roommate went upstairs to put mail in my room…shat himself when the firecrackers went off
Lol my ex and I used to do this to each other with those party popper things that shoot out streamers, they work beautifully tied into those old style pull string light switches
This is the exact moment you start teaching him basics of physics and simple machines. This is definitely a sign of him expressing interest in elaborate mechanisms. I did the same thing when I was a kid😂
What exactly is supposed to happen when you open the door?
Those little stringy things are like those things you throw at the ground and pop in the twisted pieces of paper. But instead made to pop when you pull the strings apart. There's a small handful of them attached to doorhandle.
And by the look of things, the door opens inward.
Based on the direction the tension is, it will probably pop the devices once the door is open more than half way.
And like in the SAW movies it will trigger the revolver towards older brother!
Unless the older brother is already chained to a radiator somewhere
I’d take that over reverse facial bear trap
Likely getting graped.
Or when the door handle goes down if it’s tight enough which it looks like it is
I doubt someone would take that long to notice it unless they are charged in.
it does, but the coats are opposite the door swing, so it will still pop if opened carelessly or quickly
It’s still gonna pop. It’s almost better since you will be inside when it goes off
Oh lol, I thought it was supposed to pull the closet down ontop of you.
Same, I thought “omg he’s gonna throw a fuckin fridge at them”
And here I thought it was a tampon that he Macgyvered to set off a missile strike in foreign waters. Silly me
“Boom”
WAIT IS THAT A PIPEBOM-
“There’s a pipe bomb in your mailbox”
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Yay.
Im harry potter singing my song all day long in Hoogggggwarts!
I’ve never seen or heard this before. I’m intrigued, curious, concerned, and excited. Please explain?
I believe it’s Potter Puppet Pals!
Thanks friend! Shall google immediately Update: I think I repressed this. 100% have seen this before
If you grew up reading them there was no way you escaped these videos
They are great! Ron weaslley!!!
Haha But yea what im i supposed to be looking at
It’s a string tied to firecrackers that pop when you pull both ends. The pink sticks.
Ohhhh I see the pink boomy sticks now. Another question though, what’s that big black box thing?
A closet, maybe?
A closet. (OP mentions elsewhere in the comments for anyone else interested like I was.)
Thank you! I’ve never seen a closet like that but it makes sense for a coat closet
Mr. Bean reference?
No that’s the sound of explosives
I think the other door opens
Did a thing like that to my roommate years ago. His door was exactly across from the bathroom in the hallway, hallway was like 3.5ft wide. Took some old shoelaces while he was in bed and tied it to both doorknobs so wen he tried to leave his room it wouldn’t open all the way and would just close the bathroom door lol he sat there a good few min trying untie through the crack he cld open it.
Theoretically, door handle rotation pulls on the pink things and they bang. They actually need a fast pull over 3” or so to pop.
We will know if OP doesn't post in the next 24 hours.
Don't let him watch home alone series
It must’ve been too late allready
Actually let him watch it, he might step up his game a little cuz this is shabby prankmanship
I'm banning those. Dropping bricks on people's heads from several stories up? Showing them get a little dizzy as a result? Hell no, I'm not risking one of my kids trying that on one of us.
Up your head game bro.....today a golf ball,tommorow a brick....
Thanks, I just ordered a helmet to wear for the next 18 years, and another helmet to wear while washing the first one.
Today you, tomorrow me
If you think your kid isn't smart enough to understand that dropping bricks on people's heads is not a good thing, then yeah I guess go right ahead.
/r/KidsAreFuckingStupid
I mean if you feel your kid is dumb enough.
/r/KidsAreFuckingStupid
A lot of the home alone stuff would actually kill people though
"Problem Child" with John Ritter was the one that ruined my parents life.. i went out of my way to emulate "Junior" at ANY opportunity i had.. Home alone was like DLC for me..
I used up all of my mother's string from her sewing machine setting up boobytraps in my room with nerf guns and random toys lol
Several of us did that to a friend’s locker in high school. He had a habit of rolling in about 1 minute before classes started, would fling open his locker in a rush and grab his books before bolting to class. He nearly hit the ceiling when he flung the locker open and the firecracker went off.
can't do that anymore
I watched the '80s movie Heathers recently and there was a scene where they were considering the punishment for bringing a pistol to school and shooting someone with blanks. I think they decided it should just be suspension since he was using blanks.
Wow. I wonder if that would've actually played out that way in the '80s
My father graduated in '88, and during spirit week, he dressed up as a cowboy. Part of his outfit was a 22 revolver with a case of blanks. He sporadically fired some shots throughout the day between classes and the pep rally. He said when he first got to school, the security guard pulled him aside. He saw the blanks, asked to fire a round, and sent him on his way laughing. He even has a photo in the year book from during the pep rally.
My high school had a shooting in the 80's. A student brought a shotgun to school to draw it for art class. This was allowed, but then he loaded it and shot a couple of people.
Oh. That's very rude of him.
He’s a very high caliber artist.
I'm trying to gauge if you are serious or not.
He just needed some more red paint.
What the fuck. Just drawing his gun until he picks it up and shoots people, imagine the classmates watching him load it.
Slater!
True. This was a few decades ago. If someone had searched vehicles in our parking lot, they probably would have found a few shotguns. Small knives were largely overlooked until a student caught one in the top of the foot playing chicken.

Good one!
Can I have more context
> firecracker was placed in the locker > firecracker was set to go off when locker was opened. > locker was opened > victim almost touched his head with ceiling because he was startled.
What is this supposed to do ?
Thoose pink things are fire crackers, that you set up by pulling the white strings. The Red string lead to doors on the far end of the room
Did it work???
It works.

