Nikki Baker, 25, and John Dahl, 26, met in high school in Northfield, Minnesota. He got her attention by shaking a can of beer in front of her, then cracking it open so a geyser of foam blasted into her face.

Their popularity increased further when the Nikki and John appeared on MTV’s Pranked, which devoted a special segment just to them. Their revenge pranks include: A doughnut is spiked with hot chilies, shampoo is swapped with hair bleach (and, later, purple dye), itching powder is poured onto the bed, closet doors are booby-trapped with a bucket of green slime (he proposed marriage to her after that one—she said yes).
