51. Burying 3 chests with 1 diamond each around your friend's house and leaving a sign that says there are 4 chests buried.

You my, my friend, are evil

I play on pocket

That’s evil

Top 10 weapons too brutal for war

Grian has taught me a valuable lesson: never trust scaffolding

Lol yeah

Iyp

True

Yep

true af

Three years later. HermitCraft needs to take turns doing every single one of these -in order- to Grian. Would be hilarious when he figures out the pattern and tries to find ways to pre-empt it.

Idea: If your friend's base has trapdoors as some sort of pot-decoration, use a redstone timer to occasionally flip the trapdoors. Confusing, non-destructive, funny

I'll be honest, this was one of the first vids from Grian that I ever saw. A few years ago, I was chilling at a friend's place for the night. I showed it to her and we decided to have a prank off. Each of us built a house on our own world, switched our devices, and had 30 minutes to set up as many pranks as we could. Only rules being that there could be no distruction to the houses (so no TNT ones lol). That is one of the best memories I've made playing MC, and I cannot be happier that I stumbled upon this when I did.

What a coincidence, this video is also the first ever video i watched from the channel

@ItsMeJayden it's okay. Wasn't looking for any lol. But thanks for your kind words and the like ☺️💜

Why are there no likes and replies when this is wholesome

This was the first vid I ever watched from Grian, officially huge fan now

Same. He is so chobblesome!

i’m alaska

same

Same

Same

For the pranks with naming stuff, they could use a grindstone to gain some xp from it

I once heard someone say that a good prank is one that takes more effort to set up than it does to clean up. Many of these violate that but some of them are great, like the mysterious gonging noise or the chicken rain.

I remember back when I was younger playing on bedrock edition, we (me and my brother) would create little holes in the sky and spam chickens, then remove the bottom block and watch them fall in a little chicken tornado until they reach the bottom. That sounds similar to the chicken scaffolding one. I also remember doing the same thing on the ground with all sorts of mobs, where you would fill them till you would get knocked back in the corners due to the mass amount of enemies pushing you, and fill it with water to watch them explode out the top.

Grian’s old videos give me nostalgia, this is one for the memory lane.

OMG YES

This video got recommended to me about 2,5 years ago and ever since, I have been watching a lot of your videos. From build school, to hermitcraft and even 3rd life/ last life. I really enjoy your content and when I started watching you, my building skill just got better and better. I normally don't comment on videos but I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate you and your content. Soo thanks a lot g man

even though it’s an old video, I still use some of these to prank my friends, thank you grian!

One of my favorite ones i call the "quartered" I take all the wood from trees (keep the top one to keep the leaves) and replace the empty gaps with planks Making their wood gain 1/4 of what it should be

Ahh... The Smii7y prank.

Seeing Grain being completely evil caught me off guard

Now you can add “remove their doors with absolutely no explanation” and “direct a zombie spawner near the house they’re building” to the list.

@Abigail Gilbert r/woooosh it's hermitcraft dude this is minecraft

I don't get Ya'll. You are all so mean!

I don't ya'll.

@Yugo Dealer, Why are you and @Franchesca Mia Reves Tortoza talking about such a mean topic?

don't forget wardens around their base. right?

6:40 my friend did this to me but thanks to impulse I knew you can water them and they won’t damage blocks but my friend was close enough for the explosion to kill him so that was fun for me

For the "Don’t lose your head"trick, to make it worse,you could put curse of binding on the head ( or pumpkin)

The snow prank can now work in all editions in the new 1.17 update, with powdered snow. First, with a bucket, collect powdered snow from a snowy biome. Make sure you have leather boots so you don’t sink in. Second, make a hole as big and deep as you want and fill it entirely or only the top of it with powdered snow. When your friend walks out of their house, they’ll continue sinking into the snow unless they have leather boots, and even better, if they don’t have a piece of leather armor, they’ll suffer hypothermia and can’t get back up if you fill it entirely.

