April Fool’s Day 2025 is surely turning out to be one to remember with people, companies, and even the government getting involved. Here is a compilation of some of the most side-splitting pranks pulled off this year.
Never have premium users been so pranked on April Fool’s Day 2025 as they were this year by pranking tech corporations. This time around, Google offered a new ‘feature,’ which was “Google Nose 2.0,” where users could search the web using their noses. Thousands of users attempted to sniff their devices only to realize that they were the butt of a joke.
On the other hand, Tesla showcased their latest “development” of a self-driving pogo stick. CEO Elon Musk even teased a demo video, and boy was it well edited; fans loved it.
Fast Food Restaurants Serve Up Ridiculous Menus
Many fast-food outlets like McDonald’s and KFC also joined in on the fun during April Fool’s Day 2025 by introducing mock menu items. KFC taunted customers with a new twist on “Fried Water,” while McDonald’s UK added an equally ridiculous dish, the “McPickle Burger,” which is simply a stack of pickles. Customers took to social media expressing their amazement, only to later discover it was all a hoax.
Government Joins the Fun : April Fools Day 2025
Even national governments decided to partake in mischief towards their citizens as the city of London issued a public announcement stating that all double-decker buses will be replaced by environmentally friendly double-decker bicycles. The statement was written so perfectly that quite a few Londoners bought into the ruse before realizing it was, in fact, a prank.
Celebrities in the Spotlight
Hollywood mascots also took a look into the happenings of April Fool’s Day 2025. Ryan Reynolds, an actor with a comical side, put out a joke that he would act in a Shrek live-action movie as an ogre. Some fans did realize it was a prank, but only after some started a petition for it to actually come out!
Social Media Havoc
The world of social media was on fire with all kinds of prank tweets. The Gram announced the Invisible Selfie mode of the app, where a person could view their picture only if they squinted. TikTokers believed a new voice-swapping feature would allow them to impersonate celebs, only to hear a garbled voice instead.
