Holy shiat! Did that guy who jumped on the table in the cafeteria walk away from that fall? It looks like he may have paralyzed himself.

A lot of just desserts in this video.

11:45 has some deeper meaning, I'm sure of it.

How the hell can you watch this and complain about parents bubble-wrapping their kids up in a different thread?

It was great to see some of these full screen as opposed to watching them tiny-sized on Tosh.0. And for that Subby, we thank you.

1:50: "That's it!" she yells AFTER the kid does a faceplant.

You know, I read about the people paying off other people's layaway at K-Mart, giving away hundreds of thousands of dollars to those in need, all that stuff... And then I watch that video.

Seriously if a large comet just wiped out the Earth we really wouldn't be losing all that much.

How does the human race continue?

Weird. The video works despite the fact that clicking the "View at Youtube" selection goes to a link that doesn't work heh.

One of the few videos on Fark that I was actually sad to see end.

Fail videos that fail is so meta. Being meta is too mainstream now, which makes it ironic, which is quintessential hipster, which I hate. But I do love fail videos.

That one where the antelope or whatever ran into that biker was pretty crazy.

i'm wondering what the heck 8:59-9:04 is about. alls i know is it makes me laugh for some reason.

That's easy. Bubble-wrapping kids means that we won't have any more of these videos in the future.

Where's the video of the magician who is tied to a race car and doesn't get himself free in time and goes for a drag and almost dies?
 
2011-12-19 02:33:48 PM
Good video, really glad they didn't put any music on it.
 
2011-12-19 02:57:19 PM
Pretty good stuff, but I'm really curious why some of those were filmed. Yeah, if you're trying to do a Jackass-style stunt, you'd film it. But some of the other stuff like the large truck falling into a ditch?

unchellmatt: ... And then I watch that video.

Meh, come on. Most of these people were just having fun. And probably were able to laugh at themselves after farking up royally.

Oh god, I can't stop watching that kid at 10:10-10:12, filming some sort of martial arts demo, and he tries to Bruce Lee/van Damme himself back onto his feet and smacks his head into the table above. That and the bicycle jump-fail-bail-flip into the lake are my favourites.
 
2011-12-19 03:37:54 PM
I felt bad for that girl that fell off her bike, faceplanted the dirt ramp, the went flying down into the lake below.

But then I think about what would happen if she hit the ramp cleanly.. she would have went soaring down into the lake on her bike? That's not exactly a safe alternative.

What is with all the people on the highway with running video cameras?

BiggityBanninated: What is with all the people on the highway with running video cameras?

They're very common in many areas as a way of preventing being wrongly accused.

Seth'n'Spectrum: How the hell can you watch this and complain about parents bubble-wrapping their kids up in a different thread?

Because both instances could easily be avoided by teaching your kids from the earliest moment possible to avoid doing stupid shiat. My kid doesn't need to be dressed like a linebacker if he's smart enough to not try a somersault off a roof onto the bed of a moving truck . "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" applies to this very much.

Its a guy trying to fake an accident for an insurance scam.

Anyone know what's going on at 8:03?
 
2011-12-19 07:22:46 PM
Epic fails, but the ones that involve some poor child getting a face-full of pain just make me hurt inside.

Think of it as evolution in action.
 
2011-12-19 09:13:54 PM
Wow, that was pretty damn awesome. Painful to watch at times.

Also, the two guys twirling on the hand rails gives me a great idea for buttsex.
 
2011-12-19 09:21:15 PM
I had to stop the video after the car scene at ~4:20. Holy farking shiat.

GreatGlavinsGhost: Anyone know what's going on at 8:03?

Looks like an electrical transformer going "foom" and some fool is near it. I can't imagine that ending well. Well done, maybe...

Actually, its a three phase, high voltage switch being opened - perhaps 138KV. Some switches are not designed to break "load" or high current. The electric tries to keep flowing across the opening switch. If the arc flashes to a ground surface (base of the insulator)....Kaboom!

I couldn't watch it all. That kid on the cafe table, that's just horrible.
 
2011-12-20 01:18:27 AM
Can we just go back to calling these accidents already?
 
2011-12-20 01:00:25 PM
Life lessons learned from this video:

1. Light Poles and street signs aren't well secured
2. Never ride anything being pulled by a motor vehicle
3. Shopping carts do not go down stairs
4. Professionals aren't
5. Paragliders can't land

No no no it is ok he was from Stanford.



The guy pushing on a pull door though is my favorite
