I, personally LOVE playing tricks and pranks on people. But in a way, it can be dangerous.
If you prank people often, then that can lead to regular bad behavior and one day, one of your pranks might go too far and cause you to receive punishments or even jail.
It can also cause harm to your "victim" or the one who's being pranked. You might think your tricks are funny, but some other person might not. I played a trick on my 10 year old brother a few years ago and he started crying. He said I scared him. At least he only cried, I mean, some other people might feel violent towards your tricks. Let's say you tricked some dude but he didn't like it. Now let's say that there was a nearby baseball bat or something that could be used as a weapon. Yeah, not a good match. He could easily rage and come at you because you pranked him. That would mean your prank had hurt him, and maybe even you. And when I say hurt, I don't just mean physically, I mean emotionally too, and maybe even socially. If people know you as the guy you plays tricks on everyone, they're not really going to feel safe around you or want to be your friend. (Unless they're other pranksters)
There are multiple ways playing tricks on people can be dangerous. It's still okay to pull a prank here and there, just remember to make sure it's safe, won't get you in trouble, and the person you're pranking would be someone who's okay with it. Like, don't prank a biker guy with a bunch of tattoos and a cigar, or worse, don't prank your mom. Only play tricks on people occasionally, not too often. Maybe once every two weeks.
