A Couple's Dueling Pranks Score Big

It was love at first knee to the groin. Nikki Baker, 22, and John Dahl, 25, met in high school; 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. She returned his affection with a brutal blow to the crotch. Today, their finely honed Honeymooners-meets-Jackass revenge routine is a runaway hit.

In the two years since Baker posted the first video, the couple?s antics?all involve revenge pranks?have garnered 17 million YouTube views and have been reposted elsewhere to the tune of a staggering 43 million views. Their popularity spiked further when the couple appeared on MTV?s Pranked, which devoted a special segment just to them. Nothing seems sacred: 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).

The duo now pull in roughly $2,000 month in ad revenue and continue to enjoy their bizarre notion of connubial bliss. ?It?s amazing, really,? Baker says of her happy relationship with Dahl. ?You never feel resentment if you are always getting even.? Who needs communication and empathy when you?ve got hot sauce?
