  1. Eman says:

    It doesn’t fail. You obviously jump from a shorter height, thus increasing the chances you’ll survive the fall. Try aiming for the trees.

  2. MrDan says:

    Why did they even bother building the stairs ?

    Funny for suicide candidate though :
    Someone diving from the roof could first hit the railing and then get impaled in a tree.

    F
    ..A
    ….I
    ……L

  3. Agnus says:

    third

  4. And of course, photoshop fail.

  5. Pejter says:

    Looks like standard view from Poland (I know, because I’m Polish).

    Here’s the story:
    They spent too much money on improvements of this neighborhood like painting the houses and planting trees, so they ran out of it to install necessary protection facilities (i.e. fire escape).

    Couple of years later (judging by the size of trees and dirtiness of the building) the money is still not there to be used for the fire stairs.

    Sad? Yup, I know. So – I guess you can call it long-run economic fail ;-)

    • Roo says:

      How much does it cost to build a slide?

    • radaner says:

      I agree, I’m Polish too…
      Poland is full of great fails… For instance president Kaczynski ;)

      • Pejter says:

        I agree, he is and has a large fail on his account. On the whole, all Polish politicians and their activities are very much likely to be considered a fail.

        Nonetheless, besides the politics we also have a big spectrum of fails in other fields and industries.

        PM – Niestety nie można bÄ™dzie tutaj podać żadnego, bo te typy nic nie zrozumiejÄ… i znowu siÄ™ zacznÄ… rzucać o to, że strona jest tylko angielska i niech wszyscy siÄ™ uczÄ… tego jÄ™zyka. – PM end.

    • Vagabond says:

      …. why would they build from the top down?

  6. Guru says:

    It is a safety feature for the windowcleaners! When they dangle on the front of the building an a hurrican hits their platform will be swept around the corner where they can use the stairs to get into the building and into safety… I’m surprised you didn’t see the logic… !

    I think its a safety first win… a bit like overdoing it with 50 a day!

  7. F3nNec says:

    I luv thiz FAIL! DX
    (if mai com repitz, FAIL)

  8. Lord Dragon Claw says:

    Is this really a fail? At least your burning corpse will be slightly more identifiable once it splatters all over the pavement.

  9. someone says:

    theres probably some soft-ass grass below

  10. Thaluikhain says:

    Well, it looks like a fire escape fail…but it could be a split level balcony win. Or something.

  11. Jukov says:

    Fake. Look better, the staircase was erased with Photoshop.

  12. cacapeepee says:

    FIRST!!!

  13. MettanAtem says:

    They just didn’t complete it. That’s all!

  14. Dude says:

    Extreme Free Running win!

  15. Tear Here says:

    I don’t get the fail, I see a perfectly viable escape route here. Once you get to the bottom platform, you obviously unleash the magic faster-than-light pony next to the railing and fly off into the sunset.

    • ClickClick says:

      Oh, come on! How did they get their hands on our top secret faster-than-light flying pony technology, hun? Riddle me that!

  16. Hunh says:

    Fire escape FAIL
    Secret passage to cute neighbor’s apartment WIN

  17. GoDHoRuS says:

    sounds like a good idea!

    • bonocat says:

      maybe it’s a security thing, it won’t allow access to people who want to sell stuff or rob the place.

      • brinnann says:

        Solicitor prevention WIN!

        Can I get one of these for my office?

      • K says:

        If they spent enough money to build a little staircase for the sole purpose of saying “f*** you” to salesmen and potential robbers, don’t you think the joke would be on them? After all, you could get the same effect by installing door locks and a keypad…

  18. HavUTheenMaWeena says:

    Bridge to nowhere!

  19. Funky says:

    It’s totally photoshopped.

  20. Bob Sacamano says:

    ZOMG! the cloud on the upper right!!!! FAILCLOUD!!!!!

  21. Karen says:

    All of you are missing the point completely! The top floor has a balcony which is obviously where the owner of the building lives. He’s just quit smoking and has the lower level of that stairway as the designated smoking area for his guests. It’s not currently being used because he just realized that the smoke will still float up to the balcony and cause his cravings to return.

  22. Uhtred of Bebbanburg says:

    and she’s buying a stairway to Heaven…. on the installment plan.

  23. Andy says:

    I’m just glad I don’t live there.

  24. missy miss says:

    well isnt that HELPFUL!!

  25. AllaNET says:

    BIG PRIVATE BALCONY WIN!!! :-)

  26. pabble says:

    There’s probably one of those metal drop ladders that unroll in case of a fire, otherwise it would be easy for robbers to get in through there.

  27. SandyK says:

    What, did the building GROW unexpectedly? I’d say it’s time to stop watering that Foundation :P

  28. SandyK says:

    What, did the building GROW unexpectedly? Seriously, I think it’s time to stop watering that foundation :P

  29. Julian says:

    This is actually not a fail. The lower platform on this (peculiar looking) construction can be reached by the fire brigade’s ladders, the upper platform can’t. So you can get all people out of the upmost floor via this stair.

  30. lol says:

    First!

  31. Jay says:

    Lol. I Actually know an exit like this too..

  32. missy miss says:

    IT WILL BE OK! JUST JUMP! OH, AND TRY NOT TO DIE!!

  33. nucking futs says:

    this made me think… why are fire escapes never retractable slides? it would be faster for people to get down, putting them in less danger, and you wouldn’t have to worry about burglars like you would with stairs

  34. Gibzen says:

    Dont Get it? is it unstable or is it coz it leads to a wall?

  35. Gibzen says:

    i think i see the mothman

  36. DC says:

    It’s so obvious… the average person can survive a 3-story fall, but not 4. I must get back to studying for my building-safety inspector license.

  37. LOLS says:

    i kno a clown named skittles and he gave me a picsa of dis place… hes a scary cloo

  38. Brishtonikcisk says:

    In my country emergency exits only have to go as far down, as the ladder from the firefighters car can get up, so it’s a common look…

  39. YAY!!!!!!!! This is going to be fun!!!!!

    No really I think i’d rather burn

  40. DADDY says:

    FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  41. Gman says:

    Why does it remind me of Tetris?

  42. Gretgor says:

    It’s a leap-of-faith emergency exit, LOL.
