21 Times People Took Revenge Too Far

It’s easy to take revenge too far — just ask my former English teacher who tried to flunk me because I flipped him the bird when he cut me off at a stoplight. He was ultimately unsuccessful in failing me, but that’s probably because he lacked the determination of the vengeful souls below. 

One Redditor was involved in a very heated prank war, and ordered 500 business cards with the slogan “If I’m creepin, you ain’t sleepin,” framing their friend as a “Professional Creep.” They spread the cards around town and watched in silent amusement as their buddy received “harassing phone calls” for months on end. 

After two long years of confusion, the friend saw one of the creepy business cards about him on a stranger’s refrigerator during a house party and put two and two together. “He was pissed and is still getting random calls 10 years later,” their friend recalled. 

This gag gone wrong is one of many times people realized they took vengeance to a whole different level. Other such similar tales include those about broken bones, popped tires and a baby that’s sure to be scarred for life.
