  1. HammerTime says:

    First

  2. drdestrukto says:

    hahahahahaha

  3. Darb says:

    Producer WINS!

    • Pwotist says:

      I can just picture the producer waving wildly at the host, then hitting her hand to her forehead. ;)

      • KC says:

        So I am hung like a horse after all!!

        • Art Vandalay says:

          Comment of the week WIN!

        • mp says:

          Nice KC, very nice.

        • fepic ail says:

          b3nd pver and i’ll show you hung like a horse

          • durr says:

            isnt bending over usually how you tell you are hung like a horse?
            i guess you could technically trip over it as well.

        • Ray says:

          In proportion to their mass, Horses do not have large penises.

          More likely you are hung like a Gorilla.

        • Mall Security Guy says:

          This might be off topic, but has anyone had that dream where you realize your wiener has fallen off, or been cut off, and you’re trying to stick it back on so hopefully it grows back on, or heals back up, but it just won’t.

          In my version of the dream, I’m running to the hospital with my left hand over my crotch and my penis in my right hand. And, somehow, it’s like everyone in the World knows about it, and you’re just very embarrassed.

          You’re running down the street and a news crew is following you in a helicopter. Robin Meade of Headline News is all over the story. Publishing companies are calling your cell phone wanting to buy book rights.

          Then the penis starts talking to you likes it’s a finger puppet. It’s very disgruntled about being cut off. It’s got this really mad look on its face. It’s like “Dude! I told you to be careful with that razor while you are shaving my balls!

          And you don’t really know what to say to your penis, you’re just so sorry about the whole thing.

          Anybody else have that dream? Anybody know what it might mean? Any dream interpreters out there?

          • Muffles says:

            Never had it, but there was something about it in Freud’s books. It means you want Margaret Thatcher to choke you while you watch the news naked.

          • ThyGoblinKing says:

            Never had it personally; However, my fake degree in psychology tells me that it may mean that you secretly want to become a woman. (Un)fortunately You will never realize this dream due to a sense of shame about your desires. Your mother also use to threaten that masturbation would cause your penis to fall off.

          • minderbender says:

            Gogol fail.

          • jandrsn says:

            Therapy fail.

      • elfinugget says:

        Oh… it’s not a horse. It’s a butterfly.

        Right.

        Remember that picture of the horse I showed you?

        Now I want to know if there’s a picture of a horse earlier in the clip, or if it was a butterfly then too.

        • blaaaah says:

          it was never a butterfly. it was a moth. it will always be a moth.

          • if-your-mom-asks-her-panties-are-in-the-freezer-because-i-wanted-to-make-creamsicles says:

            you always knew? wow, that’s like a prophecy or something… you’re like a mothman… with… prophecies… what? damn these jokes are tough…

            • Mall Security Guy says:

              1. Thanks for the creamsicle. Vulgar, yet hilarious.

              2. The Moth Man Prophecies movie was awesome, yet to this day I still have no clue what it was about. I was a very heavy pot smoker when that movie came out. I just remember staring at the screen and saying “Dude, no way!” over and over through the whole thing. Even black people started telling me to shut up.

              3. Jokes are not tough, you just need to get more creative. Allow me to help.

              When in doubt, always insult someone’s Mother. You can never go wrong with a good old “you’re Mother’s so fat, she fell out of a fishing boat in the middle of the Pacific and set off Tsunami warnings in Japan” joke.

              Take “blaaaah” for example. You could say something like “Blaaaah?” that’s what you’re Mother said when I humped her in the sheep barn. Grandma still laughs when I tell that one about Dad.

              If that fails, take something they’ve said and turn it against them (or as some people call it, act like an attorney). “who appointed you as the it was never a butterfly. it was a moth. it will always be a moth. expert?”

              You can add something like “You Fag!” at the end, although this never seems to work on homosexuals.

              I have to run. I think I just heard a new post hit. I’ve always wanted to do something creative, like be the first one to write a comment and say “First!”

              • STFU! says:

                even black ppl started telling u to shut up?
                what the fuck’s that supposed to mean?!

                • arii says:

                  Have you never been to the movies before?

                  Maybe you have, but you weren’t able to hear all the other black people over your own immensely helpful comments, like, “Don’t go in there!!!” shouted at the top of your lungs.

