     The oppposite of the door removal prank, and an update of the old bricking up of doorways. This works on any door that has a recession of a few inches or more into the wall. The foam spray expands to fill holes and gaps in insulation inside walls of houses. What you'll need to do is cover the door, and the floor with newspapers or plastic, taped together to make a solid sheet. This way, the foam stays out of the carpet. If you have a linoleum tile floors, the foam will not stick as well, so a layer here is unneccesary. Then apply another layer of newspaper or plastic a couple of inches away, taping it to the outside of the frame or to the wall. This should leave a gap between the door cover and the second layer of the paper. Insert the nozzle of the can into this gap, and let rip. When the foam dries, it shouldform a solid barrier several inches thick. This can be used in conjunction with the room fill prank, so that when the person breaks through the foam into their office or classroom, they're greeted by a pile of tennis balls....
