Of course all this is done just for fun. when the trick is played people say “April Fool” to make the poor person realize that it was just a joke.

Some of the well known and most successful pranks or practical jokes were on the media – television, radio stations, newspapers… For instance, a BBC television program ran a famous hoax in 1957, showing Italians harvesting spaghetti from trees. A large number of people contacted the BBC wanting to know how to cultivate spaghetti trees. In 2008, the BBC again reported on a newly discovered colony of flying penguins showing people walking with the penguins in Antarctica, and following their flight to the Amazon rainforest.
