    I did one before where I found a name and address in the phone book, it was something like John Smith, 18 whatever street it was, so when he picked up I said as fast as I could "Hi John it's me next door in number 19, this is embarrassing, but I'm dying to go to the toilet and I've no toilet roll, could you drop some in quick please" and he quickly said "yeah I'll be in now" and I said "great thanks bye" and that was it. Can just imagine him calling next door with toilet roll in his hand and the awkward situation that followed :D

    Rang up one of the top hotels in Dublin asking about their most expensive room (something like 3K a night) with a New York gangster type accent on saying my boss needs it for 2 months for some business he needs to take care of in Dublin and there'd be people coming and going and could be up to 30 people in his room at once and it'd need to be private and all this. The bill was coming to around €180,000 for 2 months and I said my boss never likes to pay full price for anything and I think they ended up knocking about 20K off the price :)

    Rang up a hotel once off a private number saying I didn't use the hotel phone because I don't want them to know what room I'm in and that I'm looking for the number for an escort, they wouldn't give me "that kind of number" and I went on asking why not? That in my country it's no problem and some hotels even provide such a service. I asked is there a number I could ring to find a number and they gave me 11811, so I spent ages asking what was the number for 11811 while I was at it :D Finally got the number for 11811 and said thanks. 5 mins later I rang back reception with the same accent and said that there will be a lady coming in 1 hour, and please let her up to the 2nd floor and I'll meet her there, told them what she'd be wearing but they refused to let her in and I kept going on at them asking why not and eventually the call ended. 5 mins later I rang back saying I was really sick and my doctor needs to come to my room and told them what she'd be wearing (same as I said last time :P) and I think they agreed to let her up :D

    Rang up another hotel before and asked in a really shy voice "hi are you the same girl that was just at reception 5 minutes ago" and if she said yeah I'd say, I just wanted to say you look really nice and I really liked you since the day I checked in and wrote a song for you, so I continued to get the guitar and play a really crappy song for about 10 seconds and say that's all I've written so far and then get all shy on the phone and hang up.

    This was a really bad one now and if it was you, I'm terribly sorry, but I was young and foolish at the time :o Anyway I copied this off one I heard before, got another name and address from the phonebook and rang up saying Hi this is the driver from Four Star Pizza, I'm in "X estate" now and asking which house are you? Queue confusion over nobody ordering a pizza, but then they asked who ordered it, and I said the name in the phonebook and then they went silent and said "that's my wifes mother, she died 3 years ago" :eek: Needless to say I felt really bad and just said oh that's strange and not to worry about it.

    I've rang a few random numbers before and just asked "Hi have you got the time please", some would start getting mad, some would just say it and I'd just say "thanks a lot, bye" :)

    I've never done any like ordering a huge takeaway to some random house as I don't really agree with them ones.

    I love the accent in the phone zone one..."I won't be he-uh!"

    The David Beckham dinosaur one was great, too. Here's a hilarious one, but it's not a prank.

    I havent made prank calls since I was a kid but there is a great radio show in the US that has quality prank calls. There is one really funny one about an Irish guy who's name cant be put on the childs birth cert as he's not married to the mother. Man the abuse he gave the dude on the phone was crazy !

    Mick Mulcahy on 98FM in Cork from a few years back used to do classic ones. Don't know if you'd find them online or anything now though.

    The best prank phone call i've ever been a part of, was using a Arny schwartzeneger sound boards to ring a friends older brother. The brother was about 22 at the time, can't believe he fell for it really. Classic lines like "who is your daddy, and what does he do?", "WHO TOLD YOU YOU COULD EAT MY COOKIES!!!!", that conversation went on for like 8 minutes, brilliant!

    Schwartzneggar once phoned a radio station and entered a Schwartzneggar soundalike competition. He didn't win.

    A fellah kept trying to prank me when I was younger. I found out who he was and got his home number, at this stage, he was just resorting to pure abuse... And some pretty nasty abuse at that...

    I set up a divert on my phone to his house number. Mother picked up the phone and before she could answer, he started into his tirade of abuse.

    Heh, he got in some sh*tload of trouble :D

    For me Steve Penk was one of the best prank callers EVER. He done loads of prank calls during his time at Capital radio. Listen to them all on youtube:

    My favourite is this one:

    The best prank call
    Im sure most people have heard it, especially since its the number 1 when you search "prank call".
    Tom Mabe - telemarketer

    My favorite Irish one is this one, Some young fella rings up a bare knuckle boxer/traveller looking for a fight - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mJO2fq-Tzw&feature=related

    Another note worthy prank was one told by Billy Connolly on stage. Brilliant story and it floors me everytime - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-q8hxXvpOLw

    Where was the landlord from? I couldn't understand a thing he was saying, or that Billy Connolly character either. :(
