You don’t say.
Something happened?
For once I got here before anyone else. I fear I might have stolen someones thunder though, but it’s probably just a troll.
*ahem*
YOU????!!!????
If you look, my post is earlier than YaoLi’s.
I’m just glad a regular got it, and it was meaningful.
Meaningful? Oops. Well, at least I was less annoying than a troll!
Never got to wish you a happy El Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) on Monday.
c-c-c-c-c-c Combo Breaker
Yeah, I saw this on Sportsnation the other day. Apparently this dude ruined over 200k worth of booze because of this.
I seriously want to know if he died.
No joke.
I doubt that he died looks like most of the stuff fell away from him
hey, what’s your problem with trolls? I mean, at least they’re cooler than those gnomes and dreina… draine… you know what I mean!
Well, you forked that one up
And the lord said, I’m gonna fork your day up.
And on the 8th Day, the Lord created forks
He should have paid attention to the alert message.
The booze scored another tounchdown.
He was tounched by spirits.
Good one Leila!
*hands gold star*
GASP!!!
FOR ME???!!!???
Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!
Sankooooooooooooooo!!!!
*HappySmoochOnCheek*
*skips down the hall with gold star*
Alert! Alert!
(I drive a forklift at work and well this guy needs to get back to basics.
Basics? He needs to get back to an office job where the most physical damage he can do is to hurt himself with a stapler.
Or the service industry, like banking and high finance. I mean, how could a bunch of bankers ever cause anybody any problems?
Have you ever had a paper cut from a manilla folder? Deadly.
About as bad as the ones you get while opening a cardboard box. YOWCH!
Not as bad as the ones you get from the metal clips inside contract folders…those suckers bite!!!! *sniff*
That’s actually not a paper cut at all.
Thanks for pointing that out, Michael.
*makes note in logbook*
This is why I love Failblog. I learn. A lot.
*adds right parentheses*
*writes Emp’s the sis*
*Takes mallet to own head*
How are ya dilly?
Aww, don’t hurt that cute little head!
I’m fabulous, just got back from Paris and my jet lag is wretched, but I get to go to karaoke in a few hours. That should help.
Good to hear you are doing well. How was the trip? Did you enjoy Paris?
Great minds think alike, MRN! I was going to ask if something happened.
*brilliantmindsqueezies*
He shouldn’t have made that left until Albuquerque.
… or until Absolut.
He appeared to Smirnoff course.
They really shouldn’t stack glass bottles to the Skyy, that’s just asking for trouble.
Such a silly (Grey) Goose.
That is Xellent advice MRN.
Now they find themselves in a fine Kettel (One) of fish.
I’ll bet some Shakers had a hand in this.
You Stoli my line!
Don’t make the Dragon Bleu!
*Sighs*
I must learn to Harnas the powers refresh.
It was an unintended Trump.
*Sorrysqueeze*
I see Grams is getting too old to drive a forklift.
I thought it was Gordon’s turn to drive.
Really, I thought it was Tito’s turn.
I didn’t want to Boru with the details.
I have one question Dragon.
Is it always a titanic failure when an Iceberg is involved?
It’s “He should have made that left turn at Albuquerque”. Get your Looney Toons references right!
Teehee!
Seriously… did anyone else saw a shadow came out of the fork clip just before it went wild?
There was something going on there…..
Smoke, and also… I saw fire.
The smoke was diesel exhaust. It looked like he hit a slippery spot on the floor (you can see the shine) and his wheel spun and the engine gunned, making the smoke cloud.
I used to drive a forklift. I can’t stop laughing. The forklift cage probably protected him from getting hurt, but he probably wished he could have died. Poor guy.
thats not shadow, thats the smoke from the dump pipe of the fork lift.
Did he die?
*Jaw drops* Holy shit, he’s lucky to be alive. He’s lucky that wasn’t break pads, my buddy was the victim of bumping an already damaged rack. It fell while he was on it. He lived but I think he had to change his pants after.
Used to be a top shelf liquor.
♫10 thousand bottles of booze on the wall,
10 thousand bottles of booze! ♫
♫ You knock into the upright, knock em all down