        • bludrgn0 says:

          This comment just makes me wonder… Was there ever a picture of a horse? Or is that guy that dumb?

      • Glory says:

        “hey why is your forehead all red” “don’t look now but, I think that kid’s the avatar” *Facepalm*
        yes I live with an Anime Geek.
        “don’t let the cave-in get you down!”
        couldn’t resist. the above comment just reminded me of it so much.

    • Boter says:

      Eh, guy wins for not looking at the pciture when he first pulled it, but then continuing on the “horse” thing even when he knew it was wrong to get some laughs. “Bushy tail”? Definitely hamming it up.

      • bubba's mom says:

        Yeah, at first I thought he had just picked up the wrong picture and didn’t realize it—but then he pointed at the tail, etc….made me wonder if he’s in the early stages of an illness. Seriously. Doesn’t sound playful to me. I’ll look again…

  4. okto says:

    hahahah omg.. that was some of the funniest shit ive seen in a while

  5. Nick says:

    How many hooves does a horse have?

  6. Kritz says:

    im so getting a hose now!!

  7. Jay says:

    omg! he actually though it was a horse.

    “my produce told me…” lol

  8. PAVEL says:

    Nice horse! I have to get that camera.

  9. NoseMoking says:

    product resolution win, advertiser fail

  10. Krosan says:

    Where the hell does he see a horse?

  11. HarleyQuinn says:

    And to think this guy has the right to vote.

  12. ReTARDIS says:

    This is so old. Five mp camera for $379? Come on!

    Oh yeah, and wrong animal.

  13. Lex says:

    “Four ex zoom.” I bet he doesn’t even know what that means.

  14. Walter says:

    THAT A BIG HORSE!

  15. Zoe says:

    It’s almost like he knew he f***ed up when he kind of pauses and goes “…that’s a big horse.” But he kept going anyway. DURRRRRR.

  16. woodsrider says:

    Magic mushrooms win!

  17. Nope not gonna tell says:

    Mmmmmmmm…horse. “You can’t fix stupid”

  18. Angell says:

    You can lead a horse to water….

    (except for that one)

  19. Art Vandalay says:

    Just imagine how boring the Kentucky Derby would be if that was a horse…

    “And their off. And all the horses are now gathered under a street lamp. Big Brown breaks away towards the bug lamp…OOOOOOH! And Big Brown pulls up. My gosh, he’s on fire!”

  20. Nix says:

    Look at those hooves!

    • You've Got Fail says:

      This was where the announcer began to suspect…that maybe his parents didn’t always tell the truth about things.

  21. katiee says:

    How many horses would you say could be classified as having “bushy” tails?

  22. Amanda says:

    This one actually made me laugh out loud. So excellent.

  23. cacapeepee says:

    first

  24. shoobeydoobey says:

    I am speechless… every day… more evidence that americans are in a constant competition with each other to see who is the dumbest. My 1 year old brother can make the difference between a moth/butterfly and a horse. This is unbelievable

  25. BigH says:

    That’s my horse!

  26. Wei says:

    In Soviet Russia, producer horses you.

  27. Anonyme says:

    HHHHHHHHHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA.

  28. megaloute says:

    Happily horses can’t fly. Just imagine what your car would look during flocks migration.

    (apologies if double posting)

  29. the b.p. says:

    So, if horses looked like this, races would be won by the lengths of the atennas?

  30. anonymous1234567890 says:

    Half-horse, half-butterfly.

  31. KC says:

    So I’m hung like a horse after all!

  32. james says:

    This is old.

  33. Ancient video. “KC” above, comment win.

  34. christie says:

    That was even funny.
    It looked so set up.

  35. Nathaniel says:

    Is it possible that it was like a bluescreen or a greenscreen (like what weathermen use) where he didn’t even know what it was at all?

  36. Tom says:

    Seventy-eighth!

  37. Some guy says:

    The camera may be able to show a lot of details, but apparently he can’t see that.

  38. woodsrider says:

    In Soviet Russia, they call moths “horses”. Just so you know.

  39. wolfkit says:

    …it may in fact be a moth.”

    Well duh – all butterflies are moths. Not all moths are butterflies however.

