i see multiple shovels… digging on ice?
Who left the airco on?
My bad …but Void insisted it was too hot in the troll-hunt-o-mobile
so it’s really his fault.
No i left my Fire extinguisher on all night and it froze the whole country.
the car is fake…
I doubt the car is fake.
i doubt you doubt the car is fake
Probably to clear the snow around it, so as to keep footing, etc.
there is also a sledge hammer. Step 1: smash ice with sledge hammer. Step 2: scoop out broken ice with shovel. Step 3: Hoist the truck out with the crane.
“Mum, I had a little accident with your car”
It’s the newest offering from the producers of IceCapades.
I’ve missed you, cicili. Go on, say something irrelevant, please!
“Rednecks on Ice”…. on ice.
Do you see what I did there? Comic genius.
blue collar comedy tour could use a guy like you, mr.
funny story… see we were… and there was this…. because of the… yeah, ur car is gone
lol
I live 1 mile from where this happened. Hundreds of people drive across the river (Fairbanks, AK) to use it as a short cut….who would of thought that the ice would be so thin at -40ยบ? FAIL.
Yeah, we lived up North, and every winter/spring we’d get the lawn chairs and go down to the lake and watch the free-for-all: cars/trucks/4-wheelers, and ski-doos all in the drink, being craned out.

W’oah
Numidean
Like that couldn’t happen to a Toyota truck.
*rolls eyes*
I’m American… and I agree.
If only South Carolina was icy, I would swear I knew this person. Only here we accidenty our cars into perfectly visible lakes.
That’s my parking spot.
No no, that’s only if you want to get rid of your kids so you can be with your boyfriend who doesn’t like kids. It’s not an every day happening.
Itsa sink hole
Ahem *inserts disclaimer for the public record*
*Snort.*
We accidently do what?
Accidentally a Verb
This sentence a verb.
w00t on a fellow South Carolinian.
Nice bathyscaphe.
I cannot wait the documentary to be played on Discovery Channel; frozen fishes hiding in frozen algae and sneaking on smaller frozen fishes.
Hey Lou
I agree…definAtley looks like a bath escape!
And that is an anagram for beach spate!
.
Anyways I meant a bar scrape
you mean a farscape?
pI think you meant voir nape.
Sounds like a sour grape
*hands MikeyD the masking tape*
He’ll need that for the Vicar’s drape?
Your luggage is getting trashed by that ape.
It was only a humorous jape.
Still, we shoudn’t jape about primate rape.
You better watch out Jane Goodall has it all on tape.
not really a fail, this kinda stuff happens in parts of Alaska towwards the end of winter
โ Rhyming fail… cape
much better than butt gape
Hands Mookie the Duct Tape
My, we’re quite forward tonight…
Duct Tape is proper.
A Potato would be forward!
Mea culpa, and I stand corrected *smiles*.
Though, I thought a potato would be backward, silly me!
*titters*
Lou, something similar was on Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe. He was in Minnesota, I think. There’s a company that specializes in recovering vehicles that fall through the ice like that. So, it must happen a lot.
.
Here on the VA/NC border, people try to drive out on ice when we get it. They forget that it was 50 degrees the prior day, so the ice is all of a half inch think. Bunch of idiots, I tell ya!
Thanks for the explanation; I was inclined to think these guys were blissfully unaware of the law of unintended consequences.
*nods* coming form the land of 10,000 lakes in MN, yes, this does happen, and Mike Rowe did have a segment on it.
Yes, we do drive on ice.
Yes we also put houses on ice…
But some idiots don’t get that you need about 3 months of below zero weather before a lake can support a car… but then they do it anyone and inevitably fall through. f*ing morons really.
BTW they have to pay to get their car out of the lake and there are some steep fines too.
-_-
Really though we’re a little nuts up here, though we are a little eccentric…
^_^
Little nuts? Is that because of the cold?