You misspelled floor.
Vodka makes him tipsy.
Something tells me brew is about to lose his pants…
*Waits*
I vote he loses something other than his pants this time.
*waits too*
His virginity?
Are you a born again virgin Brew?
He’s been using the Purity Soap.
So we’re good then.
Gracie, steal his virginity.
*calls to have Brewski delivered a box full of Purity Soap*
In case Gracie needs to steal it again.
His religion?
*shines spotlight on Brewski in the corner*
Well, there goes his confession too.
Too late. I’m a heathen.
*waits three*
What are we waiting for again?
We were waiting for you to finish that vodka.
*throws vodka over shoulder*
*steals Brewski’s pants*
*runs away, giggling*
Why yes, I do believe it is.
No. No, it is not you silly blue people!!!
Oh…ooooooh, YES! It is Commando Thursday! I was looking at the African calendar earlier. My bad.
Speaking of blue people, I don’t get it. Are you all depressed or just trying to hold your breath longer than me?
Umm… ZA…. you have to be breathing to hold your breath…
Alright, ZA.
It all started when Judy and I came to the realization that we must be long lost sisters. That got us remembering how everyone used to get us mixed up back in the day when we both had pink avatars. So, I decided to make the color change.
I always have been a trend-setter! *bats eyes*
And then Gracie decided to become one of my minions, and any others, well, they’re just lemmings. *tweaks Brewski’s butt*
*bluesqueezes*
*squeezes the blues*
Oh, and :-p @ Judy.
*runs off cliff*

*glances in the room*
Why are there claw marks up the wall?
*looks innocent*
I have no idea what you’re talking about.
*struts away with a satisfied smile on her face*
*stumbles out with dazed expression*
Oooooohhh…
wha… what happened??
*collapses in a heap, exhausted*
Hit the showers and get a cup of coffee. You’ll feel better if you don’t think about it too much… You can watch the video on FailBlog in a week or so after it’s been cycled through Youtube for a while.
Won’t be long – it’s already on CollegeHumor, and Simpsons already said it.
WooHoo, Brewski!!!
I think he’s progressed to falling-down drunk at this point.
You know I’m a pushover when drinks are involved!
That warehouse sure looks like it got bombed.
It’s at the very least, disorderly.
Looks smashed to me.
Aww, I missed Marius?! I’ll have better aim tomorrow.
*blacks out time on morning’s schedule*
I thought for blacking out time one needed a bottle of strong stimulants.
Well, I am going to work.
that’s where all of those OH&S courses went.
Well… for some people sober life is just unacceptable.
Sobriety is for people who can’t handle booze.
Alcohol is my anti-drug.
Complete and total win here folks.
yeah, it was. Until we all found out later that the driver had to have his leg amputated…
First!
I fail
In more ways than you realize.
Care to elaborate?
We don’t much care for people shouting First! around here.

Like a bad game of Jenga.
“Bad” would be an understatement.
Cross-the-streams “bad”
Tell him about the Twinkie.
Yes it’s true… this man has no dick.
I never was any good at that game.
Then you probably aren’t up for the super-jumbo forklift edition.
The ultimate drinking game.
Forklift Pong!!
What is this, Captain Kangaroo, adult edition?
I am very a-moosed.
The forklift driver made quite the knock-knock joke.
*models new Green Jeans*
You’re probably right. And since I have no intention of attempting the super-jumbo forklift edition, we can all breathe easier. And not worry about the vodka.
how were you at bumper cars?
Bad?? I thought it was awesome!
If only every Bejeweled Blitz were like this.
Where’d you learn to drive, Disneyland?
As a matter of fact, yes. On the Teacups.
I learned in the cars in ‘Tomorrowland’ when I was ten. Then, when I was 12 my dad taught me to drive a stick shift in the pastures around his farm.
I think it’s awesome when girls drive a stick shift.
*is in overdrive just thinking about it*
Heard ZA stole your 1st gear.
Why the paradigm shift? We were roleplay hornychatting (or whatever we call it now.)
Hornychatting is only effective when the engine is revved properly.
What, are you in reverse now?
don’t forget to take off the parking break, or you’ll burn out the clutch.
We won’t be idle, no matter how long the parking break.
Mind your pistons to ensure high performance.
Don’t worry, as long as there’s compression and a spark it’ll fire.
How big is your engine again? I have to get you the right spark plugs.
How big? I thought it was more important that I get good mileage.
Don’t drink and park, parking causes kids.
I guess I won’t ask about your torque output.

Now it’s like a dream.
It is for ME!! I really miss chocolate cake.
Why? Bad aim?
Indeed…it’s an eating disorder.

C’mere you two, I’ve got some blue frosting. Not quite enough, mind you…
Eeep! I can’t believe I burst in there like that!
*runs away with Judy*
She has a very good aim, and she’s achieving it.

