Circa early 2002, interactive flash videos known as “scare pranks” or “scary mazes” began to emerge across the Interweb and e-mail chains.

Scare Prank Reaction Videos
While the flash videos quickly gained momentum on their own, “scare pranks” really hit it home with YouTube response videos, when people began uploading footage of their beloved ones (like younger siblings and grandmothers) nearly soiling themselves to the prank videos.
Similar to reaction videos that followed the better-known 2 Girls, 1 Cup, Scare Prank reactions are yet another classic example of Internet users gunning for the lulz at the expense of close relatives and friends.

My first screamer? A video called “Try to laugh at this” or something with a lolcat.
I lost all feeling in my body for 2 seconds.
Second one was Luna Game 5 Secret Cutsence video (it’s actually a real video from the secret cutsence of Luna Game 5 :P)
