PLAY: Your friends from the 'Apprentice'
HAVE FUN with friends and colleagues by getting Bill Cullen to fire them from the Apprentice.
Using an online application developed by DV4, you fill in your friends details and they are sent a customised video explaining why they have been fired from the TV3 show.
Choose from a range of fibs that someone might not reveal on their CV, such as how an interest in networking actually means they spend all their time on Facebook. Lots of fun for Apprentice viewers.

Overnight a team of pranksters turn the steps of a Stockholm metro station into the world's largest piano using pressure pads that play different notes as they are stepped on.
Just watch the reaction of unsuspecting commuters.
