"We feel that at it's heart, 'Impractical Jokers' is a show about friendship and how we interact with our buddies, and that is universal. Busting your friends chops transcends borders and languages. Everybody loves to kick their friends around a little bit. It's our way of saying we love each other," Quin told IANS.
"In making the show we have come to realise that you can get away with almost anything just by being confident and wearing a smile. People don't question a lot of the stupid stuff we do. It's very eye opening," Quinn added.