Actually, this was taken in Fairbanks. And it had been that cold. The reason he was an idiot is that he left the packed trail that folks had been driving on for several weeks successfully already. Basically he was about 20 feet off from where he needed to be.
Also he didn’t pay a dime because it was a company vehicle. So Win.
*answers phone*
What! The Wiggles are in trouble!
Hahahahaha. Oh, I so hope they are.
I think the driver’s got the Blue Wiggle.
They need help, best call Biggles!
If I were in that water, my Wiggle would be blue, too!
I had the Red Wiggle, but it’s all better now.
That Yellow Wiggle seems smaller than the others…
No. The others are standing on blocks. I’m all wiggled out. Fin.
…and Big Andre gets banned from riding shotgun…
Darned potholes! I’m getting a lawyer!
May I recommend Mookie? She never charge me… in money.
Takes it out in trade? I like a good barter.
No, he just makes frequent deposits into my account.
So he’s earning your com’pound interest?
He has access to her tangible assets.
cool, the car floats
I tooold ya that hole’d needa be dug two feet deeper ta ditch the evidence…
*Checks map*
I KNEW there was supposed to be a lake around here somewhere!
*singing*
Ice, ice, baby!
โช You never close your ice anymore when I… โช
You’re as cold as ice,
you’re willing to sacrifice. . .
(clicky…time for a nice one…)
โช Her hair is Harlowe gold,
Her lips sweet surprise,
Her hands are never cold,
She’s got Bette Davis ice… โช
LOL, love that song! When I was a kid I thought the words were ’she’s got better days to fly’…
There was a guy at my office in Florida from Italy and he was sure the Eurythmics song went something like “Sweet Jesus, Maitre D” so we put together an entire song with Jesus and restaurant options to that song.
Hahaha! That’s my ringtone, now I’ll always think of food when my phone rings.
Sweet jesus, maitre d’, is that a cucumber or are you just pleased to see me?
Sweet Jesus Maitre D
Who wants to sit in section C?
Will you have the red wine
How about some parmesan cheese
.
And on it went. About 10 of us got involved in the lyrics all because I heard Ted singing to himself those first important words.
When I was young I used to run around singing “Sweet Dreams are made of cheese” according to me mam.
But all boys dreams are made of cheese of a sort. It’s only natural
I prefer something tasty, matured, and with a little bite!
Who am I to disagrease?
Travelled the world with a pack of peas.
Everybody’s looking for dumplings.
My son used to run around singing “Hush hush, keep it down now, this is Gary” and argued till he was blue in the face that it wasn’t “voices carry”, he’s 20 now and I still pick at him about it.
That’s an inspired lyric!
*takes a bow*
…some of them want to chew you…
. . .some of them want to be chewed by you. . .
…some of them want to excuse you…
some of them want to be brewed by you.
Some of them want to be bruised by you.
…groove with me…
*plays for third time*
Man I haven’t heard that one in a while, brought back some good memories, thanks DrB
YW
I’ts “Sheโs got Bette Davis EYES”, not ice…
Song lyrics fail!
Haha, that made me laugh.
getting the joke fail
“The ice is thin come on dive in”
That’s the last time I use mapquest…..
So much for the TomTom, eh?
I prefer bongos myself.
I would choose castanets for adding some local flavor.
I’m thinking that a little guiro action would add to the sound.
Here near Motown we just play the stolen hubcaps.
Y’all have hubcaps in MI? I see pieces of wood cut in circles on tires here in AR.
I can’t wait to visit. I’m just waiting for the last of my teeth to fall out.
They have teeth in AR, just not as many as everyone else and they don’t all point in the same direction.
Mmm… add a lazy eye to that package and I’m sold.
Dont let Ry fool ya, they have teeth, it just depends on what day of the week it is and if any of them have doctors appointments or need to go to town to they go and borrow them from grandma.
And may I just add – “EWWWWWW!”
Only if they had the gumption to try it Judy.
Dagnabbit, you aren’t supposed to tell the secrets.
What in tarnation are you jawin’ about?