Sorry JW,you’re too late! Unless they expressed this one for your birthday.
Yeah… I saw the screen capture on it… computer is being video impaired right now, who got credit as powering the fail?
Nobody we know.
That’s unfortunate. Well… maybe it’s fortunate… Failpeeps only have so much hair to singe off with sparklers….
*admires MsB’s hat*
You look very stylish today!
do “they” use a pump to express?
He did that on purpose. So it’s not a fail, but a fake.
Admire my wonderful argumentation!
Apparently those were cases of expensive vodka. The operative word here being “were.”
Vodka?!! Did anyone else cry?
Alcohol abuse!
*wipes away a tear*
All those poor vodka-less pom martinis…!
A pom tear for the pomme de terre vodka.
Vodka – the most enjoyment <I've ever gotten from a potato.
Now, how did I screw up the HTML that badly??
Faulty fingerlings?
I think he’s baked.
Idaho, how did you do that?
Maybe he was russeting up some grub and got distracted.
I don’t know. It looks more like he got himself twice baked. Share, MRN!
Share? OK, here I am, ready to be whipped.
*puts some butter on MRN*
*helps it melt*
Woohoo! A SuzieQ/Judy sandwich! Turn up the heat!
*turns knob to “sizzle”*
*takes off jacket*
Whoa…hey, there MRN!!! I was just casually walking by this thread and got sucked in…
Speaking of whipping…
You’re not the first to claim you accidenty’d a potato.
*tater snork!*
Over $200 000 worth of damage. Who’s dollar I don’t know but that was the end of the news report I caught.
And that’s probably wholesale prices!!
Even worse, it’s Russian Vodka (the really good stuff).
Probably the person’s employer, to be covered by their insurance. That is going to be a painful claim.
Just how many shelving systems did the guy hit?!?
He hit just the one, and the other one came down as a result of a fabulous domino affect.
Other one?
That looked like more than one!
Now all I can think about is this whole butterfly effect…
I;m pretty sure it’s just the one. A biiiiig one, tho.
This is usually the sort of thing that happens just as you are about to start stocktaking. I can just picture the group of bored employees armed with clipboards, just off camera.
“Hey, you know that arduous and mind-numbingly tedious task you were about to start? Well, it just got a whole lot more arduous … and messy.”
domino affect? oh man… it’s vietnam all over again.
More than half?
That’s a matter of opinion.
it’s a fifth.
Just showed this to my Hubby – all he could say was …
“they should have had column protectors fitted to the end frames”
….. and he gave me a lesson on the laws of physics. (He fits pallet racking for a living!)
Me, I just feel desolate at the loss of all that vodka!!
WTF? This was posted on Collegehumor less than a week ago.
Failblog are just getting cheap, resorting to ripping off videos from another site.
Really really really 27adam wellllll you are justing ripping off what others are going to say the same thing.
Please refer to the “Send In The Failboat” and “Vote” buttons at the top of the page for further understanding of how this blog works.
…or the little ‘x’ in the top right corner of your screen.
The “x” with the red box surrounding it.LOL

Why take chances? Go to the basement and throw that big lever. Peace and quiet!
In fact, there’s this lovely cave out in the mountain range that might be just the ticket here…
.. and if you come across a rocket that says “Mars or Bust!” along it’s side, climb in.
Spelunking again, dubs?
By the way, Rush came on in the car yesterday, and the bf started ROCKING THE HELL OUT and belting every word. I mimed hanging myself with my scarf and thought of you.
HAH!!
I mean, how awful for you.
*stifles a snork*
Of course, she’s just admitted that she thinks of me when she’s with her boyfriend, so SCORE for me!
Wrong leverrr!
NO TOUCHIE!!
That’s what I tell the girls when we’re shopping.
Kuzco rules!
You speak squirrel?
You owe me a new acorn!
YAY! I’m a llama again!
Wait…
A giant waterfall.
likely with giant rocks at the bottom where we’ll be crushed to death.
…
Bring it on.
It’s called a “cruel irony.” Like my dependance on you.
That has to be one of my fav lines from that movie…
Thanks…’Yzma’…
Hey, that’s kinda like what he said to you when you got fired.
*buttersqueezes*
Why do we even have that lever?!
*giggle*
My kiddywinks and I say that bit whenever we play Lego Batman and have to pull a lever for something.
What are the odds of that trap door leadin’ me out here?
Didn’t you know? No one ever gets out of here….
Bwahahahahaha!
Welcome to the Hotel California!
I think he forgot a few dominoes.
Reminds me of this.
htt p://w ww.youtube.co m/wa tch?v=hW6ffXYI-_k
Does anyone know if he made it out?
Yes, the video was in a news story (link from JW on an earlier Fail), and they said he was fine (physically, at least). Might have been written up for this, tho’.
What was his excuse?
I say the shelving’s support system was weak.
*calls Malicite to sue*
The link to the Yahoo story is still my clickie
Is that a round-about way of asking the death question?
Did he daiquiri?
Did he distill?
Did he drive?
Did he cry?
Dammit, when I saw this I hoped my comment was earlier.
What are you talking about Avis?
*shuffles feet and looks at the ground*
Sheesh!!!
This is not what they mean by, “Knocking back a few.”
He drove himself to drink.
[Spicoli]
People on ‘ludes should not drive.
[/Spicoli]
I think he drove himself into the drink(s)!
Did he fall off the wagon? No, wait.. did the drinks fall off the wagon? No, wait.. I have a joke in here somewhere..
* scritches head *
Someone call TAPS there are spirits running all over this place.
I am way too addicted to that show. And the hubby makes fun of me for it.
Oh my, that and paranormal stats are my two fave shows.
I still need to watch paranormal activity.
Paranormal State even. Sheesh, missing my ‘e’.
You know you’ve been coming to Fail Blog too much when you’re entering a voucher for a battery tester and your brain sees it as “battery testes.”
I’m having a similar problem. Whenever someone asks me what the first thing that comes to my mind is, it’s always “POTATO”.
I’m glad I’m not the only one.
Kinda has you looking over your shoulder all the time, doesn’t it?
Do be good,
don’t be bad.
Or your not coming enough, if you catch my drift.
You may have a point.
*slips MRN a ‘re*
Yikes! Thanks! BRB – need more coffee – this vodka damage has really shaken (not stirred) me!
Olive this isn’t making sense.
*eyes the blue balloon*
Who is Yzma?
Name change fail. Don’t worry about it.
*squeeze*
What a POS, I wouldn’t trust that crappy shelving. No wonder it fell.
Wow. What a video!
Those have to be #%@$ crappy racks, or perhaps improperly loaded. I wonder if this happened overseas someplace with no OSHA.
I used worked one summer in a warehouse, and on three occasions while I was there forklifts hit pallet racks, and they never tipped. One guy hit the rack so hard the drive wheels ended up off the ground, and they had to chain it to another forklift to pull it loose. Never tipped.
Safety cages are good things!
Yes, we are very happy people. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT?! WELL, DO YOU?!
We’re shiny happy people

