» 432 Failures in Communication

  1. Ryannon says:

    Fresh hot fail!

  2. John says:

    That’s not for real – it was running as an advert on theregister.co.uk a few months back.

    Still funny though.

  3. Kevin says:

    Well no shit

  4. Why would someone just happen to be filming it? 0_o

  5. Koias says:

    I am one of the first to comment on this fail!

  6. Simperin' Fool says:

    Steel cable: half the versatility of duct tape and twice the danger!

    • EtymologicalDisaster says:

      Do you really think you could demolish half as much real estate with a roll of duct tape?

  7. jkkjh says:

    oooooooooooooooold fail

  8. Duckman says:

    I love how the guy ducks and covers when the cable hits the glass, like he wasn’t expecting it to break.

  9. ALDAFOOC says:

    I was there, some guy named Josh died. RIP Josh, my thoughts are with your family and friends, what a horrible way to die.

  10. Blue2thFairy says:

    IMO, looks staged.

  11. abstract says:

    11ND ha, roflmfao

  12. Ryannon says:

    I bet the owner of the red car just hit their alarm button and went back to what they were doing all annoyed.

  13. Lulz says:

    Damn. . . Just. . . Damn.

  14. Cloral says:

    Tim-ber!

  15. mouserz says:

    The guy outside had balls of steel… or really shitty hearing.

  16. Bane of babies says:

    Aaaahhhh, that was brilliant.

  17. vuurflits says:

    It is just a commercial from microsoft (it is fake)

  18. chimmeychango says:

    point of interest, the building looks completely finished. thats a huge roll of cable, it really doesn’t belong in that building, even with a retro fit of something that would be far too much for any one floor, and it would be inefficient to lug such a beast around when you could carry multiple small rolls. my though is that it is indeed staged, and purposefully shot with a lower quality camera to lend a air of authenticity.

  19. DocM says:

    Gravity – we don’t need no stinking gravity.

  20. stevo says:

    the guy in the green vest’s reaction is hysterical.

  21. Dr Hugh says:

    New educational video. ‘How to open doors quickly’.

    • Admiral Apparent says:

      I think I found some music from this video…
      .
      You’ve been tellin’ me you’re a genius
      Since you were seventeen
      In all the time I’ve known you
      I still don’t know what you mean
      The weekend at the college
      Didn’t turn out like you planned
      The things that pass for knowledge
      I can’t understand
      .
      We are reelin’ in the tears
      That fail of yours, sublime
      Are you gatherin’ up careers
      You are truly asinine

  22. shleeba says:

    So fake. This was shot for a practical joke show about 6 years ago in Seattle. notice how the lardass fakes falling down.

  23. Cuttlefish says:

    If anyone cares, I’d just like to say “Hi!”. I am an avid FAIL Blog reader, keep up the good work LOL network and thanks for many ROFLs. I look forward to FAILing as much as the content of the pictures and videos.

  24. Cellulite says:

    Wov! All the glasses just blasted into zillion peaces, at first I thought it’s just going to be the doors..

    • titaniumspork19 says:

      Quick! Gather up those zillion peaces and ship them around the world! Don’t miss a single one, and don’t you dare reroute that Middle East shipment!

  25. Jill says:

    Could have been a “quick work win” if the goal was to get the roll down and loaded onto the red car.

  26. I saw this video years ago, so I’m guessing it’s before people staged viral youtubes.

  27. Salohcin says:

    Im still waiting for when we nuke each other to death while aliens are filming it.

  28. Cuttlefish says:

    I just feel sorry for the people moving the cable. If they stood below it as they tried to take it down the stairs, they could have won a Darwin award. Now all they have is unemployment.

  29. Svish says:

    Balance fail!

  30. rayui says:

    failblog fail.

    here is the microsoft advert in full: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ycGDVu4iEhQ

  31. Jonathan says:

    Lol…watch the guy right when the cable hits the door…lol

  32. Bryce says:

    There’s another video of this incident from a separate angle on Youtube. It’s called “Hilarious moving company accident!”

    To have one “accidental” filmer I might believe, but two? Probably staged…

  33. M@ says:

    It seems to me that the wire roll hits the glass door after the side windows shatter, but that’s just my opinion.

  34. Matt says:

    What a bunch of idiots.

  35. Lauren says:

    Reading the comments to Fail blog posts is as entertaining as the Fails themselves. You guys have sarcasm and wit down to an art. Quite admirable.

  36. Fallout says:

    and then I the road.

  37. ben says:

    haha yeah its a microsoft ad…

  38. Keelhaul says:

    Meh. I miss the old days, when the failboat was new and everything was photoshopped.

  39. Noobslaya says:

    *BANG* – That must have been really loud for that guy on the phone.. yet he didn’t move an inch when it passed through the door >.<

  40. Zurack says:

    What happened to my messages? THEY DISAPPEARED!

  41. Phaet says:

    Noone expected that to happen.

  42. thepowerofblue says:

    FAIL ‘er done!

    This was a definite “what the HELL were you thinking” moment. hahaha

  47. Mandi says:

    Awww damn….I’m parked outside D:

  48. Padfo says:

    What would that kind of cable drum do *indoors*? Must be staged.

  49. LOLUFAIL says:

    What a classic!

  50. Narc says:

    I love how the guy in the green vest covers his ears and subsequently falls over because of it.

  51. justeen says:

    Prometheus- modern day.

  52. John Do says:

    old VOIP commercial

  53. BcForCe says:

    LOL! FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 but Hilarius XD

  54. that guy says:

    haha, its great to see that the guy wearing the white shirt sitting down kind of lies back to enjoy the moment when the cables run down the stairs

  55. Kohdok says:

    It’s live-action Donkey Kong!!

  56. phil says:

    this one is fake, it was an adverd for a foreign company

  57. apco says:
