*Laughs* And the boat just keeps on GOING! My favorite part was watching the crewman dash inside with the inferno over his head.
First rule of boating: boats don’t have brakes!
Actually, this would be the famed Fail Bridge. The boat was the victim.
actually, bridge wins
its photoshopped…
You are right, the sign should say ‘Holland Av.’ :p
just like seeing titanic all over again >.<
Just a little off the top, please.
Yay. We love you fail boat!
That’s one tough bridge!
This was not the boats fault, the vertical lift bridge operator was drunk and started to lower the bridge before it made it through, you can see where he tries to raise it back up after the impact. this is a Bridge Fail!
Operator Fail it would be then.
Actually, he wasn’t drunk. He thought that the boat cleared the bridge, and started lowering it. As soon as he saw that he was mistaken, he raised the bridge again. I watched a TV show that explained how this happened.
ACTUALLY he was drunk, i work for the Welland Canal where this happened…but it’s mainly the Seaways fault cause the St. Lawrence Seaway called the guy in on his day off and he told them he had been drinking…so they sent a cab for him lmao
This is why that bridge is now automatic.
Love the song
@ Mp3thief,
Yeah, you can totally see the bridge lifting up at the last second. A similar thing to this happened in Tampa years ago except it brought half the bridge down and there was a fog and multiple cars drove over the edge. Good thing there were no cars on the bridge. And to see my CARTOONS click on my name link.
the bridge was going DOWN, and s few secs after impact it started going up. so my guess is that the bridge guard was a little bit happy with the release trigger.
or pissed ._.
omg i heard about that. the sunshine skyway bridge wasn’t it… man that is a big bridge to get hit by a boat.
I think this failboat thing is really harsh. Someone died trying to rescue this boat and I think it is an insult to his family to be mocking this boat.
Comment fail
According to new reports, NO ONE was injured.
Heh. At the end of the video, it says, “None of the 22 crew members were injured.” GRAMMAR FAIL
yeah this was on that show shockwave on the hisstory channel.
random vaccuaous ill informed lack of detail comment win imo
you go to a site called FAILblog and then try to say it’s impolite to laugh at the misfortunes of others. barefaced hypocrite, you fail. come again
(singing Hues Corporation)
Mock the boat
Don’t mock the boat, baby
Mock the boat
Don’t tip the boat over
Mock the boaaaaat…etc
no body died…get ur facts straight….the Windoc hit Bridge 11 - Allanberg in Thorald Ontario in 2001……oh sorry BRIDGE 11 HIT THE WINDOC LOL
yeah, it’s not fail boat, it’s birdge fail actually…
Canada’s Transportation Safety Board’s report indicates that there were no injuries, and that “It is likely that the operator’s performance was impaired at the time of the occurrence”, although the impairment seems to have been due to expired prescription medications rather than alcohol.
I guess this is medication advice fail then. “Do not operate heavy machinery…”
I almost experienced something like this on a 25-foot fishing boat.
We were trying to get up the Mystic River and encountered a bridge that was pretty durn low. We decided to try pushing on the bridge to make the boat lower in the water and we were about to clear it when the sober person among us noted that the tide was rising and we would be trapped on the other side of the bridge for the next 11-12 hours.
We turned back downriver and as we floated off, I noticed a restaurant right on the water with every window filled with people watching us. I’m pretty sure someone lost a bet on this one.
that is sooooo funny!!! hahhahah
Nobody was injured? that is FAIL. destruction and fire without pain and death is worthless to me.
Well, if it’s any consolation the ship was a write-off; the damage was so severe it wasn’t worth repairing. And I don’t recall the exact figure, but the bridge was out of service for several months at least.
You’re the kind of person who gets a hard-on watching the death toll in Iraq, aren’t you?
You guys are too good! You crack me up! I have discovered this website very recently and I went trough the whole thing at once-It’s hilarious!! I love failboat, it seems to be the failblog mascot hahaha this is going right to my bookmarks!!
Failblog you’ve fulfilled my ultimate fantasy……Video Failboat!!!!!!!
Watch her move!!! Shake it baby don’t break……..ooohhhh nevermind….
Just need to replace the music with some good ol chikka chikka bow wow.
Failboat, we salute you. May your continuing underachievements bring you much unsuccess.
Haha! Awesome!
LoL!!!!
LOL Holland failed!!!
muhahahahahahaha
Yay! IMO like silvanimal wrote: Failboat should be FAILblog mascot… cos’ it’s soooo shweeet! <3
Rockin! I HATE failboat!
Haha, that was awesome. I read the headline but didnt expect that.
FAILboat just keeps on going home.
crash was funny, fire wasn’t. even if nobody was injured or killed.
Brendan: wow. Cold man, just cold.
On another note, that song is total FAIL. Why not Dio’s “All the fools sailed away”. And yes, I know that only 3 people got that reference, and at least one of them has a mullet.
Crew WIN: One crew member got stuck in the wheelhouse and survived by laying flat on the deck while the ship was sliced off 18″ above him.
i live near where this happened and it was a true fail they almost shut down that bridge after this as it was the bridge was up for several months so “epic fail”
I second (third, fourth…) the “FailBridge” comments - big boats just can’t stop when the bridge operator screws up. NOT failBOAT, but failBRIDGE.
Yeah, “failboat” sounds like “sailboat,” but that kind of thinking eventually ends up with complete nonsense.
It is an awesome (and terrible) thing to behold, though.
thats a bridge on the Welland cannal they don’t have operators there automates by sensors or some thing like that and it was a mechanical failure of some sort
wrong-o…remotely operated by a real live person
Kill all auto-smilies.
Lol I remember when this happened. Hooray for Niagara and our tres stupidity! D:
I remember when this happened. Yay for Niagara making the failblog!
The bagpipe music while the boat was crashing into the bridge really did it for me. I fucking laughed till it hurt.
Is that a fail boat or fail bridge. Hard to tell.
In this case it was actually fail bridge! The boat was doing what it was supposed to and the bridge failed.
I love how the guy goes into the boat to check if fail is true (fail was true he later found out)
what about the passengers?
lmao…passengers?….its a cargo ship lol …grain..
u idiot, it should have been bridge FAIL. n00b
omg…i have the perfect failboat picture…goddamn i gotta post it here
This actually happened right near where I live. I used to go across that bridge at least once a week. My friends grandfather was one of the crewmen on the boat, too. Things like this are funny until it happens so close to you and involve people you know.
Of course, looking back on it now, it is funny, especially since the injuries were relatively minor.
epic