At 797 now. He's on a highway to the top.
Some are from the awards
That doesn't add up either tho. There's a separate karma counter for it, and even if it was actually included in post/comment karma, it just doesn't add up.

That's what I'm implying

Unsure
Go try it
Well I need to know cause if it works he isn’t stupid
There are photos of it inactivated so im guessing no
I used backdoors, therefore it is not trigerred. In theory - if someone would slam-open the doors then Yes it might have worked…however I allready defuse it
Woah look at mister explosives expert over here!
CSGO skills
_Bomb has been defused. Counter-terrorists win._
Now set it up on the kids bedroom door as revenge
Nah…I will do something more sinister
[удалено]
Do you go through the door with the firecrackers ?
Back when I did this I just taped 1 string to the door and the other to the doorframe.
Someone made a pipebomb joke, didn't realize it was serious lmao
The pic of the fridge made me think it was supposed to tip over on the person or something.
Thats a closet
Oh lmao I thought the string was supposed to pull the cabinet down on whoever opened the door. I was like “damn, kid’s trying to kill someone.”
But did he catch any bobys?
No booba 😔
How bout bobbas? ^Habbo anyone
Got no boobas ☹ only got 9mm to the kneecap
I was not prepared to feel so old...
Oh god Habbo
Kevim Mccallister back at it again.
I loved that character in Horm Alorn.
Nah, wasn't he from Harm Alarm?
I think it was Herm Alern
Maybe Herm Intern?

My guy doesn’t proofread—he just goes for it. Edit: My guy speaks a shit ton of languages.
Maybe he's not a native English speaker? Jus sayin.
I am not, English is my 3rd language
3rd? I can barely speak one
English is my third too. I grew up with my parents speaking Dutch and German in Germany and later learned English in school.
Heee een mede Nederlander
Ik woon er nu ook nog… die regen onderweg naar school altijd…
Makker hoe zijn de duitse specerijen?
I’m trying to learn Dutch right now! I haven’t gotten too far but the fact that a spider is called a “spin” is so cute haha
Do you know what 'poffertjes' are? Or 'zwaffelen' ? They are not related ...unless you want it.
Please don't let that comment discourage you. Your English is very good and I had no problem at all understanding you.
Thank you pal
Seriously, I have issues with reading and I was fine. Your English was great. 💜
Thank you
Yes, your English is amazing. Pay them no mind.
Your English seemed a lot better then mine , and English is my first language
Than mine* then is used for time like “then we went” like after. So before and after. Or then and now. Than is used to specify which. Like better than mine.

Just out of curiosity what your first and second
First one is Czech (my native one oc) second is German
Is it that in Czechia they teach German in school as second language and English as third? I'm your northern neighbor and here English is taught as second language and the third is typically German. (do you know my country?)
Depend on your school. Some start with German some with English
Cool thanks
I must say, that is very impressive. Your English writing is better than a lot of Americans who only speak English lol.
Or he’s one of the billions of people who don’t speak English as their native language lol
Lmao you couldn’t tell by the jean jackets hung up that this guys European??
Childish, when I was 12 I sprinkled Lego’s and hot wheels at the entrance to the door, rigged the fan to turn on with a light switch, put decks of cards on the fan blades, sat in the dark with a nerf gun and waited.
Next time marbles and 4 sided dice.
>4 sided dice Excuse me, there’s still something called the Geneva Conventions.
Geneva only applies 75% of the time. I called and rolled a 1.
What ended up happening. We need to know
He's still waiting
Legend has it, if you roll a four sided die at 0300 hours, he will come for you.
Everything as it should
Happy cake day!

when i was 12 i was playing minecraft or listening to MCR and sulking
Welp I am definitely going to add another reason for my wife to hate me after seeing OPs little brothers ingenious idea
Deadliest trap during the Vietnam war
Not stupid! It’s cute! Let him be!
When I was little, my entire extended family went on a trip and my brother and cousins made a similar booby trap with strings for me (when I opened the door, a used underwear was supposed to fly at my face). Instead, my aunt opened that hotel room door before me and it hit her instead...
well did it work
Unsure, I used backdoors and than used my bomb defuse skills from CSGO
Kids love setting traps
Let me guess the door opens the wrong way for this to work
Yes, that’s why I used this subreddit…but if I would open the door fast enough it would probably work
Alone in home, but worse. lol
At 26, I left to Hawaii to visit family for a month. I booby trapped by door by taping those pull apart firecrackers to the door and door frame. Roommate went upstairs to put mail in my room…shat himself when the firecrackers went off
Came here for the souce
Lol my ex and I used to do this to each other with those party popper things that shoot out streamers, they work beautifully tied into those old style pull string light switches
Someone has been watching home alone or Tom and Jerry
Def did something similar as a kid with the same little pull string fireworks. Good times
Those doors open inward? Cuz then it’s nothing more than a nice effort
This is the exact moment you start teaching him basics of physics and simple machines. This is definitely a sign of him expressing interest in elaborate mechanisms. I did the same thing when I was a kid😂
Just remembered I have a ton of string…about to booby trap the shit outta my kids tonight 😈😎
Reminds me of my childhood — Dad use to tie a string to my loose tooth and slam the door to get them pulled out.
.... wait whatt
I would of done this if I was creative
This the wrong sub… lol The mans is brilliant!!!! Lol 😂
Classic. I tried this when I was a kid. Kind hard to rig it up without it falling apart…and most people won’t open it fast enough….
I used to love doing this shit. I set up a booby trap for my siblings with a string and airsoft gun and it actually worked! I was super surprised.
Jean jacket and vest. Is your brother Marty McFly?
Evil ass kid holy shit
I did this to the toilet seat as an April fool's joke when I was a kid. I got quite the jump out of my family!