Of course not.

Well well well. Did a troll just do a disappearing trick?
Sure did! And the blog is back to normal!
Na zdarovye!

I can tell you sit at your computer all day long just waiting for something to happen….
If you hit Alt-F4, you can get the shorter version of his name.

Hey! It’s just your face that’s red? *limps off*
Well, considering I have school, and I have homework, I’m afraid that’s not really plausible. In fact, on a normal day, you won’t see me for long.
This is a troll, sweetie. Just move along.

Cheers, DW. I think I’ll head off to the break room now.

*ThankYouSmoochOnCheek*
Of course! The FailBlog wardrobe is right down this hallway!
And it’s the perect time to find something off the rack.
Hang on Leila, I’ve got the Transporter locked onto you.

I just can’t keep up today.
Failpeep poll
I see how often folks here use the phrase “bukkit” in place of some more colorful language… Anybody use that phrase in “real life” away from FB?
Not “bukkit,” but I do use “snork” and “roffle” (and my kiddywinks do now, too).
The bukkit is actually a form of punishment. It’s a magical bukkit which changes the contents to a persons least favorite food. We kersplortch into the bukkit when we make an embarrassing mistake. Judy once offered me a bowl of ice cream that magically turned into the contents of my bukkit. My sister thought that one was HIGH-larious.
The purpose of the bukkit is spelled out at the failpeeps site, along with other things. It’s not really a replacement for more “colorful” language, per se.
Now, that said, I don’t always say the word (snork, rofl, or thwack to name a few), but I almost always think it.
I usually find myself thinking
I really wish I could use that on the other fb. It would come in handy.
I have actually caught myself writing that in hand written stuff. That and I keep expecting the red squiggly line to show up on those handwritten shopping lists and on my phone’s texting!
I have my moments. Those would NOT be them.
I find myself avoiding the word “¡magine” in emails.
A for effort GS. Come visit me in the ER and maybe you can teleport me home from there.
*passes Leila spare pants that were reserved for Brewski but his apparently haven’t been stolen yet so he has no need for these*
No, we had them reversed for Brewski, as a practical joke.
(Actually, I just want to see if I can italicize again now that I’ve had more coffee.)
*digs through bag of extra pants*
*finds specially treated pants*
*gives special pants to Brewski*
You do know I will need a shirt as well right?
Thanks for the pants!
Oh wait, not my style. Not stripes, no polka dots.
*donates to Goodwill*
Shirt? I just checked – it’s 77 in Houston right now. You’ll be fine, just a bit “perky”.
Goodwill called: They said muffin stumps were bad enough, but this is going too far.
*digs through bag of pants*
Will this work?
*hands Brewski a pair of flare legged pants, with one leg polka dotted, the other striped, and the back pockets in a leopard print*
Now that’s more like it!
*grabs pants away from JW before Brewski can get them*
He won’t be needing these today, THEN-kew!
*grabs Brewski and drags him to an unoccupied room for seconds*
Please don’t tell me you’re wearing a plaid shirt…
An unoccupied room for seconds? Wow, usually women don’t like a man who’s done that fast.
*digs in bag some more*
*finds old toga*
*gives toga to Brewski*
There… no pants to steal that way.
It’s not going to be an orgy, right? Just a toga party?
*looks up Brewski’s toga*
I do love commando Thursday!
MRN, you don’t understand. To a desert girl 77 is COLD!!! Now gimme my shirt or else…
*covers perkiness*
I’ve said it before, a kilt would solve all these pants problems.
*passes Leila a terry cloth robe in a fetching blue with pink accents*
I read that as “dessert girl”, which, come to think of it, I like better.
Just wait for me in the desert, I’ll be right there.
*rides off on horse with no name*
*looks up GS’s kilt*
It’s one thing to ride the horse with no name but did you at least buy her some dinner?
mac, meet reply button. Reply button, meet mac. I hope you two can become friends.
*skips away*
There’s this little function that you can use. It’s called “reply”. It’s in the lower right corner of the comment boxes. It’s quite handy.
Now that’s gotta be a bad day.
I’d go so far as to put this in the “epic bad day” category.
Did he distill?

