>Prank carries a connotation that the act should not expose the target to actual danger. Says who? Examples of irresponsible and dangerous pranks abound. More to the point, the intent is still to have a laugh at someone's expense which fits the dictionary definition of "prank" quite well: a practical joke or mischievous act. In anticipation of the nitpicking over the term "mischief", I submit the google definition thereof: harm or trouble caused by someone or something. Sorry, but the fact that calling this a prank should get people so upset is really, really bizarre.