“Turn right! Turn right now!”
“But there’s a lake there!”
“It’s saying to turn right! Maybe it knows a shortcut we don’t!”
+5 points to whoever knows what show that comes from (and no, I probably don’t have the dialog exactly right)
The Office!
This almost looks like something you’d expect to see on Mythbusters
Alaska Week story 1: “Dynamite Dog”
Ooooh. I like your thinking!
I meant that Mythbusters has already done that story. Much as I’d like to claim credit for “thinking”, I can only claim a measly “memory” credit.
Now, that’s just COLD man…
Are they really gonna crane that dude?
Yes, it’s Ralph Macchio, he excels at the crane kick.
I’m pretty sure that frigid water and ice will take the wax off.
This is what happens when you gear your car up for ice and end up driving on frozen water. Tch.
Car: Help, I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!
Chill man!
I like how they remembered putting the cones on the ice. Hurray for safety and visibility.
lol! As if the giant crane wasnยดt visible enough.
aw man, the guy I bought this from told me I could drive on ice with it! What a sham!
Ice should have load capacity on it just like elevators. Clearly this is a 4 ton vehicle driving across a 2 ton capacity ice. Laws are their for your safety!
Well, arenโt you just a ton of fun.
ARE YOU SAYING I’M FAT????? *sniffle* I’m just big boned. It’s the jeans!
No no no, I meant your a load of. . .
I mean a barrel
wait, no, a huge amount of
no. . .I mean. . .
I love you?
So what else does the box say?
–The box says, “Shut up, Steve.”
i’ve never been ice fishing, but i don’t think you’re supposed to use a truck…or at least park it so close
That depends on what you’re ice fishing for.
I actually prefer Ice Hunting.
First you quietly stalk your prey across the snowy ground, when you’re very very close you freeze until just the right moment, then you jump out with your trusty pick and stab it right between the Ice!
Icy what you did there
Ummmm… You missed.
ice ink the car sank
Hehe, this pic is from my hometown of Fairbanks, Alaska. This took place on an ice road that’s used in the winter to cut down on driving time from a fringe neighborhood to the business district…unfortunately the driver wandered about five feet off of the marked road and, well, you can see the results. The road is used by many people every winter, usually without any mishaps like this one. My suggestion for visitors wanting to do some offroading in Fairbanks is that they choose a more ideal location than on top of the Chena River!
If the consequences of five feet of the road look like that, I donยดt think I will come offroading.
Well, dad, you see, there was this … water pool, and everything was fine until…
There was a cabin on the other side of the lake and I was called there to fix their air conditioning, the road was snowed out and I took the ‘path of least resistance’ to get there. My ladders sank to the bottom of the lake. i tried to save them, but my leg just froze up! Then I gaot cold feet, this is why I spend most of my life in a wheel chair. I lost the customer’s business, the ended up dying from heat exposure. I later tried selling the truck and tools, but there was too much rust depriciation. Now I can’t pay for the crane OR the wheelchair!
*Puts hat on floor and plays violin*
*listens to sad story and melancholic tune, blinks away tear, erratically puts on violin player’s hat and wanders off in fog*
HEY! Come back! The only penny I peddled is in there!!!!
After this I’ve decided I don’t want to carpool anymore.
Good thing they put out cones so the other traffic would know to go around.
Now that made me LOL!
Ice Fishing – you’re doing it wrong.
I was so going to say that.
Nice avvy, is for remembrance?
No, don’t you remember this? (clickie)
Oh dear god!
Oh thank god, now I can lose my virginity again and again and relive that wonderful, magic moment. Complete with blood! Yippee!
Don’t forget the chafing from the sheepskin seat covers and the stickshift jabbinb into your shoulder blade.
Jabbinb? Is that some kind of Arabic name?
Sweet Jesus! What kind of link is that????? *says a rosary*
Nesting fail?
Hehehe…Let’s just say that link was an eye-opener
for me too when you said good morning! Resting fail, mayhap?
