We all have those friends whom we can refer to as the consummate prankster. These are the friends that are always looking for a way to get a laugh at the expense of others and, although it is always done with the best intentions and, for the most part, without malicious intent, sometimes they can get carried away.
Well, what do you suppose would happen if the prankster happened to be someone trained in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and chooses to use her skill set within the realm of this pranks and jokes?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is martial art combat system that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was formed from Kodokan judo ground fighting fundamentals that were taught by a number of individuals including Takeo Yano, Mitsuyo Maeda, and Soshihiro Satake.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu eventually came to be its own art through the experiments, practices, and adaptation of Judo through Carlos and Helio Gracie as well as other instructors and years later is still being utilized by nearly every mixed martial artist on every level.
Jiu-Jitsu was originally designed as a form of self-defense in life or death situations and although a sport aspect has been developed, self-defense is still at its heart.
You can imagine the dangers of your resident prankster using an art originally designed for self-defense in a prank. Needless to say, things could get pretty dangerous pretty quickly.

In the video below, we have a female as our resident prankster who also happens to have a little bit of Jiu-Jitsu training. It is safe to say that although hilarity ensues, proper discretion and etiquette was definitely not on display.
Check out the video below to see how this plays out!
