In this video, I had discussed how funny prank videos can become. I did use the eating dog food out of the can prank as an example how a prankster would do something stupid without causing harm to anybody, enough to give us a real decent laugh.
I had focused on the dark side of prank videos, I talked about how some individuals can find it easy to manipulate or trick an individual on the autism spectrum to unexpectedly take part in a prank that results in being humiliated and fall for the most embarrassing trick expecting views, likes and subscribers if this makes it onto YouTube.
I explain this one incident only just before YouTube became a thing in the mid-2000's. In the mid-2000's, "Jackass" was very popular for teenage youths who liked skating. There was a gang of youths in Melbourne, Australia back in 2006 had set up a 14 year old female who was autistic into a prank that resulted her to strip in public, forced to perform explicit acts and was forced to come home naked after her clothes were tossed into the nearby river.
In the process when this girl was being attacked, this was filmed, later burned on to DVD to be sold in school grounds as their own version of "Jackass". It already featured a wide variety of pranks that made at drunken parties the kids had attended to.
Later this was seen by the police, the youths were arrested, taken to justice and by surprise charged for processing child pornography with sexual assault charges also laid.

Please watch my video content if you can to hear what I had to say about how harmful it was to set this poor autistic female up in such humiliating pranks.
