Check out TOP-5 Facts About 1st of April (April Fools’ Day)

3. Media’s Epic Pranks

Media outlets in different countries have a long-standing tradition of releasing a phony story to celebrate the April Fools’Day.

For example, the BBC released a “report” about Swiss farmers “harvesting spaghetti” in the 1950s, while in 1976, it played up its listeners by saying that on April 1, the gravity of Earth could be temporally reduced and everyone who jumps would feel they are floating in the air. Many individuals later called the media outlet to say which they felt the effect.

 

In 2008, a media outlet released a movie about “flying penguins” in which it claimed that they’d escaped the frosty Antarctic weather by flying to warm regions in South America.

Because of its part, Swedish national television aired a 5-minute special in 1962 on how one might make a handmade color TV by putting a plastic stocking in front of the black and white screen. There have been a whole lot of individuals who really tried to put the advice into practice.

In 1969, the Dutch public broadcaster NTS reported that police officers with remote scanners would patrol the streets to find those that hadn’t paid their radio/TV tax and recommended people wrap their TV and radio sets in aluminum foil to avoid detection. 24 hours later aluminum foil was sold out in most stores across the country.
