In a viral Imgur video titled "Bro needed a safe word," magician and creator Justin Flom takes home pranking to a whole new level. The video begins with an unsuspecting friend questioning a curious object in the bathroom. Flom, always ready with a surprise, gladly obliges to reveal the secret.

The friend is guided to a picture hanging on the wall. Flom points out the hinges and prompts him to open it, revealing a hidden safe. As the friend nervously follows instructions to unlock the safe, he is met with a shock—spring-loaded snakes leap out, causing a zany reaction.

The comments section is buzzing with admiration and laughter. One user marvels at the lengths Flom went to execute this prank, asking, "Did this dude make two holes in his bathroom, another in his hallway, hang up a door of a functional safe, just for this prank?" Another user humorously suggests that the safe should have included a cartoonish spring punching glove for added effect.

Flom's deadpan delivery, especially when he casually explains, "that's what the tube is," adds to the comedic value, making the friend seem unreasonable for his startled reaction. The prank is even dubbed a "safety measure" by one commenter, who notes that locks are designed to waste time when forced open.

The picture hiding the safe is a nod to classic TV, featuring Lucy and Desi Arnaz, which one commenter believes is a hint to the safe's code. The internet is divided, with some calling it a waste of money, while others deem it "the best waste of money ever."

Flom's creativity doesn’t end here; one commenter reveals that his entire house is filled with similar quirky surprises, pointing to another of his videos featuring a trapdoor. Whether it’s a distraction for a real safe containing money and jewelry or just a goofy prank, Justin Flom’s antics have left everyone in stitches.

The video has even inspired a fictional news scenario where a local man is shot by intruders, only to have them open a safe full of spring-loaded snakes, leaving him to die laughing. Such imaginative comments highlight the sheer entertainment value Flom provides.

In the end, Flom’s friend’s lack of trust and startled reaction, combined with the clever use of a classic safe prank, showcase Justin Flom’s unique brand of humor. This video is a testament to how a well-executed prank can captivate and entertain an audience, proving once again that the internet is indeed a better place for it.

Should have one one of those cartoon spring punching gloves

I like how he is just deadpan "thats what the tube is" like his friend is unreasonable for asking about it.

DreadZeppelin

Technically that's a safety measure because (for instance) locks are just made to waste as much time when trying to force it.
