The video would have been much better had he actually caught the actual prank on camera.
maybe have them ask for a water hammer or a key stretcher.
Well at least he didn't send them in to ask for a 97 Tacoma water pump gasket....

Or some Fallopian tubing...
We do this to new people at work sometimes.
Turd Ferguson retractors, Otis elevators, atraumatic scissors, left handed knife handles, etc.
Sometimes I send one my metalwork students to the woodshop for a long weight.
Mom used to work at a bank eons ago, and she would send the manager to another branch to pick up some verbal agreement forms. Then phone ahead and have them send him to the next branch.
Bucket of propwash and a spool of flight line.
The bucket of steam was a new one for me.
We send the newbs around our dealer network looking for the seat stretcher.
We also have pulled the coil wire, wait for it to start raining, and have a newb go jump up and downing on the bumper to burp the gas tank until the car starts.
Blue Chow Line?
BA-1100-N's. I got sent to Motor Transport for those fresh out of MOS school. Wrote it out on a pad in the next room and went to the PX and then stopped by the barracks to fill up the goodies. When I returned after about an hour, the guy that sent me got soaked by a couple of water balloons...
We would send new guys to get Chem light batteries and blinker fluid. most of the time the mechanics would play along and give the newbs the runaround.

Being in helicopters it was rotor wash instead of prop wash.
We had machine shop make a stepped cone and put it in the tool room as an o-ring stretcher. A few others I can't remember know. But growing up around aviation maintenance I knew about most of these. There was once my SGT sent me for some elephant snot. I looked at him and said yeah right, it's right next to the rotor wash. He grabbed my collar and drug me to a locker and pulled out a can of what did kinda look like elephant snot, proper term is zinc-chromate putty. 
When they drilled holes in the flight line to put aircraft tiedown rings in, we kept a chunk of it and called it a piece of flight line. Used it as a door stop.
In reply to wlkelley3:
We had a sealant made by 3M that everyone called "baby E36 M3". It looked and smelled like it.
I can't even remember the real name.
The information you seek is in the company library. They never find the company library!
Relative bearing grease was always a good one on submarines to send someone after.

The second one could get VERY expensive if the new guy decides to put in a supply requisition.
