The Late Alan Rickman & Michael Gambon Played An Epic Prank On Daniel Radcliffe During Harry Potter Filming

Remembering the late, great Alan Rickman in the best possible way...

This week sadly saw legendary actor Alan Rickman pass away at the age of 69.

His death, like music icon David Bowie's, came as a shock to many, after battling cancer.

But here's just one of the many reasons we loved the man who played Professor Snape, as he and Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) teamed up to play the ultimate prank on Harry Potter himself (played by Daniel Radcliffe).

Take a look below - and we dare you not to burst out laughing...

It's OK, we couldn't keep a straight face either.

If it wasn't enough putting Radcliffe next to the girl he fancied, making it seem like he was a tad windy during a take is perhaps the ultimate joke.

As Radcliffe remembers the embarrassing incident - along with Emma Watson and Rupert Grint - it's hard not to raise a smile and share his sense of humour.

As wonderful and, at times, serious the late Rickman would take his work, there's nothing quite like a practical joke to get a collective laugh from the entire cast, crew and extras, is there?

Rest in peace, Professor Severus Snape. You shall be forever adored and sorely missed.
