Today, for April fools I decided to set off the smoke detectors in my friend's apartment while he was sleeping and saran wrap the outside of his bedroom doorway so he would smack into it. Instead, he jumped out the window and broke his leg. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my friend thought it would be funny to dress in all black with a ski mask and use my spare key to break into my house as a joke. He though it was even funnier when I jumped out the window and broke my leg. FML
Today, my friends thought it'd be funny to hold lighters under the smoke alarms while I was sleeping. FML
Today, a coworker and I pulled a April Fools' prank on our boss. She "borrowed" his keys and rolled down his window. I took a car window from a scrap yard and sprinkled it on the ground near his door. His response was to kick the nearest object in anger. The nearest object happened to be my car. FML
Today, I ran into the living room when I heard the smoke alarm going off. Turns out, my friend thought it was a good idea to melt a plastic cup on my floor heater. He also thought the best way to put it out was to urinate on it. My house smells like burnt pee. FML
Today, I was having a smoke out on the balcony of my apartment. When I was walking back into the house, I walked straight into the large glass sliding door, loudly whacking it with my forehead, subsequently waking up my 2 other flatmates at 2.30am. FML
Today, my roommate played a "prank" on me. He taped a length of clear cellophane at ankle-height just outside my bedroom door, causing me to trip and faceplant the floor, and busting out a tooth. I now look like a hick, and my roommate is refusing to cover my dental bills. FML
Today, I broke my leg while trying to show my friend how I broke my other leg. FML
Today, I tried to surprise my girlfriend by showing up at her apartment early. I climbed through her bedroom window, holding flowers. I got the wrong window. Some old man screamed, hit me with a broom, and called the cops. FML
Today, my roommate thought it would be funny to throw a brick down the laundry-chute. Guess who spent the night at the hospital. FML
Today, I snuck into my boyfriend's house because I knew his parents wouldn't be there. Later, I woke up in a hospital bed because his sister thought I was a burglar and tased me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IF AFTER YOU SERAN WRAPPED HIS DOOR, AND INBETWEEN SETTING THE ALARM OFF, A REAL FIRE STARTED IN THE KITCHEN AND HE COULDN'T GET OUT! Today, my 'friend' seran wrapped my door then went to set the fire alarm off so I would run into the seran wrap. Instead, a fire broke out in the kitchen and I was safe in my room, but he has burns to his face. Jokes on him now. FML

You guys, he was sleeping. He was probably really disoriented and wasn't thinking properly, so of course he overreacted when he heard the smoke alarm. Honestly, if that happened to me, i probably would jump out the window if i could find no other escape (it was in his bedroom, i'm sure he doesn't have a second door), just to be safe. The smoke alarm in my house does go off when people cook sometimes, but if i can't physically go and check to make sure there's a fire somewhere or see if there is (don't forget the door was SERAN WRAPPED people, that can hide things at first), and i'm really groggy and disoriented and can't think logically past "fire. get out.", i'd rather be safe than sorry. It was really stupid and cruel for you to do that, OP.

Neither of them deserved it, but no one is groggy and disoriented when waking from a smoke detector and someone yelling "fire" unless they were heavily intoxicated the night before. Having actually been awakened by a fire, I can attest to this with full confidence. That shit will wake you right up. He should have checked for another exit, and seeing that the door was Saran-wrapped, should have realized that it would have /melted/ if there was a fire. =/

That's awful, but this is coming from a terrible insomniac that values sleep since it's so elusive to me. I'd be really pissed if someone did this. And #148 has got it right, if you wake up and are freaking out not thinking straight, you're going to go for the first thing that occurs to you to GET OUT. Survival instinct.. and if it had been a real fire he'd be lucky to escape with just a broken leg. YDI. He didn't.

his fault for jumping out the window before making sure there was actually a fire.

I agree with #153 so what he was sleeping, I was probably the dumbest thing anyone could ever do. It's not your fault, your friend was the one who jumped out of the window...well next time just remember to saran wrap the window.

I don't really think it's a good idea to use safety tools for pranking, but the fault for breaking a leg lies squarely on the friend. Only an idiot would wake up to an alarm going off, no smoke, no indication of a fire at all, and jump out the window straight away without even checking the door, particularly if the window is so high you can break your leg jumping out of it.
