A 'Fake Egg' Prank Targeting Kids Is Trending On TikTok—But Not Everyone Thinks It's Funny
When seeing the crumbled pieces of the "fake egg," most kids have looked on in amazement. Taking advantage of their excitement, the person performing the prank will then offer them a "fake egg" of their own.
But the important difference is that, instead of telling the kid to crush the egg in their hand like they just did, they'll tell the kid to go to one of their parents and perform the trick for their parent by throwing the "fake egg" on the ground, promising that there will be little pieces of shell left on the floor, and their parent will be amazed!
However, the egg that the kid receives is not a "fake egg" or a drained egg at all; it's a regular egg that, when thrown to the floor, splatters with eggshell and yolk all over.
In one viral example, an older brother tricks his younger sister by telling her to go into their mother's bedroom to throw the egg on the floor.
Fortunately, the shocked little girl immediately told their mother the truth, and clearly having witnessed a prank or some shenanigans before, the mother believed her and told the older brother to clean it up.

In a compilation video of the "fake egg" prank, kids' reactions ranged from laughing in shock, being angry with their siblings for setting them up, and sobbing uncontrollably after finding themselves in trouble.

Like other trending TikTok pranks, this trend prompted fellow TikTokers to question whether or not pranks like this are funny—but in this particular case, they're concerned about the potential trust issues this could cause.

We've all heard the advice to "not cry over spilled milk," and "to make an omelette, you have to break a couple of eggs."
But clearly, if you want to create trust issues in children, it might only take one broken egg for them, as well.
