It was the summer of 1986 when, at what appeared to be a normal barbeque, Richard Opie pushed Ronald Pickering fully clothed into a swimming pool. What happened next would change their lives forever. Fasten your seatbelts and shove your fist in your mouth as you prepare to enjoy a heart-warming, pants-wetting tale spanning a decade: a story of honour, immaturity and one helluva water fight. A story of two men and how their refusal to grow up helped one of Melbourne’s funniest comedians, Charlie Pickering, to do just that.

Read on in awe as the two take practical jokes to whole new levels, including five star restaurants, novelty ties, numerous visits to casualty, old toilets, glitter and the SES. Yes that’s right … the SES. There are none of your typical pull-my-finger dad jokes in this book. Impractical Jokes will make you laugh. Out loud. For those who have only seen him on Talking ‘bout Your Generation or The 7PM Project, this is your opportunity to witness Charlie’s comic genius unbound by the limitations of television and stand-up shows.