!Great Scott!….
That is clever…

LGB isn’t here, so I’m sure it won’t be the meat-that-shall-remain-nameless cookies…
Ah, yes, the “frequently-mentioned-in-a-certain-Monty-Python-sketch-meat” cookie. I know what you mean.
Haha, as funny as this is I saw it on the news. This isn’t a driver fail, it was instead a couple of thieves wreaking havoc on a store they were robbing. The news report was showing the importance of security cameras in public places and big buildings such as warehouses, shopping malls and train/subway stations to prevent robbers, looters and vandals.
By the way, this happened in Argentina
Did he die?
Ironic name.
it Would be in Argentina
Well, Boss, I was, well…I was…I…you see…the thing…forget it, I really don’t know what happened, but hey, the inventory is shuffled now!
Well, most warehouses do like to turn over inventory quickly!
You’ve heard of FIFO, right? He just went about it the fastest way.
Looks more like a stack – heap collision, to me.
A stack overflow, due to an errant pointer.
Would that make it a core dump, then?
Certainly a lot of undefined behaviour.
I think that array is out of bounds.
Not only is there a fast turn over, but inventory is flying off the shelf!
heh heh, touche!
everybody dies… not everybody truly “lives”
Did he die?
I mean… Did his boss kill him?
Best forklift safety video EVER is from Germany, looks normal at first but turns into a Sam Peckinpah film!
I hate to be the old fuddy duddy here, but this isn’t funny at all. The drivers I’m sure were at least hurt, if not killed.
Not a fail. It’s a tragedy. My opinion.
*steadies self for flames*
Why do you think they were hurt or killed? Ever been near a forklift before? They typically have reinforced “roll cages” around the driver – yup, if you look there’s a steel cage over the driver protecting him from falling debris. Even though the debris is falling because of him.
I’ve been working on a forklift and had a full lift of product fall on me before. No, that’s not what killed me, I was fine. It did freak me out pretty good though!
@TotalBlammBlamm (I hope this nests properly):
This was on the news. The driver’s leg was slightly injured, and that’s it.
@ Fluffy: Thanks. It isn’t good that he was injured but it’s good to know he wasn’t killed.
The Fail Powers That Be once assured us that the don’t post fails in which people were killed.
I didn’t know that. That’s cool.
You hear that, DHD posters?
Don’t Hog the Dough?
Don’t Hate Detroit?
Double Hooped Dodos?
to die is to fail (at living)
You mean, don’t skip this video?
OMG! Is he dead? hope not.
ohhh man… i didnt expect it to be THAT catastrophic… that was almost too painful to watch
shit………
There goes your bonus.
i think he got fired
no, why?
I think he got a reward.
“Get it out the door” – every warehouse management team’s slogan.
“whoa! So it’s a BIG reward! It didn’t fit in the warehouse! I’m so lucky.”
This is fun! It’s like all of our replies are being put into a hat, shaken, and dropped one by one into the thread!
wow… I’m not near drunk enough for this…
Because it’s your birthday and because you alerted us to this video before it even showed up here, the above comment will power a Fail someday.
Yhm.. I think-
no, I wil–
well… I don’t know any more.

Is this where you hoped it would end up DW? Do we need to put the comment in a cannon and shoot it ^^ there somewhere?

