Psychotic Prankster

Psychotic Prankster is an achievement in Fallout 3 which is awarded for successfully reverse pickpocketing a live explosive into someone's inventory.

Pants Exploded is both a term and a player-statistic that appears on the screen between loading areas. It measures the total number of times the player has planted explosives on someone.

Strategy

 * Since you have to be crouching to pickpocket, make sure you holster your weapon, you only have a couple seconds to back out of the blast-zone and its best to keep your hands free so you can move quickly.


 * An easy way to get this is to do it on the ghoul that you see outside of Tenpenny Tower when you first arrive, Roy Philips. As long as you sneak behind him to do it, he won't notice.


 * Even with 100% sneak skill, silent running and an active stealth boy you won't always succeed. So, when its an important or dangerous target, its probably best to save before trying.