  40. Mina says:

    WHAT the HELL?!

  41. WilliamCA says:

    ROFLMAO. TOTALLY EPIC FAIL!! OMG how can one guy be so dumb? He didn’t even look at the pic to see what to was, his producer had to tell him. You have ot give him one small credit though, he did go on with out a stop!

    WilliamCA

  42. Fritriac says:

    Meh. Submitter FAIL.

  43. J says:

    My producer is telling me i’m an idiot.
    That would have been better ;)

    • another random guy says:

      I think the producer said “LOOK AT THE FREAKING PICTURE MORON!!!” hence the shocked pause

  44. larcho says:

    I bet he just simply reads everything from a teleprompter. I suppose these shows sell a lot of different products during the day so he simply gets into automatic mode and just straight reads everything from the teleprompter.

  45. Lk says:

    LOOP FAIL!

  46. Sorsha says:

    His mom must be so damn proud of him.

  47. #N/A says:

    I can’t fuck.

  48. Ellieth says:

    If it sounds like a moth, walks like a moth and looks like a moth… than it’s a horse!

  49. nopy says:

    Hmm, I think this wasn’t so much a mistake as a failed joke. He’s trying to say, wow, this picture is so freaking huge, it’s the size of a horse. Wait a minute, what’s that you say, producer-man? It’s a moth? Well, I’ll be damned! That’s an impressive 4 “ex” zoom!

    The joke is just so freaking stupid that it sounds like he’s just, well, stupid. So fail anyway.

  50. Khaaaaaaaan says:

    If it sounds like a “then”, walks like a “then” and looks like a “then”… THEN it’s a “THAN!”

  51. Justin says:

    What’s the big deal with being the first to comment on a topic? Does the magical intertubes fairy come flying out of your router and grant you a wish? And if so, why don’t you use that wish to not be an idiot?

  52. asdf says:

    SCHNEIDER LENS!!!

  53. RogueThree says:

    A butterfly is a butterfly, of course, of course.

  54. MatadorBID says:

    Can’t really blame him, he was probably up for 72 hours straight pushing that overpriced garbage!

  55. Carroll says:

    That’s not a horse, dummy…that’s a zebra!!! Come ON…DAMN! How obvious could it be?! ;-D

    And how he decided what were the tail and the hooves from that moth’s picture, we’ll never know!

  56. fhqwhgad says:

    they showed this on the Ellen DeGeneres show just recently

  57. LightDisciple says:

    This is worse than mistaking the moon for a UFO.

  58. goode says:

    4 X Zoom!

  59. Your Mom says:

    First :D

  60. Your Dad says:

    Second =D and I’m a big butterfly =D

  61. borkmadjai says:

    american are really stupid damnit !!!!!

    confuse horse with butterfly ? really ? common dude, go on the prairie to see..

    haha

    • RogueThree says:

      Mistakes are as follows.
      American is capitalized, not to mention that you forgot the “s”.
      One exclamation point is enough, even on the Internet.
      “confuse horse with butterfly?” is not a sentence.
      “Come on” is abbreviated “c’mon,” not “common,” which is the opposite of rare.
      Don’t forget complete lack of capital letters.
      I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that English is not your first language.
      If it is, you have no business calling us stupid.

  62. Lolcattus says:

    Jebus!! Its Mothra! GET IN THE CAR!!

  63. HSLD says:

    In Soviet Russia, moths are horses….and HSLD is me.

  64. fuzz on the concept says:

    I think it may in fact be half of a cat.

  65. Colinski says:

    WTF factor very high on this video.

  66. kelti says:

    i don’t care when this was first submitted, or how old the clip is, its hilarious! and before the Grammar Police get on my case, the “i” is left lower case on purpose….consider me a slightly more modern-day ee cummings

  67. Eduardo says:

    LMAO@Mothra comment XD

    but yeah,that must be a pretty damn big horse,i couldn’t even recognize it XD

  68. CTrax says:

    Horsefly?

  69. RayJ says:

    Oh. I thought it was a cow before the video corrected me.

  70. SolStrom08 says:

    Nice save at the end there i reckon… ’see what the camera did there, theres some nice detail on the antenna’. lol

  71. madison says:

    omg seriously?

  72. UKSponge360 says:

    The camera’s so good, he can’t tell if it’s a moth or a horse…

    Advertising FAIL

    And to the woman who said Americans are stupid, though I don’t agree with your methods, I often think the same thing

  73. Pumpkiny says:

    Ultimate phayle.

  74. JD says:

    That guy must be braindead. How stupid x]

  75. gruelin1 says:

    is this the stupidest man in the world?

  76. jordin says:

    Anyone who doesn’t realize that he knew it wasn’t a horse and was just playing along fails at humor.

  77. goro says:

    oh my , this guy is so stupid

  78. Captain Ensign says:

    A moth is a horse of course of course.

  79. Pr0fesser says:

    EVERY ONE ABOVE THIS POST IS gay.

    You guys down there, you alright.

  80. Anonymous says:

    Obviously the guy didn’t see it before setting it up there. And because you can’t see his face when he’s pointing to the “horse” to describe it… we don’t know if he’s still looking away from the actual picture.

  81. Andy says:

    *Phew* When I first saw it I thought they fused butterflies and horses. Scary moments right there.

  82. Jack says:

    Commenting on this site is a ring of fail. unless your in the first ten posts of everyone screaming FIRST like its going to matter in ten minutes, you get owned. If you post, someone makes a mockery of your life, and then their comment is insulted, and then the insulter’s is, and so on. So Failblog is Failing at comments.

  83. matty says:

    ^^ to such a fail reply from Jack, you could have made more burn effort. burn fail. anyone after this has failed too.

  84. ur a meatball says:

    nothing needs to be said about this moron…

    but maybe about you meatballs, instead of worrying who commented first on a god damn blog sites for nerds maybe you should be concerned about getting some other firsts out of the way, moving out of your parents house- or perhaps just loosing your virginity – then you wont have to worry about firsts anymore —- or maybe YOU will?

  85. tacocrap says:

    first.

  86. rez says:

    I didn’t think that butterfly looked like Julia Roberts.

  87. laura says:

    beautiful horse!! ¬¬

  88. Matt says:

    How did he escape the asylum !?

  89. Sam says:

    Oh my god that guy is retared

    a horse?!! ahahaha

  90. Matt says:

    My producer just told me this is a butterfly not a horse DEE DEE DEEEEEEEEEEEE

  91. meow says:

    You do realize he was making fun of whoever handed the photo to him right?

  92. bobby says:

    its a Pegasus.

  93. nincanta says:

    omg he took a pic of a horse and printed out a moth

  94. Balmung6 says:

    xD Didn’t he think to at least look at the pic at least once before announcing the details that aren’t even there? xDDD

  95. Ketenol says:

    IT’S PICKACHU!

  96. Ryo says:

    This guy wins the biggest douchebag of the century award. Why the fuck didn’t he look at what he was holding? Christ.

  97. Lets-make-salad says:

    Its rather obvious that he meant to say horseradish, but then forgot the radish, and then decided to go on with the joke. Gosh you people are thick.

  98. anon says:

    hell, he sold it to me.

  99. Zach says:

    He has to be looking right at the photo because he’s pointing at the head and body of the moth. Yet he just keeps going with horse.

  100. onerandomfail says:

    EPIC PHAIL

  101. Andrew says:

    First!

  102. syosm says:

    SCHNEIIIIDER LENSE

  103. The random Jack says:

    how the hell did he manage that?

  104. Sephius says:

    first

  105. Teknyka says:

    The audio portion about the camera specs are in the Disney movie UP, where the old man is sitting watching TV right before there is a knock at the door…

  106. JuuEi says:

    Yup, when you zoom into a horse too much you can see it looks like an butterfly with antennas.
    That’s what they really are.

  107. Poopydog says:

    Thats a might fine horse there : ]

  108. drdesignbmw says:

    Actually folks…I used to work for this company…and this guy knew exactly what he was doing….he was joking around trying to be funny. Was he successful…probably not, but he is not an idiot, I promise.

  109. fuzz on the concept says:

    Should we put classic posts from the future in the comments section?

    ht tp://failblog.org/2009/10/02/friday-rewind-animal-identification-fail/#comment-627808
