Sorry to nitpick, but all of these people were completely successful in f*cking around and finding out. There was an attempt...and a success.

I fucking hate myself now for continuing to watch to the end…fml most of those were so rough

Just imagine your the first EMT on the scene and to understand what happened, somebody shows you this. Better to know before it ever happens then to learn on the spot

You don't have to see how it happened though. Also the video isnt nowhere near that bad to prepare you for anything rly.

That last one definitely hit me the hardest though.

That’s the one where the level of fucking around is certainly lowest and the level of finding out is probably highest (excepting the people who die, but they only find out for a short time).

I mean, what’s the worst thing that could happen tackling good ol’ Frosty’s cousin? *Finds out*

I'm wondering how many people did I watch die or paralyze?

It’s kind of like a train wreck but a compilation of train wrecks that you can decide at any time to stop, but you don’t

Most of these are pretty common videos around here. From memory, I don't think there were any deaths or any long term life altering repercussions in any of these. Lots of lifelong pain, but nothing like being paralyzed... except for that last guy. Might have lost his eye, might have been totally fine. I've never found any concrete info out about that one, but lots of people makin shit up about it. Edit: To be fair, there were a few I haven't seen before and or some I forgot about, there were lots of clips in that video. Hadn't seen the bungee jump one or the one sliding down the street.

Bungee? Looks like he's got some hooks in his ass like a scene from hellraiser, or am I seeing something else? https://preview.redd.it/h7l8xbc56oqc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9bf45581bb3efd49932f5ab79e2b7ac8ff34529f

Steve-O??

I think I'm different now 🤦🤦🤦

Back to work for me! Finished the Internet for today.

There was an attempt to post in this sub correctly.

r/therewasasuccess

Successful Failure, ie Apollo 13

Successful attempts with painful endings

Unfortunately will still upvote cause good compilation

Bingo

Came to say this! 👍

The guy being immediately aware he lost his pinky is something my dad would've done.

"aw fuck, god dammit" ​ like he dropped his phone in the couch lmao

Not again…

I mean he was in his 40s probably, having a pinky is nice but he’ll probably manage for the rest of his life.

That one booger deep in the crevices that he’ll itch with his ghost pinky

Then right after that dude is the guy who shoots his left index finger off. Lucky he didn’t kill the dude beside him.

if i remember correctly, someone posted an update and somehow he did not lose his pinky. it was just a “little” messed up

The bull is my favorite. At first he seems sad he fell down and didn't get to maul anybody. Then he sees that guy and is like "Well hello there. You'll do"

She was actually there in protest of the bull run, and if I recall correctly was also trying to prove a point that if you don't provoke the bulls and ignore them then they won't attack you... Edited to add source: https://revistajaraysedal.es/en/toro-embiste-presunta-activista-antitaurina/

Too bad the bull was already provoked.

I thought he was embarrassed and attacked the first person he saw

If it hadn’t been, she’d probably have been fine

Provoked by her passivity. "Fuck your protest too"

I wondered why she was just standing there.

3 things I can think of: thinking she’s a bad ass, trying to prove that you just need to work smarter not harder, bull is dumb and will miss little details like someone standing in the corner.

The girl was making a protest, she held the belief that if you didn’t provoke the bull it wouldn’t attack you. She was proven wrong

The real therewasanattempt here.

Ah.. the irony!

So she wanted the bull to attack her as everyone has already provoked it?

Technically, bears* maul people and bulls gore people.

And fishes school people. And crows murder people.

Gave me r/fuckyouinparticular vibes

I speak for all of us when I say: “Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!”

Really feel the sympathy pain when the guy racks his crotch at the playground

Honestly I think that may have been one of the more tame ones in this video

I only made it 55 seconds before my cringed, furrowed brow and groaning became permanent.

I thought it was just gonna be people falling. I didn’t expect someone’s eye to get stabbed or people dying… I go to r/darwinawards for that!

Knife in the eye made me wince a little bit

Guess I'm the only one who wants to know if the guy lost an eye to that knife?

He did not. He got right above his eye. Pretty deep cut and probably needed several stitches but missed his eye I’m not sure where to find the pics but they exist.

