  3. Bleeh says:

  4. D says:

    And the little child still seems to be climbing towards the elder…

  5. dingo says:

    suck it baby, suck it!

  6. lilacsigil says:

    For added fail, the writing on the statue says “Father Love”.

  7. Jen says:

    major FAIL…ewww

  8. OH COME ON!

    How do these things even get built, somebody must have been looking at the thing when it was designed and gone..”hang on a sec…”

    righthandgenius.wordpress.com

    ^^nearly almost half as good as failblog…nearly

  9. Happy Mother’s Day!

  10. damnedgamer says:

    he had to ask wheter his mate had a joung brother/son xD

  11. quanzie says:

    The Chinese characters say “love father.” that’s a direct translation.

  12. Linda says:

    Was that intentional?!

  13. dudedude says:

    lol……spaztards

    they can’t get anything right

  14. That’s the worst fail yet. Yuck.

  15. Sofar says:

    Caption fail. Normally we like to call statue artists “sculptors.”

  16. anon says:

    wow. does anyone know where in china this is?

    • Iaccus says:

      I’m about 90% sure this statue stand in front of the north entrance to the Taipei central train station. Taipei is in Taiwan, and yes those are Chinese characters. I can’t be sure it’s the same one, may be a replica, but I was quite shocked when I saw it several years ago. I didn’t have a camera, though, so I’m glad someone else captured the artistic tragedy. As I remember, it’s not nearly as bad from other angles. None the less…

  17. failblogrocks says:

    leechio quit putting dirty stuff here!

  18. failblogrocks says:

    #19, that’s korian. it’s in korea.

  19. Seriously? says:

    [...] Fail Statue « The FAIL Blog: [...]

  20. Anonymous says:

    #21 Where in Korea? Of course Korea may also use Chinese characters, but I don’t see a single Korean character in the picture, only Chinese.

  21. Dark says:

    Oh, this has got to be better from another angle, because I really hope that it’s not what it looks like…

  22. missbossy says:

    It’s Chinese

  23. Anonymous says:

    СКУЛЬПТОР ПИДОРАС

  24. Anonymous says:

    lol wat?

    That’s not Korean.

  25. ktr2003 says:

    that’s so wrong in so many levels.

  26. NAMBLA ex says:

    lol @ NAMBLA Headquarters! fukin classic, n for those who dont watch south park…grow up

    xD

    ^i hate smilies btw….

  27. Stace says:

    How sad!

    LMFAO

  28. chunque says:

    Wow. That’s perverted. I wonder what it looks like from the side?

    http://www.stuffwhitedbagslike.wordpress.com

  29. Tina Thomsen says:

    Pervert it is! And then again maybe the world has changed a lot since the statue was made.

    http://www.tinathomsen.wordpress.com

  30. Anonymous says:

    Translation: Fatherly love. No, seriously

  31. thelolreview says:

    HA!

  32. Blue says:

    I beg to differ! It wasn’t as artist fail. I bet the artist thinks it’s hilarious that someone agreed to display that statue in public.

  33. Fennerisma says:

    This is in Taipei, I saw this when I visited a few years ago – totally amazing.

  34. Mike says:

    You’re all perverts.

    I’ve seen this statue at the Taipei train station and there is nothing suggestive about it when you look at it in person. In fact, I think that image is altered to make it look like the kid’s head is straight forward when in reality its turned to the right.

  35. hesika says:

    It looks like a deprivation… Ouch!

  36. aughtadinfinitum says:

    The most interest detail: on the left side of the base, Li Dendhui, Taiwan’s former president’s and Taiwan independentist signature.

  37. Joanna says:

    OMFG!! I TOTALLY KNOW THIS STATUE!!!!!

    It’s outside of Taipei Train Station in the center of Taiwan. I walked by it so many times and finally go around to taking a picture and laughing my a** off ahahahahaha this was awesome!!

  38. JT says:

    I think a more accurate and simultaneously funny translation would be “Love Daddy.”

  39. firelotus says:

    Oh my goodness

  40. Y K says:

    It is a perfectly innocent statue. Nothing wrong with a child running towards his father I see this happening all the time in Hyde Park. What is wrong is the twisted minds of the readers and probably also the media who is obsessed with reporting paedophilia stories regularly.

  41. Geeky says:

    Wouldn’t that be a PaedoFAIL?

  42. crewe says:

    愛 = Love | 父 = Father
    At least in Japanese but I’m pretty sure it applies to Chinese as well.

  43. mufasafail says:

    taiwanese for king of pop?

  44. matiac says:

    soooooo wrong

  45. Christopholous says:

    omfg! He’s probably a catholic!

    • PsychoDad says:

      He’s probably a Jew!
      He’s probably a Negro!
      He’s probably a queer!
      He’s probably a Democrat!

      See? Hate speech just isn’t funny, doesn’t matter who you’re hating on.

      Except maybe you, you turkey-fkking shhtt-fer-brains useless excuse for a piece of used toilet paper.

  46. Cecikierk says:

    The two characters are written in traditional right-to-left fashion, so it means “fatherly love”, not “loving father”.

  47. randomname says:

    i dunno…that kid looks like he’s suffocating

  48. clayton says:

    hey i no that man he made me do it

  49. Eric Schmidt says:

    Vocabulary fail… “Statue artist” = “Sculptor”

  50. Sherry says:

    Oh, come on. This is obviously a normal depiction of a son hugging his father’s thigh, something kids do all the time. The angle it was taken, and the comments along with it, make it the mindf*ck. Clean up and grow up.

  51. 王鹿鹿 says:

    It means ‘a loving father’

  52. woolf says:

    “Father’s Love” located outside the North Second Entrance of Taipei Railway Station is an inscription made by ex-President Lee Teng-hui in August 1992 that was sent as a gift by the Rotary Club of Chung Shan in Taipei City. To reflect on the love of father, the sculptor Fong Shen was specially invited to make a sculpture for the first scene “Wish” to show a scene in which children are waiting for their father and the second scene “Return Home” to show a scene in which a father embraces his children.

  53. armanrules says:

    it would be funny if it was blowjob in chinese. XD

  54. Rastaimpasta says:

    Taiwan Catholic Church win

    • PsychoDad says:

      Taiwan Jews win!
      Taiwan Presbyterians win!
      Taiwan queers win!

      See? Hate speech just isn’t funny, doesn’t matter who you’re hating on.

      Except maybe you, you turkey-fkking shhtt-fer-brains useless excuse for a piece of used toilet paper.

  55. Ross says:

    Haha one of those characters means love in chinese

  56. Random says:

    The funny thing is, that actually says love one’s father

  57. Jimbob the destroyer says:

    I sure hope nobody had to pose for that statue to be carved.

  58. curry says:

    the first sign means love, “ai” in chinese xD

  59. sam says:

    i belive no one said FIRST x)

  60. truss says:

    The sentence means: The Love from Father. (父愛)
    Chinese sentences used to be read from right to left.