Thats funny hlb.
Something to think about when you’re walking through Costco next time.
G.
I would think about, “Why the hell am I in a Costco?”
CostCo is a helluva lot better than a Sam’s. Better treatment of employees is just one little example of that.
*has a CostCo membership*
*uses it for basics and books*
Your Costco has books? I’ve never bought a crate of Emily Brightwell.
Heh – the closest I’ve ever come to that scenario was finding a fun Zen-like book (How Would Confucius Ask For a Raise? ) in a dollar book store. I bought 10 copies and slowly, over the next year or two, gave them to friends of mine who seemed receptive to the ideas in the book.
A sneaky Zen evangelist?
…And phrases like, “I’ve never bought a crate of Emily Brightwell” are the main reason I’m addicted to Failblog.
What happened to my smiley face reply?
*starts to hyperventilate, breathes into paper bag*
I shall try again.
Oh, trust me, I’ve never been in a Sam’s, and the one and only time I was in a Mall*Wart was to buy a gift card for a friend who specifically wanted one. I am a fan of Target; probably shouldn’t be either.
Used to work there…MUCH better than Wal-Fart… *snerkity*
I avoid WalMart like the plague. I like to frequent local businesses whenever possible.
But I do admit to frequent trips to Lowe’s.
Damn. This one’s everywhere like if it was on the internet before computers…
How come FAILBlog is this late?
It was on the news yesterday oh oil measuring utensil.
FWIW: I like the captioning of the Fails today. I often think the captions on Engrishfunny are clever and add a lot to that site.
Agreed. I still think they should let us vote on the comment that should power the video.
Dun even wanna picture cleaning up all that mess x_x
This reminds me of working in a grocery store as a 15 year old…
Have to be 21 to drink.
Have to be 18 to ring up the alcohol at the cash register.
But who do they send to clean up the broken bottle of wine that fell of the shelf? You got it, the 15 year old bagger… *facepalm*
Trickle down effect in action.
Was even better when my mother asked me why I smelled like cheap wine when I got home from work.
“I know it looks bad, Boss, but I can fix it. Just let me call my old pal Garbage-Burning-Fail-guy. He’ll have this mess cleaned up in a jiffy.”
Wish I had that good an excuse when I was 15 and my mother asked why I smelled like cheap wine when I came home.
You stayed after school with Mrs. Krabappel?
She preferred a vintage wine? A mom of taste!
“Young man, you’d better smoke a Cuban cigar before your father gets home!!”
it was on the news too!
holy shit
*the choir sings “HALLELUJAH”*

Ever wonder why your shipments didn’t arrive last week?
THAT’S WHY!
It’s in Russia. And those boxes were full of vodka and brandy

He puts his flashers on right after he hits the structure. Way to think safety.
*flashes the blog*
*hits a structure*
*thinks safety*
Profit!
Remember, kids. Don’t drink and drive.
Or is it don’t drive over the drinks? Well, there’s some life lesson in there.
Driving and booze just don’t mix well. That guy just forked everything up.
The forking wasn’t even worth it. What do you expect after a night of binge drinking?
life lesson: don’t let bottles bonk you in the head.
That’s a shelving failure more than anything else. No remotely safe shelving would have collapsed from that hit.
Thank you! I agree, that shelf was way too flimsy for a little bump from a forklift.
Hope there was glass in those boxes
Boss pondering: “Hmm. Do I tell him that he is fired as of now or make him clean everything up and then tell him that he was already fired?”
Are you pondering what I’m pondering?
it’s wet in the pond?
Brain? Is that you?
I think so! But how are we going to get the potato into the vacuum hose?
Thats comin outa your paycheck.
i feel like this is something Michael Scott would do
There ere no surviviours…

