I’m part of a group of gamers that call themselves “Safety Third” — and this was the inspiration. Thank you, FAIL Blog!

Somebody had to tell, too many ppl crying fake…

the answer we always give to the question “What are numbers 1 and 2?” is “Whatever you want, just safety 3rd”

Some of your guesses were good and some were incredibly stupid, but I’ve actually heard the saying “Safety 3rd” – here’s the rest of it:
God 1st
Ladies 2nd
Safety 3rd

That sign was probably at a church or something.

very nice!
particularly as it could well explain the near death (Hamster) and the repeated (temporarily?) crippling back injuries (Jezzer). wonder what’s in store for Captain Slow?

Maybe it’s the concept that fails since we’ve been taught “safety first”.

But it’s not always first. The phrase should read “acceptable risk first.”

Yep, it’s not a fail, it’s a real sticker – one of the unofficial mottos of Burning Man. Safety First would be a slightly hypocritical principle in the city that brought you:

Damn, somebody has already beaten me to the punch with the inevitable Underpants Gnome reference, but what the hell, I’m going to make it anyway…

1. Affix sign to wall(?)
2. ???
3. Safety!
