  2. Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

    That looks hard…

  3. velvet DOT ORG! says:

    Ok, that’s taking those ’skin’ carvings a little too far!

  4. Malicite, Bored Paralegal and Supporter of the Anti-Troll Initiative says:

    They look like they had the skin removed…

  5. Dawg Nuts says:

    “Cum see the Overlook!”

  6. Judy says:

    Wouldn’t you just love to see the expressions on the faces of the seafaring folk as they go by??

    Hmmmm…….

  8. no name(insert name here) says:

    the holy dick monks of the north!

  9. Histidine says:

    How is this a fail?

    This is obviously an intentional phallic reference, from a culture much more sexually and socially mature than any of you idiots who think this is a mistake…

  10. no name(insert name here) says:

    oh ya hi yall *squeezes*

  11. JasonK says:

  14. |-|/-\XX()R says:

    lulz

  15. ralnoth says:

    I couldn’t help but think the birds are Chozo statues, but they can’t be, or else they’d have an outreached arm with an orb in it (or perhaps in this case, both arms extended with an orb in each).

  16. Jules ♂ ♪ says:

    Do these sculptures remind anyone else of characters from a cartoon?

  17. check out the packer on the one nearest to camera

  18. Roximoon says:

    perhaps they were making a particular STD a little fancier by making statues for it and the itching and burning is represented by the well dressed avians…

  19. North Korea’s nuclear launch site

  20. grannycatflap says:

    or rockets about to be launched towards Uranus to search for clingons and extra-testicles

  21. grannycatflap says:

    those helmets look rather well polished, they should have waited for some birds to do their business before taking the picture for more effect

  22. *looks around*
    *let’s Brewski out of the crate*

  23. Eric says:

    looks like failblog failed on this one

  24. So? how are things going around here?
    .
    I didn’t follow a thing of it today, I’m a very busy man.

  25. PPPH says:

    Someone should remake this monument to squirt a white water.

  26. chez ♂ says:

  45. Morvevissi says:

    o.o, did i miss something?

  46. TwiTwi says:

    Phallus symbols are intended.
    Failblog fail.

    • TickleMeCthulu says:

      Sorry, the kids here can’t think of the word ‘penis’ without giggling.

      So naturally, the idea of phallus statuary for the sake of fertility is certainly beyond them;)

  47. Ireninach says:

    Beauty, where is it?

  48. 5 Eagles says:

    One for the Baron ya..

  49. Arthur Eld says:

    What about the other 20%? Do you want to *SQUEEZE* them?

  53. het Baron, want some kool-aide?

  54. POB 2.0 says:

    Oh, and:
    80%? That’s more than half!
    *squeezes the Baron again, just because*

  55. pssst, i think you need a refill on that kool-aide.

  56. awrat says:

    *NO FAIL FOUND*
    Fail for cultures that for some reason think certain parts of the human body shouldn’t be recreated as a sculpture.
    It’s a celebration of life and fertility dumbasses.

    • The L says:

      Yes, but why are there animals carved into the side of the phalluses? That’s the part that bothers me.

      • TickleMeCthulu says:

        They’re Oni. In this case, Demons which represent a mountain. Another fertility symbol.

        These spirits would be the ones you pray to for the fertility.

        • rob says:

          actually, they’re characters of the zodiac, what’s not in the photo are the other 9, i took this photo in korea, and the whole park stems around a legend of a virgin who drowned in the ocean unsatisfied. shortly after, the fishing was very poor, until one day a fisherman was relieving himself in the direction of the ocean, and the next day, fishing was bountiful, so they erected a park with penises for good luck. and they are in on the joke. you can look it up, it’s called Haesindang penis park.

  57. kurtofan says:

    I don’t see the fail here
    All cultures in the world before monotheism always pictures phallus-shaped sculptures(obelisks,menhirs etc…)

  58. Syine says:

    How do i save favs? user Fail….

  59. Title Fail says:

    Title Fail. It should be “Monument Fail”. Monumental is an adjective. Dumbasses.

  60. Failfarker says:

    *Clueless submitter Fail*

    Sculptures that AREN’T supposed to look anything like a penis, but do = Fail

    Sculptures that are SUPPOSED to look exactly like a penis, and do = NOT A FAIL

    Jeezus, take some comparative religion classes or something, people! Nearly every culture on earth has some sort of fertility/phallus theme in there somewhere.

    • Syine says:

      FAIL!…for being so serious ^^

    • The L says:

      Sculptures that don’t settle for being a penis, but also have animals carved into the sides for no logical reason = FAIL.

      It’s not the penis that fails, odd as it may be to American eyes. IT’S THE ANIMALS that make this so epic.

  61. Derp says:

    Theres NOWAY that’s not on purpose! :P

  62. ZombieApocalypse says:

    Ok, this one is just for you Baron.
    .
    *squeezes BaronVonBuzzkill*
    *’accidentally’ covers Baron with maggots and decomposing slime*

  63. thisisntjasmine says:

    so, does anybody know where this be located??