Ms. B, I haven’t lost the twin weight. There are two whole people in my skin.
cut me off a slice BoppitybopBopper it goes great with fave(?) beans. (silence of the lambs)
*snerk!*
EPIC fail
I don’t know, I somehow awaited my name under it, anybody else send this?
old … same as this I think from days ago Fork Lift Fail
so… did anyone else see the creep ass black shadow thing?
it totally darts away from the fork lift and between the boxes.
weird shit, man. weird shit.
its called exhaust…
then why does it dart around the boxes
because it cant go through them? heh. look at some other videos of this (this is just a short clip) and you see more exhaust puffs.
Looks like a reflection of the black part of the forklift. It moves at the exact same pace.
“your order is being processed”
The item you have ordered is out of stock. We will place it on backorder and you will receive notice of shipment in 6-9 months.
These guys must handle order fulfillment for half the stuff I order online.
It’s ok, it was just a shipment of James Patterson books.
That makes me Cross.
(aannii dilly long time no comment?) Or the failblog books they are trying to push
*thumps GibberishTranslator™ *
Aannii means hello.
Ok, good, I thought you’d turned into Jar Jar while I was out…
whod me nots me I sink nooos not turned to in Jar Jar.
You… I… Hmm.
No, it’s… uhh… maybe? Of course not.
What?
Stupid move… but you can tell those shelves are horribly constructed. Not only did he take down the one he hit, but all of the other shelves in the room seem to collapse in a domino-like fashion.
I think there is a physics law for that wait here Raptor07, I will try and find an engineer. I think its called the elastic law.
wow, this is like a cult…. you guys are crazayyyy
We don’t know what you’re talking about. Coincidentally, I have some literature here, would you like some Kool-Aid while you read it?
(Don’t forget the pink robes we all wear!)
Pink ?crap I wore yellow today.
*5 eagles stomps off stepping over all the blue robed people lying dead with cups of kool-aid in their hands. *”I will be back with the pink robe this time”
Ah, yes, the pink robes. They’re so comfortable … yet so effeminate
… and yet, so comfortable… 
and yet effeminate ,(what the he!! does that mean).
It… ummm… it means… uh… totally, like, butch and stuff. Like, stuff that real men would wear.
Chuck Norris, for example, could be described as effeminate.
Indeed. It comes from the Greek, “ef” for “not at all” and “femina” for “girly”. I hope this clears things up for him.
soooo me wearing a thong is effeminate?
So would Steven Segal, Jean-Claude Van Damme, and Arnie. They’re very effeminate.
Steven Seagal’s like 5′5″ and has a ponytail.
thanks GBFbondfan I think you are supporting me cause this thong is supporting the package if you know what I mean.
Er, I know this is a slight nitpick, but I’m a bit concerned with this “GBFbondfan”. You can call me GBF or BondFan, but “GBFbondfan” is…well, wrong; GBFbondfan is “General BondFan bondfan” in its full form so, yeah, no biggie, but, just a notice.
Personally, when I can’t decide between GBF and BFF, I go for GBFF.
General BondFan Fan.
I have seen others call you this but I will stop, can I call you late for supper?
Sorry, that would be ME.
You are all that is and shall ever be……………………..
…………….Qwaz. the inspiration for me(5 eagles)
Drink the Kool-Aid first Mac. We’ll explain later.
Awwww, I missed 3Bs.
I am here wanna play patty cake? bakers man wreck my shelves as fast as you can.
LOL 5 eagles!
(I’d like to, but I don’t have any alcohol in me … yet.)
I got half a glass of Zinfinadal blackerry, keep up please.LGB
lol fail
He is real genius of destruction.
He is the master of disaster………

