    First comment!

  3. Piny says:

    I dont get it.

  4. bumsie says:

    rofl´?

  5. FailCat says:

    I see it’s a boat but I fail to see how this fails.

  6. Tomme says:

    Dude, it doesn’t work…

  7. Bjorn Johansson says:

    well it floats, that can’t be said about the other failboats :)

  8. Sadly says:

    Sigh, I clicked on the link when there were no comenters. Curse the image!

  9. FailCat says:

    Spelling “ever” fail?

  10. Justin says:

    wait, that’s a table isn’t it?

  11. Ben says:

    mike and mster = ‘FIRST’ FAIL

  12. Admiral Apparent says:

    He Excels with tables. If the motor gives out, he can row to shore.

  13. Ringo says:

    Floaters = FLO213RS

    Well, kinda…

  14. Victoria says:

    Cheap Christmas present Winboat?

  15. wocka says:

    Buy fake viagra online! $400 per dose

  16. Chud says:

    The real fail is the upturned speedboat in his dining room acting as a table…

  17. You've Got Fail says:

    Water table…
    yr doing it rong

  18. rick says:

    in virginia, at least, this is the law. anything that goes in a body of water that has a motor must be licensed and clearly display the license number. the commonwealth needs those tax dollars!

  19. rdx86 says:

    That’s definitely a Winboat!

  20. capt. awesome says:

    Who leaked Anpu’s secret battleship design into the tubes? You shouldn’t be seeing this, for you all live in the internet.

    • Lunchbox says:

      Damn, and all this time I thought it was a yellow submarine!

    • ZillaBelle says:

      Yes, everyone, now that you’ve seen, we’re afraid you must die.

      Wait, Anpu? Like Egyptian mythology? Hold on everyone, apparently you’ve all been drafted into the undead mummy brigade. Standby for orders.

  21. Keevin Prince says:

    I often wondered what happened to the table from out front of the Pro Bass Shop. LOL

  22. croatan says:

    photoshop

  23. Heather says:

    SO what the fail? It floats!

  24. PM says:

    Fail? Are you kidding? It has lights and registration, better than the original Redneck Express! http://funnies.com/newjunefunnypics/Redneck_Boat.jpg

    • Chewy says:

      man…that is the exact picture that started this whole idea…made some modifications and soon youll see a 70 yr old man water skii behind it, just have to work out a few bugs!!!

  25. Jack says:

    FLO213RZ? i dont get it

  26. ryannon says:

    That “boat” is in a canal in Florida. Now he can go make tons of money bringing 43 Cubans at a time over to the US. The Coast Guard will never suspect a table.

  27. Pants says:

    I hate people who cry photoshop as much as the next person…but it has to be xD there’s no way it would float so daintily like that. But it’s still full of epic and win

  28. Rob says:

    I completely missed the fact it was a table…

  29. Contrary to popular belief, this failboat is actually a Transformer.

  30. Farsight says:

    All i see in This Picture is Win!

  31. jama says:

    not so much .

  32. Mrs_Z says:

    Oh, sit right back and you’ll hear a Fail,
    A Fail of a fateful trip,
    That started from this tropic port,
    aboard this tiny ship…

  33. Kyoki says:

    … how do you register that?

    “Make and Model of Watercraft: Chippendale.”

  34. Mary Kate says:

    FIRST!!!!!1111eleven

  35. dave says:

    Personally I call this an epic win

  36. czuhc says:

    Can’t you all see it’s a MENSA member on his way to a meeting ? Clearly none of you are a member.

  37. Bod says:

    That is a perfectly practical picnic boat.
    I would quite like one of those.

  38. czuhc says:

    One Man in a Boat.

  39. czuhc says:

    Best Failboat Eve. Arr !

  40. Drayuh says:

    Obviously it’s photoshopped. The sun is shining on the dudes back, that is why his face is in shadow. If you look at the table legs, the shadows are on the left which doesn’t make sense if the sun was shining from that direction. DUH.

    • modervador says:

      Understanding of large white object in direct sunlight leading to shorter exposure time thus darkening of face fail.

    • Lilith says:

      Sunlight recognition fail. Look at the shadows of the arms or of the basket handle, they indicate that the sun is shining down almost vertically.

    • Blackup says:

      Did you do a pixel density test? No? Then shut up.