I remember i did the invisible friend one a while ago to a friend and i think we kept it going for several days before i burst out laughing and told them i could see them the whole time

player: why is my house on fire Grian: new feature :/

@Andee Garcia in wolrd Japan bro just copied the original comment 💀

Player: WHY IS EVERYTHING EXPLODING? Grian: new feature :/

Or more like Player: Why is there obsidian on my chests Grian: new feature :/

@FNAFPlushUltimate You: "sometimes they get randomly deleted and I get confused" Grian: "new feature :/"

@🎃 Cloud Bennett Anthony Ty 🎃 r/wooooosh "You didnt get the joke 😒"

The bamboo one is actually helpful, mobs don't spawn in the bamboo so you just gave them a mob free zone

Grian did a great job! This is one of the most chobblesome videos on YouTube!

Thanks for these pranks!! I’m off to go use some of these. ESPECIALLY the tree spawning one.

OMG... Some of these had me in tears! Seriously, with a friend like you who needs enemies? 🤣🤣🤣

“So how many chicken pranks do you want in this video?” Grian: Yes.

@Acille Villocillo yea ur wrong

Its Grian, check the channel

@Acille Villocillo You are wrong

Ye Grian

Lol

My sister did the last one, and then got used to running backwards. Watching people's reactions when she crouched was great!

I always come back to this video when I'm bored or annoyed just to calm down🙂

The pufferfish seems like the simplest one I can’t wait to try that one 😂

These explosive tricks would be great on a server that has explosions damage buildings off, or on a friend who doesn’t mind their house getting damaged every now and then.

"I've got my friend to put on my skin, and everything is normal." Removed from context this is gold.

Fnaf sister location vibes lol

cursed

Your not wrong.

O

5:42 You can also add a Curse of Binding to it so they cant even remove it without dying

This was the first video I watched by you two years ago and within those two years I watched you all day and you inspired me to play and build more c:

Lol I tried this on my friends and it was hilarious!

A better version of No Sleep for You is to give the zombie an item called "No Sleep for You", as held items also stop mobs from despawning.

My friend did the bamboo one to me, actually made my base look amazing and basically provided me with lots of smelting fuel

@matt Only someone without friends would say that.

@kitkat Oscy no it isn't, a sane person with a nice sister/brother and good parents can live without friends

@matt It really is

@kitkat Oscy no it isn't, if you don't want alot of attention

@Noob slayer New be lonely for the rest of your life

You can use the new powdered snow instead of the scaffolding in “snowed in”

with the snow biome scaffolding, we can use the new powdered snow and we dont need to break it

Me as bedrock player: Yup. Just as I expected Over half of these only work on Java.

This trolls will never be as good as the life steal smp traps, although this is much more simpler and funnier and the chances of it working is 100%.

Grian: *nukes friends house* Also Grian: "Its a new feature."

It’s

just changed it

@Mauro you right

FLUMMI ??

I actually liked all of them they’re all hilarious 🤣

Upgrade for number 15: Completely fill their house (or storage area if it's late-game and you are on a time crunch) with obsidian. It'll turn the "Ugh" into "AAAGGGHHH"

The locked in a box prank can work on both bedrock, pocket, and Java edition, but for bedrock or pocket edition you need 2 block deep water and a swimming glitch for it to work.

For number three, they could just set the forest on fire. So, make sure your friend’s house is made of wood.

Rewatching this again and I remember trying the chicken in the scaffolding one. Watching my friend be confused and knock it down then see dozens and dozens of chickens rain down from the sky was priceless. We laughed for ages

HAHA XD

Lol

That happened to you

Omg

this is something i do to mess with my friends and it drives them crazy. so you have to wait for them to start an animal farm of some sort. (any animal pen surrounded by fence) nothing fancy. then after they get used to it you dig a pit just deep enough for the animals to render when walking overhead then cover up it up with dirt so when they go to check on the animals they can hear them and the fence is still there but all the animals have "dissapeared"

I remember I allowed Command Blocks in one of my public servers, around the time when “instant respawn” was added. It did not take long for someone to abuse that with the “/kill @a” command in survival mode, which soft-locked my game.

