Watch The First Prank Ever Recorded On Camera

This short, grainy clip shows what’s widely considered the world’s first recorded prank, filmed in 1895 in the silent film L\'Arroseur arrosé. A man calmly waters his garden when a mischievous prankster steps on the hose, cutting off the flow—only to lift his foot at the exact moment the farmer peers inside, blasting him in the face with water and sending early audiences into laughter over a gag that still works more than a century later.
