  1. USB cables can be very expensive. I doubt your friend will find this humurous.


  2. If I were you I'd use a flat screwdriver to break the little white plastic part inside the metal part.  Hope that works!

  3. USB cables are built to be tough! there are four wires with a shield/braid wrapped around them. You are not going to break them easily.

    The better way would be to wipe superglue over the gold contacts on the end. This way the cable LOOKS intact, but will not pass the digital signals.

    Be prepared for the consequences. I hope your friend beats you about the head and shoulders with a baseball bat.