This video was so entertaining! I loved watching this

I know one, when your friend is afk, place barrier blocks all around them. They will not be able to move and because barrier blocks are invisible it will take them some time to figure out why they can’t move. Most fun is if you place more layers of blocks, because it will take them even longer to get out.

I love how you can see at 0:12 the comparator is facing the wrong direction. Grian’s redstone is exactly as you’d expect.

i laughed so hard

i saw that and was going ti comment but you beat me to it

Grian is the builder, Mumbo is the redstoner

@TheEpicBeeBoy yeah

@Doge boi be flying i dont like how complex redstone is - i used to wonder why the hell people pointed redstone currents into blocks and stuff

A way you can mess with your friends: if your friend has tamed a wolf and logged off, gain the wolfs trust (if you can with a wolf someone else has tamed) take the wolf, hide it in a special area, and place clues around areas (with a path) to where their wolf is, at the place where you hide the wolf for them to find, leave a chest with a prize (like some diamonds) next to the wolf

52. Spawn killing them. Constantly killing them when they spawn, but drink an invis potion so they don’t know who is doing it. It’s so annoying that no one would forgive you.

"Thank you for watching this video" No grian, we thank you

For the tree and if you want to speed up the process use a lot of bone meal so it will grow faster

Grian: spam saplings around their house. *Laughs in season 8*

@Ironpen Worldbuilding you beat me to it

*Laughs in season 9* .

Laughs hysterically in season 9

*SEASON 9 TOO*

And season nine lol

I have a fun one, If someone is making a village in their base. Put a bunch of barrels, looms to make sure the villager is only those jobs which are not that useful.

I figured out that if you sit in a composter and put a trapdoor over it, then close it on top of you it makes a little safety box

Man, I want to try these on my brothers so badly!!!

I did something similar to Snowed In with the powdered snow block and more as an inconvinience and not a death trap Built an igloo with powder snow as floor, with a rainbow colour chute going down and slime blocks at the bottom so you don't die, but can't get out without elytra. And the roof of the igloo is also powder snow so you don't die flying out

alternate title: "Grian loves scaffolding"

chickies

And blocks

And he loves the man in the chicken costume.

and trains

And Disc 11s

I have a way to mess with a friend: When they are afk, make an magma block tower, then at the top, place an command block to set their spawn point there, then place an pressure plate then attach them with an fishing rod to put them up there

21:10 or u could take it a step further with 1 of these ideas 1.put many carpets above every 1 of them so the lag a lot 2.put tons of scaffolding on top with lava,water or any mobs on top(preferably 1 that doesent take fall damage like cats or chickens).

Disclaimer: the locked in a box trick only works in java editon

"Why is there only bedrock left in this world?" New feature

How to counter these pranks: 1. Don't be AFK in multiplayer. 2. Don't be AFK anywhere. 3. Repeat 1 and 2.

@HayStarr if I had Minecraft, I would do that

4. if that's still too complicated, just throw out your gaming device. no pc. no minecraft. no pranks

Whatever number is this: play minecraft actively, never ever be afk anddddddddddddd have a protective base 💅✨✨✨

@Emberz Nebula 7. Don’t even live

Don't give permission to another person in your plot

There's another one from somewhere, in the old updates, if u drop an anvil on a slab then it will break

For the dispensing armour pranks, I would do full grey leather armour and a carved pumpkin

A good prank now would be to make a massive cave under your friends house so they just keep hearing the ominous cave noises

*THE* oldest trick in the book is placing a TNT at the bottom of a pressure plate at the front of your friend's door.

“To clean this up would take literally hours.” Me with flint and steel

Only you can prevent forest fires.

