The 1st one is normally by accident. For example, a friend of mine (a girl) was talking with big hand gestures and didn't notice my cousin behind her until she whacked him where it hurts and he was kneeling over on the ground.... The second one i normally see with guys that are close friends. I'm not sure where they "learned" this but I'm assuming that some other friends started it and it just snowballed. They do it for fun, like a weird way to make their guy friends' nervous. I’ve seen both these types in my school. The 1st one is normally by accident.
