Do you “Blödsinn machen” works as a translation for “mucking around”?

Like you see a bunch of lads and they look like they are fighting , ie its a serious situation but then you realise they are friends and playfighting and having fun

Hmmm, to me Bloedsinn machen is a bit too negative, as if you disapprove of what they’re doing. Rumbloedeln would work better for such a context imo.