    • MissLace says:

      What you are calling a table leg shadow appears to actually be the shadow of his arm, which is hanging onto a rope, attached to the front leg.

    • AndrewYY says:

      No. The sun’s from directly above (look at the cast shadow) That’s why the man’s skin has the same shadows as the table, and the man’s face is in shadow (the shadow of his head)

    • Sabriand says:

      Um, would be correct if the sun wasn’t near directly overhead. The shadow on the picnic basket is from the handle of the basket. His face has light on it, although it only illuminates the more protuberant areas, with the cant of his head that would make sense if the sun was only slightly off being directly overhead. But sure, duh all you want I guess.

    • People are so quick to call something “shopped”. Shop some where they sell fail cake or I can gladly give you a slice.

    • Chewy says:

      OBVIOUSLY…your a moron…look closer at the picture…you dont believe me send your email, and ill send ya a video!!! BTW learn photoshop!!!..lol

    • Ash says:

      The sun’s shining on his arm, look at the shadow, idiot.

    • blossomawesome says:

      dude, look at the picnic basket! the shadow is directly over it, meaning that the sun had to have been high in the sky- probably in midday. If the sun was directly above him, it wouldn’t get in his face. DUH.

  41. Ashley says:

    Hmm… considering its actually floating, I dont see the fail… unless it is actually photochopped. >.>

  42. aniljayakumar says:

    Ain’t a failure until he’s alive.. ! It seem’s he still afloat..!

    Actually, I didn’t understand whether it was a table..

  43. Mookie says:

    “Courage!” he said, and pointed toward the land,
    “This mounting wave will roll us shoreward soon.”

  44. czuhc says:

    Epic fail ! On a whale hunt, with neither lance nor harpoon ?

  45. First says:

    Im first!HA!

  46. czuhc says:

    Blogmonster is eating my comments. :-(

  47. Sarah Palin says:

    Hey, i made a boat like that for my other son. Used it as a moose catcher. Worked like a charm =)

  48. czuhc says:

    ”No wait!! Is that a piranah in your pants or are you just happy to see me ?”

  49. bopalo says:

    powers of observation fail –> i didn’t notice he was on a table until i read the comments. d’oh.

  50. behka says:

    how romantic.

  51. Danny says:

    Floaters?

    Nice boat.

  52. modervador says:

    OK, maybe enough time has elapsed to allow a spoiler. Do a google image search on “tableboat.jpg” and you’ll see copies of a photo that originated from a publicity stunt that Mercury Outboards did in the early-mid 1960s. Right now I can’t find the original source, though I seem to recall the caption said something like “Mercury outboards can put anything on plane, even the kitchen table.”

    The grey outboard in this failblog photo is likely the Mariner brand, manufactured by Mercury Marine. The outboard is chained to the transom–safety first! The fuel line extends from the outboard forward along the starboard side of the “boat”, but the fuel tank is not visible very likely because it is inside the picnic basket.

    • modervador says:

      Ability to notice that my comment was on the second page, thus was not lost after all, FAIL. Reposted comment being better than the original WIN.

  54. Supernado says:

    His car is a radiatior on wheels

  55. Thriller says:

    Resourcefulness win imo

  56. Phaet says:

    What does Fl0213rz mean?? Stupid 1337 language…

    • modervador says:

      It means “I failed to refresh my page and read previous comments.”

      Or, it’s what Fat Bastard left when he ejected the tracking device.

    • WaitWaitDontTellMe says:

      *whispers* It’s all a clever trick to make us feel stupid. It has no meaning beyond identifying the “boat” for registration purposes. It resembles 1337 but it ain’t.

      • modervador says:

        “The prefix and suffix must be separated from the numerals by a space equal to the width of the digits, i.e., FL 0001 AB.”

        “A decal signifying the year during which the registration certificate is valid will be issued with each registration certificate. The decal must be displayed on the port (left) side of the vessel.”

        improper letter number spacing + No valid decal = boat not really registered
        = made-up registration number
        = probably is attempted 1337

        • modervador says:

          Me noticing from my own quoting of the FL DMV rules that the sticker would not be present on the starboard side of a boat registered in FL: FAIL.
          Krazee floridians; every other state I’ve boated in had registrations stickers for both sides of the boat.

