Social media is filled with funny moments between couples, and one of our all-time favorite types of videos are pranks. So who did we have to reach out to for the best pranks to do on your boyfriend? Ling & Lamb, of course!
Ling & Lamb—Taccara Rae (Ling) and Yinka Lawanson (Lamb)—have been married since January 2019, and they've taken the internet by storm with their relatable, hysterical videos. With over 825K followers on Instagram, 1.38 million subscribers on YouTube and a whopping 3.9 million followers on TikTok, you've likely run into their content on one of these platforms—and it's likely brought a smile to your face.
Making others and each other crack up is, after all, what Ling & Lamb are all about. "I’ve always felt that life can be too serious, so whenever you can, LAUGH!" Ling tells Parade.
And they definitely recommend pranking within a relationship. "Having a sense of humor in a relationship is a MUST!" explains Ling. "It will get you through life’s ups and downs. Laughter is truly the best medicine and having a partner who can laugh and make you laugh is one of the most amazing feelings you can share in a relationship."
Lamb agrees. "Laughter in a relationship is an important, powerful communication tool that allows you to feel a deep sense of freedom to talk to your partner about anything," he says. "I also believe laughter helps you to keep in touch with your inner child, which keeps you young and fun."

"Never in a million years did I see myself thrown down the front stairs, in the rain, with trash all over me," Lamb adds. "But there I was, ready to risk it all for my wife. Once she told me it was a prank, I didn’t know if I should be mad or burst out laughing. I wound up laughing and running inside to shower."

"This one was funny," Lamb laughs. "I know my wife is very smart, so I was confused [about] how she could do something like that, but then I also had to remind myself that she doesn’t know about cars.
