"Last Day Pranks"

I was watching Brainiac: Science Abuse the other day when I came up with a great prank for the last day of sixth form. I'll have two years to prepare it, and it should be great. While watching Brainiac, they talked about 'Brown Noise', a sound which should make the listener "empty their bowels". They tried it on this guy in the loo... and it worked too well. Bucketfulls, let's leave it at that.

So I thought, if one day I got someone to climb up to the speaker control in the hall, with about two hundred people eating their lunch, put in a CD with Brown Noise on it, and played it over the gigantic speakers, you can imagine the chaos it could cause.

Anyone else had/got ideas? Or a story to tell?

That can't be true surely? A quick Google search fro brown noise brings back a lot of brown noise information, but nothing which mentions the noise causing people to deficate on themselves...

Indeed, it appears it relates to Brownian motion, which, from what I can gather, is the displacement of a particle which causes Brown Noise... I think. There's just something special about the frequency/waveform and energy distribution that I can't quite grasp, which means that the amplitude decreases by 6db every octave or something, and no matter how far you zoom in on the waveform it always has the same "texture".

So, no crapping for you :-)

Aye, looks to be lies..

Bucketfuls eh? Funny, the show I saw had titch peek into the cubicle and feign a shocked "he's crapped everywhere" face. No evidence at all, especially any buckets full of arsemousse.

If ever a word deserved to make it's way into the everyday vocab...

You could say it's anal delight...

lol.

Any other ideas? We'll need some good ones to top this year. The physics corridor was pink by the end of the day. Plus, there were some mummified Year 8s...

Can't you just organise a mass suicide?

Please?