  57. Nelson666 says:

    PIE!!!!!

  58. Snappyspudd says:

    I like the red and green navigation lights. I’d call this boat a win.

  59. gps93 says:

    he licensed his table as a watercraft…

  60. asd says:

    Oh wow, I think this could be the best FAIL I’ve ever seen.

  61. Frosty says:

    I’m just waiting for the front to dig in. Then the real fun starts. *Malevelent Smirk*
    ~Frosty.

  62. Gone2thedogs says:

    See this page for example:

    http://failblog.org/vote/page/23/

    Will the community announcement fail and age appropriate toy fail ever come out of voting limbo?

  63. fullclip says:

    Dad?

  64. Ahmed says:

    How the heck is this a fail?
    I’d day this is an epic turning-common-household-objects-into-cool-stuff win

  65. raoul duke says:

    Economical win?

  66. themakerofshoes says:

    proof of concept WIN!!!

  67. Whut? says:

    This boat is not nearly as cool as the Roflcopter. Didn’t need to say anything though, everyone knew that! Amirite?

  68. scornflakes says:

    The real issue here is water displacemat.

  69. eeeee says:

    its his boat registration number guys florida 13rz

  70. Pauly says:

    This is more of a Coffee Table Win. But he should have added a nose to the front so it can cut through the water, it must buck up a lot. It is a total buck up.

  71. sdm says:

    It actually looks cool XD

  72. Lol says:

    The failness in this is probably the number, because a real boat has a name, this has a name like boats.lol

  73. jess says:

    worst. photoshopping. ever.

  74. seannnnnn11 says:

    What does the number have to do with it im failing at getting the fail

  75. Erin says:

    its not photo shopped. my cousin (the one in the pic) has a ton more photos that ive seen. yes, its really registered as a boat in the state of florida and it is a dining room table. In retrospect, i could’ve come up with a better caption, but i didn’t expect it to make it anywhere honestly.

  76. Jrod says:

    My posts aren’t working

  77. h says:

    It’s not a fail. The boat works perfectly well, nothing is going wrong in the picture.

    Yet another FAIL FAIL.

  78. Failz0r says:

    First!!!!!!!111eleventy1

  79. Topher says:

    Some of you are referring to it as if it’s a possible registration number. IT’S A TABLE, UPSIDE-DOWN, WITH A MOTOR. Obviously the reg number was painted on there as a joke.

  80. BoneyKingNowhere says:

    I just can’t call this a fail with all the success going on in this picture. This man is a champion of survival.

  81. vikingwarbrides says:

    Are you kidding? That is obvioulsy a Florida boat registration! Hey if it floats, our government wants to tax the daylights out of it!

  82. Katelyn says:

    Is it odd that I didn’t notice it was a table until someone mentioned it :|

  83. HeyNow says:

    The best part are the navigational lights on the tables legs… it’s seaworthy!!

  84. Boris says:

    He may look silly, but this is win. He turned a table and an outboard motor into a successful boat. Not a good boat, but it seems to be doing the job. Perhaps if it were a video of it capsizing or something, then it could qualify as fail.

  85. eric says:

    Is that a tide table?

  86. scornflakes says:

    Redneck Coast Guard Win.

  87. Kath says:

    Awesome, I want one!

    *runs to dining room*

  88. reinholt says:

    worst fail ever to be shown on this site :(

  89. ohlol says:

    FIRST!

  90. dashi says:

    i’m sorry, but this is the most epic win i’ve ever seen

  91. po0dle99 says:

    It’s not fail, it requires skill to build such thing

  92. kittehkat says:

    i srsly dun get it… could someone explain???

  93. sad thing is… I know a guy whos done something similar to this

  94. dazmo says:

    There are fish under the boat that think they are zombie food.

  95. WMDKitty says:

    What the floating fuck?

  96. derpty derp says:

    For the love of God, will someone PLEASE explain the following:

    1) What is a 1337?
    2) Why do you think the registration number spells “Floaters?” Becaus, at best, it looks like “Floatiers,” and therefore makes no sense as a fail, a win, or any other thing.

    Tank yew.

    • titaniumspork19 says:

      1. Please click “Show All Comments”.
      2. Stare at the humongously long nest of comments near the top that detail the answers to those questions.
      3. Thank you.

  97. failmaster says:

    “Where’s the picnic table, honey?”

