In this edition of Good Mythical Morning, Rhett and Link journey back in time to their youth, when they plotted the worst telephone prank call ever against Rhett’s next-door neighbor Peter. It was not only an act of bravado, but also revenge — as Peter had earlier broken into Rhett’s house, stolen some baseball cards and made brownies, so the boy needed to be taught a lesson.

Rhett and Link share their brush with disaster while off on a camping trip atop a remote mountain. They didn’t bump into a Grizzly bear, a Yeti, a pack of wolves or even alien invaders, but instead had a fateful encounter with a 1992 Ford Bronco that wouldn’t start, owing to a crooked key.

Growing up, my friends and I had a horrible prank we played on tyrants in the neighborhood. We would collect dog poop in a bag, set the bag on the neighbor’s porch, light the bag of crap on fire, ring the doorbell and then run fast as hell, watching behind a tree or a bush as the victim stamped out the fiery pile of stink. Rhett and Link share three of their childhood pranks that were even more outrageous and heinous, although in the same smelly vein as the dog-crap-on-fire care package.