“Hey honey, I just got fired today.”
“WHAT!? But how Steve?”
“Well you know, the ussual stuff – rammed the forklift into a 20 feet high wall of boxes containing microchips worth half a million bucks. And now theyre suing me and making me pay it back. No biggie, happens to the best of us.”
“Steve? Ive been thinking – starting around the time you started explaining me how you crashed your workplace with a forklift – and I want a divorce…”
“hey what ever happened to thick and thin honey”
con’t……..
I think that guy is fired
hes fired………………………
no he is not fired………….
Yeah Im going to go with fired.
he’s not fired….he’s dead….literally….saw it on the news…..
Sir Epicous of Fail-Lot has just visited.
Fail aside, I think there is actually an interesting win here. The distance between the stacks may have only been decided on to allow the carts through, but it also kept the accident from turning into a giant game of dominoes. If they had been a little closer the second shelf might have fallen the other way. Because they were far enough apart the first shelf collapsed the second shelf back onto itself instead of farther into the warehouse. So that’s a win. A tiny tiny tiny little win in an epic ocean of fail, but hey, I’m a glass half-full kind of guy.
*facepalm*
*headdesk*
NIce let me fill the top half brother nacoran with ?????
Do ya call my name? duh duh duh duh. Do ya see my brain? duh duh duh duh
So that’s what happened to my Woot TV?!
I love the long pause at the end. Just makes my day every time.
92 pages and not a single on-topic post, wow! Oops … this post is off-topic
Let me fix that up. Great video though. It looks like that shelving support was far too weak – anyone have knowledge of building codes for warehouses like that? The lift was going PREtty slow when it hit. How about this … can anyone estimate the cost of the incident vs. the additional cost to build secure shelving? Keep up the good work failblog!
I know it was 150 thousand dollars in damage to the booze.
iawtc.
i mean, can we say warehouse fail?
This was on the jay leno show once. how the heck does that happen??!?!?!?!?
Creativity and four years at FAILSchool.
Okay, we can either use the most charismatic employee here to explain what happened, or we could use 15 minutes we have till the boss gets back to flee to Texas!
*seeing the forklift hit the support, support buckles* “Ohhhh nooooo….”
*first rack falls into second rack* “Ohh nooo…..”
*end, just piles of boxes visible* “Wow.”
I heard it was $150 thousand in damage, and it was all vodka and cognac. It was on the local news
amazing! oh to be a rat in the drain pipe… would die in drunken bliss!
HI, IT’S BUBA®!! YOU REMEMBER??
Speaking of safety films: this reminds me of the most awesome safety instruction video for forklift drivers (if that’s what they’re called), namely “Staplerfahrer Klaus”. Although it is in German, the video is a must-see. So should you ever have the opportunity – “by that heaven that bends above us” – watch it! (=
What the forklift happened?
Ups. Somebody gotta clean that mess up.
I used to drive a forklift in a warehouse. It was a glorious place, with aisles and aisles of boxes stacked upon boxes all the way up to the ceiling. But then one day it all came crashing down.
German Forklift Safety Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV64lW0CTwI
He should have rather collapsed the horse during work time.
RYO!
EEEEverything must go! And I mean EEEEEEEEverything!
That’s got to hurt *lol*
and my best guess is that he’s fired as well *double-lol*
That is hilarious lolz.
domino day for adults!
OMG! That is ridiculously awesome!
Wild Faillord has appeared!
Wild Faillord uses Tackle!
It’s Super Effective!!!
quick, catch him so we can unleash more fail!
did he die?
btw
ROFLMAO!!!1
In soviet russia, forklift drives YOOOOOU
Some one is getting fired.
Perfect example of the domino effect.
Maybe he just had alot of fallen homies?
Dude that’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard!
Armageddon
Don’t skip out on the safety film? More like don’t skimp on the shelving costs.
did he survive?
I just saw this on the news, after seeing it on Failblog.
He lived, but he destroyed over $100,000 worth of alcohol.
hm dejavu wasn’t already another did this smiliar?
TOTAL CARNAGE!!! Shelves collapsing in seconds!!!
It would take more than a year to clean up that mess!
Here is a video of my last day at work.
Must have been so f***ing expensive!!! Hope he was proper insured…
that’s coming out of your paycheck…
im not so sure if it was the drivers fault if you watch just before he speeds up backwards theres a large black cloud of smoke and immidiately after hitting the shelving it looks like the fork bursts into flames as well as the engine
All I could think when I saw this was: “I’m really glad I’m not cleaning that up!”
Look! At 0:36 a “ghostie” comes out of the front of the forklift.
I mean at 0:09
Clean up in aisle 12, 13, 14, 15…
cleaner: you said nothing about dead bodies in aisle 14
boss: don’t worry, thats just pete the forklift driver
Can we add this to “Physics Win” plz?
OMG i just knew they would finally put this up. I don’t think this is really a fail though. The driver on the right backed up a bit causing it to swerve and also smoke (Or a ghost thing) came out of the front at 0:10
I love how as they are going to fall on him, last second, he turns on the warning lights to the forklift, for good measure. He obviously did watch the safety video.
0_0
That is Just… WOW.
Maybe they should get rid of their Toyota floor mat………
I swear the Warehouse looked like this when I got here!!!
I saw this on English Russia in the morning and by lunch it was posted here. By far this is an epic fail and the destruction of $250K of Russian Vodka.
This is truly epic…..so very awesome.
If that guy is alive, it is a miracle. What a mess. Nobody really gets how dangerous warehouse work can be. When I worked at the chemical plant, a lady in the next warehouse over walked out of the office and was decapitated by a guy running his forklift fast with the forks up.
Looks like they had a big-a$$ mess to straighten out in that warehouse.
Say goodbye to 150000 Euro wodka.
Jep they showed that clip in the German news …
Now that is what we in the business call an EPIC FAIL!
When I heard about this the first time, I knew that sooner or later this is going to end up in failblog
Whoa, did you see the ghostly shadow that comes out of the forklift and goes around the box?
no seriously, watch the video again…Just before the idiot crashes into everything, you’ll see a shadow that comes out of the forklift, and goes around the box in front.
It’s weird.
I’ve worked in a warehouse. This is pure WIN!
thats coming out of your paycheck for the next TWELVE YEARS!
Seems to be self-correcting…
El peor día de su vida… Mejor no hubiera ido a trabajar.
This is not a forklift driver fail, it’s a company saftey fail. I’ve worked as i forklift driver and that should not be able to happen EVEN if you make the same clumsy mistake as the driver.
But I guess the owners profits came in the way of the saftey of his employees. Shit happens
Hey anyone noticed the black shadow that came out of the front of the forklift before it went bang?
i think that is a real life poltergeist!!!
i cant believe no one saw it!!!
OMG WTF!!!
