Creepy Eyes Prank

Make some creepy eyes to put on an unsuspecting sleeping person.

. . . Also great for wearing yourself, so you can sleep virtually undetected during meetings, church services, boring dates, job interviews, funerals, weddings, and so forth.

This is an easy, quick project. If you make some creepy eyes for yourself, take a photo and post it in the comments. I'll give you an awesome patch!

Step 1 Get some cheap ping pong balls

You will need some cheap ping pong balls, preferably ones without any markings or writing on them.

I used one ping pong ball to create each eyeball.

You can see in the second photo that the completed half-balls have a little lip left over from where the opposite half was glued in. This overlapping seam serves as a guide to help you while cutting the ball in half, and also keeps the completed half-balls rigid.

While my friend was asleep, I drugged him and ripped out his eyeballs and replaced them with these! He was SO mad. It was HILARIOUS. He got me back good though, hired the mafia to castrate me. So i killed his family, the look on his face was HILARIOUS.

I can get into SOOOO much trouble with this!
Can't wait! YEEEEHAAAAA!!!!

[Mig Welder]

Nice sunglasses tan! I thought it was a strap to attach the eyeballs at first!!

[seamster]

Ha ha, thanks. You're not the first to point that out!

[mbridges3]

ha, i said 3-d animation ... let me call that anatomy, sorry

[mbridges3]

easily could be perfected with minimal tools and materials... if any of you know 3-d animation, you will understand easily

[mbridges3]

coat them with 'shine' (non-toxic), make the edges 'soft', and only paint the iris and pupil....then put them under my eyelids

[helpwantedfilms]

add some stick on eyelashes for extra detail too

[cblair1]

The addition of the eyelashes, convinced me I needed a pair!

[mslaynie]

That would be fantastic!!

[cblair1]

I have never laughed so hard in all my life!!! What a good old fashioned fun project!

"Examine your ping pong balls to see which half is glued into the other half. This is the half you want to cut off."

Isn't *each* half glued to the other half? I'm not clear on what you mean here.

[mothman0]

I think he means that you want to cut off the half that is glued to the inside of the other half... ie. the "male" half, leaving the "female" half intact.

[facegarden]

ohh... I see. I read "into" as "to".

[seamster]

Yes, that's exactly what I meant. Thanks!

When I was in college more than 50 years ago I put holes for pupils and added bloodshot veins around the irises. I could walk around campus wearing my glasses as usual and see where I was going while freaking out my friends.

[jbicb3]

I did the same thing, but in High School. I remember one shopping trip in Sears with my mother and a friend. I would hide inside a rack of clothes and wait for some unsuspecting shopper to move the clothing aside. :) Ahhh, the good old days. For some reason, my mom remembers this also. 30+ years later.

[pineypl]

Brilliant! I totally love it. I will be making a walking around set soon.

[seamster]

That's a good idea. I'll have to make a set for walking around in, as you did. Thanks!

[Guilherme Cardassi]

Boa idéia !!

[Brainfade]

hahaha, this bit made Me laugh!,.... . Also great for wearing yourself, so you can sleep virtually undetected during meetings,...
Thats funny, thanks for that,

[cyberpigue]

What's so creepy - he looks just like Rick from Pawn Stars! Okay, maybe it is creepy...

[bajablue]

LOL... you're right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LuzminasCorner]

hahahaha this is a great project to get a good laugh!... I will try it! ;D

[amoore12]

You can scrape the writings/markings off a ping pong ball with a little patience and an X-acto knife.

[Treknology]

That's what happens when you've had too much coffee!

[angelabchua]

i lollered when i read " . . Also great for wearing yourself, so you can sleep virtually undetected during meetings, church services, boring dates, job interviews, funerals, weddings, and so forth."

[jwellz]

I like the 'sunglasses tan line' on the chap in the photo, I thought the eyes were on a pair of glasses to start with :D

[seamster]

Yep, that guy works outside a lot . . . hence the goofy tan line.

(Also, check out the double chin--I can't tell where is head ends and his neck begins!)

[rhondalicious]

Also, same concept works really well for costumes from The Simpsons!

[seamster]

Good idea! Thanks!

[alcurb]

Fun project. Thanks.
.
Add a little glossy clear-coating to the white and iris parts, masking out the eyelids, and the eyes would look even more realistic. The white dot wouldn't be necessary.
.
Did you draw the iris circle with pencil before applying the paint? I don't know if I can paint the iris so perfectly. Howdjadoit?

[seamster]

I was going to add a clear coat, but at the time I was all out of everything that would've worked. So hence, no glossy look.

Although it might have helped, I didn't draw any of the details with pencil prior to painting. I just . . . eye-balled it.

April Fool's Day is too far off. :(

[playfulplans]

Hilarious. The guy looks like he just finished watching his latest stock reports...

[mcamachoz]

Coool !