    “It sank.”

  98. larwick says:

    I took ages staring at the circled text on the side trying to figure out how it failed or was funny, until i realised it was a table. Goddamn.

  99. Alfre says:

    Comment 666 :D

  100. JasonK says:

    For anyone that STILL cannot get it, here is a community offer from beloved Captain Obvious:

    “The boat is a table.”

    • derpty derp says:

      Yes. I see the table. Thank you. But why are the numbers circled? Is it because the OP thinks it hilariously funny that a table would have registration numbers painted on? If so, humor fail.

      And I still don’t know what a 1337 is. Chalk it up to advanced age.

  101. PiBo says:

    traulin fer leaches

  102. Soulcrun says:

    Is it supposed to mean Flotlerz?

  103. Jeff Blythe says:

    Failblog FAIL
    it’s spelled EVER!!!!!!!!!!

  104. Mooooooo says:

    fl0213rz seems to mean floats, i think, if anyone wanted a translation.

  105. GMIK says:

    Gary’s Mod in real life = fail.

  106. Advent-Omega says:

    …700th comment!

  107. bababooboo says:

  113. scofield says:

    a piano…

  114. scofield says:

    should be a real fail down there underwater

  115. haha… i think half the people here have no idea about the significance of the 1337 on the side.

  116. Jarrad says:

    Nice table mate.

  117. adsf says:

    Flosberz? what the hell does that mean?

  118. Nicholas Gazin says:

    How is this a fail? He literally turned the tables on failure and is off to have a picnic.

  119. Lucas Hooey says:

    what kind of a great thiniking man would sit at a dinner table thinking, ‘hmmm, i wonder if i could turn this into a boat.’ what a genius. no failure here, just pure genius.

  120. LAWLMODE says:

    “EVAR”….? FAILBLOG FAILPOST…fucking idiot.

  121. JTP says:

    But…

    There’s no gas tank.

  122. ctina says:

    CLearly, he is on his way to a picnic. he has a basket and everything. and now he’s agot an eating surface, and a ride home.

  123. Ansha Wednesday says:

    i wouldnt say this is a fail… this looks like a win to me. it floats, its registered, and its a helluva lot cheaper!

  124. ur mom says:

    omgrofllolzlmao

  125. Junker says:

    This FAIL Picture is a FAIL…Trying to state that FL0213RZ=Floaterz…Doesn’t even know how to do 1337 speak…

  126. funkif1ed says:

    are you kidding me?! that’s an epic win.

  127. =Duncan= says:

    I was to busy looking at the Flo213Rz thing to notice that he’s sailing on a table >.>, clap clap clap

  128. PigHam says:

    winboat

  129. stephen says:

    this is not even a fail!! his boat is awesome!

  130. Thrillinator says:

    thats a redneck for you.

  131. jack? says:

    looks like a win to me. he has a boat, and something to set his coffee on

  132. Anynonomous says:
  133. dawningbeauty says:

    well, whatever floats your boat

  134. Rawr says:

    It says “Floaters” in 1337 lol thats the joke

  135. John says:

    That’s a WIN!

  136. iknowthatguy says:

    That isn’t shopped. It’s real and is really registered. I’ve seen him in it on the canal that runs next to southern blvd. in west palm beach. He also has a unicycle bolted to a blank of wood that he rides like a water ski.

  137. WEs says:

    the guys ridin on a table and has a # for it when its a table its not that hard

  138. JuuEi says:

    That’s one damn cool boat! :D

  139. cheeseburker says:

    that looks like fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    lol

  140. FLO213RZ says:

    Yes, it is a Florida license plate.
    However, it also is 1337 for FLOATERS. Why?
    FLO = FLO
    2 = @ (Shift-2)
    1 = t (1337 is LEEt turned 180)
    3 = E
    R = R
    Z = S
    FLO213RZ = FLOATERS

  141. Shalom says:

    The significance of the letters/numbers, which no one has been able to correctly figure out, is this: those letters/numbers mean this “boat” is registered. It is funny because that means that this “boat” was actually held to some sort of seagoing standards and passed, thus having a registration number.
    Hello!

  142. O RLY says:

    £υηçhþöχ

  143. dilettante says:

    No, don’t! Wrong one. Some horrible person remixed over the sketch.
