There is one man on Youtube who can, in my opinion, most definitely claim credit for the best prank calls. His channel name is Ownage Pranks. His pranks calls have had my friends and I in laughing fits. His channel has over 2,700,000 views and millions and millions of video views/hits. It is no surprise as to why he has gained such an incredible following. He has mastered one tool than allows him to perfect a prank call. I'm talking about accents.
The idea of a prank call is to piss somebody off without them realising who you are. Mastering an accent helps with that and it adds comedic value. The man behind Ownage Pranks has prank called using a Chinese accent, Vietnamese accent, Indian accent, and a great deal of others. He has even used a deep African-American voice, as well as a hillbilly voice. He adopts various personalities such as an Asian person by the name of Buk Lau. He sometimes uses this persona to prank call Asian restaurants. He also uses an American persona by the name of Russell Johnson where he tends to prank call in a more serious tone where the person being prank calls may fear that he or she is in trouble. The prank calls usually end up in a hot mess where the both parties at either end of the line start swearing at each other and dealing in threats.
Ownage Pranks tends to do this in a comedic manner, sometimes even laughs during his sessions. People provide Owange Pranks with recommendations such as pranking McDonalds and he then proceeds to prank call those numbers using Skype. There are also numerous incidents where anonymous people have provided Ownage Pranks with the contact details of a friend or something who a certain issue, Ownage Pranks then proceeds to revolve that whole prank around that issue, and that's where stuff really get heated up. The man is a genius. He is simply hilarious. People try to impersonate his famous voices, accents, and personas, but lack the magic. His famous phrases and catchphrases have also escaped into the outside world where people such as myself even use them at times.
