Great Escape in a suitcase: Woman’s hostel prank leaves Netizens in splits!
A girl inmate hid herself in a suitcase and apparently the suitcase was being wheeled out of the hostel when the hostel security smelt a rat
Hyderabad: Hostel pranks are legendary! Every hostelite has a tale to narrate irrespective of their ages. Either it’s a failed prank or a successful one. These pranks told, retold and savoured, more so in class reunions or friendly get-togethers. Nostalgia need not be painful, but enjoyable too.
Most of these pranks are harmless ones, meant to elicit a chuckles or a loud guffaw. Perhaps sometimes to get even with a fellow boarder or warden, who is not liked or with someone to settle a long pending score. But in the end, it’s all meant for humour.
After all what’s hostel life without a few pranks to remember and narrate?
But this current episode reported from a hostel in a reputed college purportedly in New Delhi (Yes. We are withholding the college name and you know why!) takes the cake. It may not strictly fall into the category of a prank, but nevertheless, this episode will be told, retold a million times in the times to come.
So here goes the story! We have this young lady boarder of a hostel. We do not know how strict was the security at the women’s hostel or whether the hostel managers were treating their subjects like prisoners prompting one of the inmates to attempt a ‘Great Escape’.
We do not know whether it was planned by her accomplice, stated to be a man or the boarder herself in question, but the escape plan appeared to be meticulous, until the security smelt a rat.
The girl inmate hid herself in a suitcase (of the size used by US bound students to pack things in check-in baggage) and apparently the suitcase was being wheeled out of the hostel.
We are not sure whether the girl got claustrophobic and screamed or she screamed when the suitcase hit a bump, but the security closed in like a peregrine falcon swooping down to clutch a fish which just touched the water surface.
In a jiffy, the suitcase was unzipped and voila! The woman in question steps out, albeit red-faced. And here comes the strange part. Someone video recorded the entire episode on a phone and posted it on Reddit. Of course! We do not endorse or agree with the post that accompanied the video or the comments thereof, as we can not verify them for veracity.
Should we call it a ‘Great Escape’ plan or a ‘Hostel Escape’?