Me with tnt

create new world BOOM

Amogus YouTube Profile Pic :)

mAkEs sEnsE

Nice seeing Grian rocking the backwards skin in the outro.

14: Snowed In is even better with Caves and Cliffs and Powdered Snow.

5:42 even better, dispense a pumpkin with curse of binding to really drive them insane.

Now if my friends that watch Grian try to prank me I know all their tricks

someone: *goes afk for a minute* grian: *peace was never an option.*

Someone = probably mumbo

Glitch trap?

Shadow Maroon lololo

Lol

Haha boi

I am so happy that my best friend introduced me to your channel!!!

This is the first video I saw from Grian. I’m literally so happy I came past you!!

How to avoid plant power: Step 1: Make a fireproof House Step 2: Set the trees on fire Problem solved

The bamboo one is actually useful, hostile mobs cant get past bamboo (except flying hostile mobs)

Technically if you sleep once every 3 days no mob can get in, unless you're in the nether

Prank idea: Steal all of your friends torches, they'll be absolutely delighted

I have another one: Quit stalling, Joseph.

De-lighted

No

Oh god no

Lol

Wow. 1 million likes and 71 Million views. Very proud of you Grian!

I liked the part where you just released all those chickens from that scaffolding. I just learnt Ode to Joy yesterday and I almost started singing it 😂🤣😅🤣😂🤣😅

I’m just lucky that “rotten food feature” didnt get added in 1.14 Village and Pillage update

how do you avoid killing your friend when pulling them up the scaffolding with the fishing rod? I want to just put them in skyblock, not kill them

Why do I feel like grian would be a terrifying addition to 2b2t

oh man, that would be epic, but we all know what happens to youtubers there

@Tekayo yup

Honestly if he used an alt to not get recognized, he would get clapped hard. If he wasn't, he would probably still die a lot

@Tekayo wOw

Because he would be. He'd probably team up with Team Veteran to be their defense.

I tried these on a hardcore smp…I’m banned now Thanks for the tips!

5:08 in bedrock you can actually put uppercase letters so basically it would be like a brand new item but in Java it does not work

I think we all should never go afk like my friend who I failed to trap 10 times

Idea: if your friend is AFK for a long time move them somewhere that’s it’s completely different from their location

Grian: How do I make more pranks? Scaffolding: Allow us to introduce ourselves

I just made a comment not a "who wants to join this debate about kindness in a YouTube Minecraft comment section?" Obviously you guys

@DIAMOND SôS OKAY DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING AGAINST PEOPLE WHO STILL CARE ABOUT BEING NICE OR DO YOU JUST HAVE A PROBLEM WITH ME IN GENERAL? THIS GENERATION IS SO RUDE IT'S SAD

@Kati Rufus he didn't even say thanks, you might as well be saying you're welcome for dust

@DIAMOND SôS that was unnecessary

I keep imagining Grian doing the plant power one on Hermitcraft

Number 6 but improved would be "I meant the nether" "I meant the End" "I meant the nether roof" "I meant the overworld" "I meant the nether" etc.

7:05 push it with a piston and punch the crystal while putting a block right next to you

The 5th one is now why I'm NOT using ANY wood in my house in my SMP.

Freind: *Complains about literally any of these pranks* Grian: It’s a new feature in 1.14.

1. Out 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for your help help and

1. 1

this guy took the traps to the next level

Literally anyone: Can you do this one particular job for me?" Grian: "What?" The guy: "Prank-" Grian: " *Yes* "

I actually used to do #40 except the entrance is behind a far away tree and tunnels under their house so they can't notice like I hid under my friends base for 1 week before they noticed

A long time ago, I used to mess with someone by turning invisible and following one of my friends with my 20 dogs. It was fun to see him running away telling me to get my dogs, then when he actually hit them, they would all attack and kill him.

Friend: AFK Grian: So you have chosen death.

*TRIPPY*

@Trashed Eggnog Mumbo Jumbo you are afk...

Ha ha ha haha haha haha
