  2. Ms B ♥ says:

    Yay, another news fail. :roll:

  3. Dragonwriter says:

    WOOHOO, BFF!!!!

    *fills the cannon with tiny little clone dolls and waits for ZA*
    *pops the champagne*
    *gives all the peeps a noisemaker*

    FWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!!!

  4. Starfish says:

    Woot woot BFF!!!

  5. Fool Writer says:

    Makes me so proud to be Canadian.

  6. 8-O
    *blinks twice*

    That powered by must be a joke! It must be!

  7. Faily McFailfail of Failingham Failhurst says:

    Top10

  8. Say g'night, Gracie says:

    Help! I can’t sink!

  9. Gekko says:

    Omg, I can’t stop laughing xD

  10. willy boy says:

    Can someone give a recap for the video challenged?

    • Cloral says:

      It’s a suitcase that is a flotation device. Only, you get inside the suitcase. You’ve really gotta see this one. News anchor can’t stop laughing at it.

    • Dragonwriter says:

      Erm…well, that will really be a challenge, since you kinda gotta see this to believe it, but…

      Airplane safety guys are testing their new product–a suit you put on if you have to make a water landing. It’s…it’s…well, it’s a suit with a giant suitcase that closes over your head. Literally–with a handle on the top and everything. There’s a little window for you to look out.

      The newscaster who is covering the story can’t stop cracking up, and can’t even keep a straight face when he says what’s coming up in “entertainment news”.

  11. Faily McFailfail of Failingham Failhurst says:

    together we will gonna travel the globe
    from alberta to ontario

  12. blahblah says:

    failblog fail

  13. dnm says:

    Alberta -> Ontario is about 1000 km border to border. From say, calgary to Toronto, you can’t drive that in a day. (About 3500km.)

    The newscaster is Leslie Roberts on Global News in Toronto.

  14. bubba says:

    Wow that’s one cool suitcase

  15. ¡Great Scott! Me transmitte sursum, caledoni says:

    The put upon look of the guy before they close the bag is priceless.

  16. Bob-H says:

    Great Halloween costume for the kids. And they can wear it to the pool!

  17. Amderm says:

    Actually it seems like a brilliant product to me if your are traveling by ship. The pants and arms of the suit probably only take up the bottom of the case, leaving rooms for your luggage. Then if your ship hits an iceberg you can dump your items and float until help arrives.

  18. Chris says:

    The guys on the dock are actually from a show called “The Reinventors” (I think that was the name of it), where they actually build some of those wacky old patents. The suitcase was a survival-suit-in-a-bag that was patented right after the Titanic sank, IIRC. It looks kind of silly, but apparently it worked pretty well when they tried it…

  19. BAReFOOt says:

    I agree with the news guy. How can you look at that thing with a straight face? It’s hilarious!

  20. electrogirl says:

    I saw this live when it was on the news. I wish the clip went on longer, everyone was giggling.

  21. Cloral says:

    I think they just revealed one of the bosses from Megaman 10. Suitcaseman!

  22. LiquiD says:

    Question: Which rescue team would notice you in open water when you´re looking like a huge handbag ?! complete nonsense !!

  23. Shadow © says:

    Hmmm… in the event of an actual sinking ship, it seems those around you without the suitcase would quite literally die laughing.

  24. Avis says:

    I expect to see Lady Gaga wearing this any day now.

  25. somedudewhosawyourstuff says:

    Ooooooohhh who lived in a suitcase on top of the sea?

  26. skitteh996 says:

    did she just say former Failer??? o_O

  27. Jennifer says:

    I makes me think of Sponge Bob.

  28. fosin says:

    Hey! There’s a tool in your bag!

  29. Triarius says:

    When he said “sailor”, it sounded like “failer” ^^

  30. sexycindy says:

    My friend recommended me an interesting place –** blackwhitefinder. ccoomm **– It’s where women seeking sugar daddys men seeking sugar babys!! Maybe you wanna check out. FREE TO JOIN…C’MON NOW!!!

  31. drew says:

    If looks stupid, but it works, it ain’t stupid.

  32. SamHartlaz says:

    At the end does he say “Here’s Earl Hickey”?

    Earl Hickey is the main character from My Name is Earl!

  33. Mooster says:

    Don’t know whether or not to facepalm or start ROFTLOL

  34. Dean o says:

    Hey mooster sleep with one eye open tonight

  35. Donnyp says:

    lol. I love Canadian news.

  36. Daniel says:

    Actually in physics I learned that with more volume means less dense. If less dense than water, you float. He had quite a bit of volume there, therefore a life preserver would mean nothing compared to this kind of flotation device.

    Before the wide spread of internetworking that led to the Internet, most communication networks were limited by their nature to only allow communications between the stations on the local network and the prevalent computer networking method was based on the central mainframe computer model. Several research programs began to explore and articulate principles of networking between physically separate networks, leading to the development of the packet switching model of digital networking. These research efforts included those of the laboratories of Donald Davies (NPL), Paul Baran (RAND Corporation), and Leonard Kleinrock at MIT and at UCLA. The research led to the development of several packet-switched networking solutions in the late 1960s and 1970s, including ARPANET and the X.25 protocols. Additionally, public access and hobbyist networking systems grew in popularity, including unix-to-unix copy (UUCP) and FidoNet. They were however still disjointed separate networks, served only by limited gateways between networks. This led to the application of packet switching to develop a protocol for internetworking, where multiple different networks could be joined together into a super-framework of networks. By defining a simple common network system, the Internet Protocol Suite, the concept of the network could be separated from its physical implementation. This spread of internetworking began to form into the idea of a global network that would be called the Internet, based on standardized protocols officially implemented in 1982. Adoption and interconnection occurred quickly across the advanced telecommunication networks of the western world, and then began to penetrate into the rest of the world as it became the de-facto international standard for the global network. However, the disparity of growth between advanced nations and the third-world countries led to a digital divide that is still a concern today.

    Following commercialization and introduction of privately run Internet service providers in the 1980s, and the Internet’s expansion for popular use in the 1990s, the Internet has had a drastic impact on culture and commerce. This includes the rise of near instant communication by electronic mail (e-mail), text based discussion forums, and the World Wide Web. Investor speculation in new markets provided by these innovations would also lead to the inflation and subsequent collapse of the Dot-com bubble. But despite this, the Internet continues to grow, driven by commerce, greater amounts of online information and knowledge and social networking known as Web 2.0

  38. Cyber says:

    Hmmm…..well that would kinda make sense. You get on a boat with the “luggage” all packed, when your boat gets a leak, and down it goes. So you dump your bag and don the “suit” lock the top jump into the water and proceed to….A. Die from lack of air (as the top gets closed in the video) or B. Leave the top unlocked and wade around…hoping the water does not splash inside and slowly fill the “water proof” suit with water until one of two things happens….fills up and you sink….or fills up and you drown. A regular life vest will be fine… thank you

  39. zipKill says:
