A classroom prank has gone viral after a group of students left their teacher completely shocked and running for help when they all pretended to faint.

Content creator @devardo.montaque, known for posting funny and personal content on social media, shared the amusing footage showing a teacher writing on the board while referencing a textbook. As she focused on her work, a student approached her from behind. When the teacher began to notice someone's presence, the student suddenly collapsed to the ground, pretending to have fainted.

What happened next was a perfectly coordinated effort by the entire class. One by one, every student sitting at their desks dramatically passed out, falling to the floor. The confused teacher first noticed the student on the floor beside her, then looked around to see all her other students unconscious.

For a few moments, the teacher stood frozen, clearly unsure how to react to the bizarre scene. After her initial confusion turned to fear, she quickly ran out of the classroom, presumably to get help. As soon as she left, the students jumped up from their unconscious states and erupted into laughter, revealing it was all an elaborate prank.

Pranks often serve as a way for young people to test boundaries and develop social bravery. According to child development experts, these types of social challenges can help children learn to handle uncomfortable situations and build confidence in their ability to navigate social interactions, even when they might provoke negative reactions from others.
