It's Just a Prank!

Pranks can be funny—until they’re not. Most of us know the line between harmless fun and dangerous behavior, but that line can blur pretty quickly. Especially in the world of cartoons, where smoke under a door can be a setup for a punchline rather than a cause for alarm.

Still, there’s a lesson buried in the comedy here. If you’re going to fake a fire, at least pretend to follow basic safety rules. The poor guy forgot to check the door’s temperature before bursting through it—something that’s fire safety 101. Now he’s not just embarrassed, but probably explaining everything to HR. Next time, stick to whoopee cushions.
