April Fool's gags

Forgotten Weapons getting his in as well.


I am just watching this now. I didn't even realise until he said "...not put into production until the mid 2020s". Even then I figured it was just a mistake, and then he started talking about "the resource wars from 2050s to 2077". Bravo :D
 
Some of these technical ones would have got me, but the tomato flavoured toothpaste things were easy.
I got hit by a doozy on April 1st. some twenty odd years ago in Paris, in France an April Fool is known as “Poisson d’Avril”, (April Fish).
Travelling on a metro train approaching Châtelet-Les-Halles, a main interchange in the centre, an announcement came over the train tannoy and the passengers all started sighing and muttering swear words.
My wife said, “What did he say Jean?”
I said, “The driver just said that we all have to get off at the next stop and wait for the next train, he didn’t say why.”
As the train stopped and the passengers began to stream off, the driver’s voice boomed, “POISSON D’AVRIL!” and everyone rushed back on to the train, they thought that it was funny, but they seemed relieved.
