Here's a trick that can trick your friends into pulling a pen that can make them smell a really foul odor.

Step 1  

Take apart the pen. You should have the ink thing, spring, the cap, and the body of the click pen.

Step 2  

Take the bobby pin and put it through the spring.

Step 3  

Put the bobby pin in the cap.

Step 4  

Take your pliers and bend the ends.

Step 5  

Place a strike anywhere match in the body of the pen.

Step 6  

Reassemble the pen.

Step 7  

Keep pulling the bobby pin until smoke comes out. Pulling the bobby pin causes the sulfur in the strike anywhere match to be released, creating the odor.

Step 8  

Disassemble and add a new strike anywhere match as necessary.

Video describing exactly how to do this.

Tips

  • If you want, you can throw away the ink thing. It isn't needed.
  • After every "shot", open up the pen again, and place another Strike Anywhere match inside and place the cap back on.
  • You can get Strike Anywhere matches and hardware stores like Home Depot.

Warnings

  • Don't throw away the spring, the body, and the cap of the pen. You'll need it.
  • Don't use other types of matches. Only Strike anywhere matches will work.

Things You'll Need

  • A click pen
  • Bobby pin
  • Strike Anywhere Matches
  • Pliers