Hehehe
That was, and I choose my words carefully, a shocker, Ryannon.
Sweet Jesus, indeed.
More like Sweet Baby Jesus, Maitre D’
And who am I to disagree?
Do they provide that service too? Fantastic. If you pay extra can they make the guy come prematurely? The experience just wouldn’t be complete without that.
I remember every little thing as if it happened only yesterday. . .
We were parking in the lake and there was not another car in sight…
Sorry to disillusion you about your wedding night, hombre.
Nice new avatar Mookie.
Is that the Cherry 2000?
Hehe, made in Japan. Shipped from China.
Whoops! Now THAT would be enough to ruin yer day wouldnt it!

Ice Road Trucker wannabee — FAIL.
I think he nailed the truck part
And also nailed the “Ice” part.
The “Road” part — not so much.
But (earworm alert) “Two out of three ain’t bad.”
Doing this will keep my computer temperature cool?
I think it’s sick how you fuc*ers can joke about this. If paganpunk2 is right about where this took place, it really is easy to get turned arround out there, and terrifying. How would you feel if that happend to you? Now they have to walk in the cold (cold enough to freeze a huge lake to ice thick enough to drive on) assuming they could even get out of the truck, try not to get lost again, try not to get frostbite…etc.
And clearly, the ice WASN”T thick enough to drive on.
hey, at least i’d be on failblog!
WOOT!
Not to worry Abstract. If this happened while we were driving together I would kill and eat you first. That should sustain me long enough for help to arrive.
.
Come to think of it, if we had a flat tire in a service station I would still kill and eat you first, just to be on the safe side.
lol!! you just made my day:-) my boyfriend always says the same thing.
*Snickers.*
*M & Ms.*
yes, I’m orriginally from upstate NY, seen a lot of bad shi7 experienced it too.
What about the family in the car?
originally on englishrussia, old.
I say leave the truck there. It’s the perfect ice breaker.
Looks like the crane driver had his camera with him.
Coincidence? I don’t think so.
This isn’t that crazy actually. People drive their pickups on the ice all the time in Maine. Its pretty common.
Hooray! They managed to get the crane far enough out onto the ice to reach the car, so now they can…uh oh…
Here’s the rest of the story for the folks who want it.

FAIL-MOBIL AWE….um, on moment, it appears the fail mobile has failed
This is a win. It takes skill to make it fall sideways.

“Avery Thomas and Dave Dishneau work to secure straps from a crane hook to a submerged utility truck Monday afternoon, Dec. 22, 2008, on the Chena River in Fairbanks, Alaska. The vehicle’s multiple occupants escaped unharmed after breaking through thin ice near Pike’s Landing the previous night. (AP Photo/Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, Johnny Wagner)”
Another victim of global warming
Hey! Faribanks made it on Failblog! That happened this winter. Made it in the Daily News Miner and all that, awesome!
So did your little spelling fail! Awesome times two, dude!!
When the ice is thin
Prudent ones will save their skin
Only fools fall in
What’s more amusing to me is that, at least here in Minnesota, people drive campers out on the lakes in winter. Like 30 foot fully stacked RV’s, because an ice house is just too small, apparently. A truck is one thing, they’re pretty lightweight. But a RV? In 2003 we saw one that was left on the ice too long sink. It was sad for the owners that they were not clever enough to pull it off when the days got above freezing, sure… but pretty damn funny to see a big ass RV slowly sink into a lake, too. I wish I had a camera…
wasn’t this an episode of dirty jobs?????
how is that a fail? it happens all the time in minnesota…on the news constantly! people die of that 2…falling in i mean.
*hides*
*chuckles to self*
They’ll never find me here.
Gotcha!
No fair!

LOL
ICE: hit the clutch!!!
The Truck Does Not Look Real XD
OMG! they discovered the fossil of a car buried in the ice!
He should have tried 4 wheel drive.
did the driver have time to get out?