    • Rohvannyn says:

      I would guess somewhere in India. The style matches that. I thought it was a fail because the figures inside seriously do look like cartoon characters. It is a fairly modern installation, too. They made me think of sacred lingams with the characters from Dark Crystal in them. *off to look more closely at faces*

  64. Emily says:

    OMG
    Major fail

  65. graspee says:

    The statues are meant to look like penises. They look like penises.

    Where is the fail?

    If you ask me, it’s the person who submitted this that fails.

  66. jimmy bones says:

    GOP monument to Larry Craig, Mark Foley, and Ted Haggard.

  67. Shillaqueen says:

    Where is that? I wanna go see them for myself!

    • Steve says:

      It’s Penis Park in Shillim, a fishing village on the East coast of South Korea…It’s all intentional. I’ve been there. The story behind the park is it’s a fishing village…

      the story goes a virgin girl drowned…

      the fish all dissappeared…

      to appease the spirit all the men jerked off into the bay…

      and the fish came back.

      It’s filled with penis statues, hundreds of penises.

  68. kyuuki says:

    giant stone penii with furry sculptures… why am I not surprised at that combo?

  69. natasha says:

    tbh, it looks intentional.

  70. Aerius says:

    Not a Fail at all !

    Picture taken in the Haesindang Gong·won, aka the Penis Park, in Samcheok, South Korea. You can visit the park with a museum dedicated to the representation of penis all over the world.

    Very interesting to visit !

    • ZombieApocalypse says:

      *attempting his best Monty Python Sir Galahad impersonation, which is actually really really bad*
      I get you’re gay.

  71. Aja says:

    So, this is Beachy Head then?

  72. unidyne says:

    Just one question: Where the heck IS this place?

  73. Red Land says:

    Erected in honor of the fertile gods of Star Fox.

  74. Ryu Darragh says:

    How is that fail? Those are *supposed* to be phallic symbols and represent, I suspect, either an in joke or one or another asian or indian cultures phallic symbology… fertility or vitality – minor deities or spirits. Depends on where those monuments are, I’d say.

  75. PointsOutTheObvious says:

    Not really fail. What country is this in? In many placed the penis is a symbol of fertility, not vulgar or inappropriate as it is here. These monuments were MEANT to be enshrined in a penis as a sort of symbol. It would be good to know more about it.

  76. Jamie Hamilton says:

    Reminds me of the “Holy Soap Fail” from awhile ago.

  77. jennyisbusy says:

    Once you go black (bird, monkey, sheep) you never go back.

  78. Etni says:

    So they have penis monuments, big deal

  79. Plooplahdook says:

    Does anyone else think those things look kind of like Skeksis? With penises obviously.

  80. M says:

    These are deliberate. Ergo, not fail.

  81. Mitch says:

    it might be a dream of every girl, isnt it?

  82. CyborgJesus says:

    suggestive phallic imagery WIN!

  83. blah says:

    my penis

  84. Heidi says:

    not a fail: they did it on purpose. It’s a win

  85. Jocasta says:

    I agree, this is definitely a win…

  86. UPSgrrrL88 says:

    I would love to see what those statues look like from behind. It would have been funny if someone could have sat on top of one of those statues and then taken the pic. Hilarious!!

  87. raachuu says:

    wow. lol.

  88. General funneh says:

    you guys are 2 serious and need to embrace the funneh thats what this site is for if u don’t stop being cereal im going to shove a happy pill up your asses

  89. Wolfsaben says:

    I think this is an anti-prude win.

  90. Christopher says:

    And penises rose from the earth…is it a sign of the apocalypse, or is the earth just happy to see me?

  91. kat says:

    Hey! That’s me!
    This picture was taken in South Korea in a place called Haesindang Penis Park. There were hundreds of penis sculptures of all different sizes, shapes and forms.
    LOL! Actually I thought it was an epic win! Best park ever!

  92. kat says:

    I should also add that there is a story to this park. A long time ago there was a virgin who was to be married but before she could be married she somehow drowned in the ocean. Because she died “unfulfilled” there became a shortage of fish. One day a fisherman had to piss really bad, so he pulled down his pants and pissed in the ocean. The next day there was a record catch of fish (because the virgin girl finally was “fulfilled”) So, people erected (hehehe) penis poles to keep her happy. The End.

  93. failblog says:

    REPOST FAIL!

  94. Bob bob says:

    lol who wears green trousers. Does she think shes a leprechaun. Fail!

  95. John Brown says:

    We don’t know the artist’s intentions, for all we know this is a win of enormous proportions!

  96. dood says:

    totally skeksis

  97. Davio says:

    All hail the mystical penis-birds!

  98. Andie says:

    *jaw drop* Just. Wow.

  99. Random User says:

    I don’t get it. It has to do with a penis, but could someone explain what the fail is here anyways?

  100. bennz says:

    i hate these fails so much

  101. eRICA wHO lOVES yOU! says:

    Does anyone find this weird?

  102. aloy says:

    OH ITS SO FUNNY COS THEY LOOK LIKe DONGS, god dammit people grow up…

  103. Domo-kun says:

    Does this mean my sperm is actually tiny statues of animals?