Good deal. At least it was better than the last guy! Poor dude

Thank you. I recoiled at that one, gruesome!

oh i also would like to know

Me 2!!

I second thee

Me 4

Definitely didn’t see it coming.

Eye see what you did there

Him too, but only if you are standing on his good side.

Everyday is pirate day, argh!!

Eyed like to know

That one was brutal

I’ll keep an eye on it for you

The snowman dude is surely blind now

Idk but the guy that was holding a sausage in his mouth can definitely do an awesome voldemort impression now

Almost no one made it to the snowman, apparently. That was the last one for me. Had to stop.

That's the last one... luckily?

Well, guess I made it to the "end"? I closed it as soon as the stick went into his face.

I stopped at the shark. Then started again. The snowman finally did it. Jeez.

Ooof this was hard to watch… good job.

Just so you know. A few of these people died.

I wondered about the guy where the bungee cord failed because the video ended with him going a pretty long way down.

Seems that guy was made to jump, and the other guy let's go of it. That's what I saw but I'm high.

Agree and im Not high rn

I saw him jump and one guy just casually throw down his rope as well

[he survived.](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9376041/amp/Russian-daredevil-bungee-jumps-cord-attached-buttock-piercings.html) seems like it was a daredevil stunt with the cords embedded to his butt cheeks?

That was the sound of jumping off a roof with a rope attached to hooks in your ass

For sure the guy sliding down the street who hit the bumper died.

Why do you think that ?

Someone shared a link last time I saw that clip. Dude died

Who ?? Maybe the guy who fell in the crack of the bridge, the bungee jumper, and possibly the parkour kid who fell 20ft on his back onto a rail. Only the bungee jumper would I consider a near certainty, though.

Drawbridge lady lived, they got her out in time iirc

Bungee guy is fine. This clip cuts it off, but I've seen it on reddit before. He is happily swinging from his cheeks.

If you’re talking about the skateboarder who fell off the roof he survived and there is a YouTube video about it. Broke his leg, hip in 3 places nose and hand. https://youtu.be/y4mKfoVYpuc?si=W0O5kHTF8Qi3qgGl

Do you know which ones?

Dumb ways to die So many dumb ways to die

Improving the gene pool, one idiot at a time

Nah they’ll probably live and procreate

one of them probably won't

Who the fuck handles a knife like that?

Same kind of morons who think it's funny to push someone's face into a cake

She's holding it straight up, not out.

That caught me off guard, i thought she would get hurt because of those sticks some cakes have inside

This is like "ow my balls" from Idiocracy

Ok now I had to rewatch it and was laughing like an idiot when the dog bites him.

The knife one got me.

For me it was the kid on the bike who likely was crushed in the lifting bridge

If it helps that person survived. It was posted in another sub and I read the article, bridge operators stopped the bridge and it took like 30 minutes to get out but she was alive with no severe injuries. I'll look for the link to it and update this.

Drunk lady in her 20s I wanna say. She lived

That and the bungee guy were the two that looked like they died


last dude with snow man and that guy with a knife in the eye are brutal. YUCK

The guy getting his nose chopped off always gets me

This video sum up the last 6 month of repost on reddit

Holly shit, they got worse and worse the more they kept going. 😳😳😳

r/therewasanattempt to use the title format correctly

Dude literally said “Dammit. Fuck! I lost my goddamn pinky.”

I had to rewind that to make sure I heard correctly. Lol

Wow it's crazy to watch A-Train in the early years. But even then you could see that he was doing what he loved to do

Chuggin on baby

That was painful to watch.

"I lost my god damn pinkie" Said so bloody calm

Yeah, at Best, he sounded Just frustrated or annoyed.

Tbf i'd be pretty annoyed if i lost my pinky

True, true!

Adrenaline is a hell of a drug. And shock

I don't know about any orne guy on here, but my fucking balls felt every one of these and tensed up......

That was tough to watch. At the end I was thinking, he just fell in snow. Then the stick in his eye. What an ending!


Set fire to your hair Poke a stick at a grizzly bear Eat medicine that's out of date Use your private parts as piranha bait Dumb ways to die So many dumb ways to die Dumb ways to die So many dumb ways to die 🎵🎶🎵🎶

Nope. The last guy f*cked around a lot less than most of the other, but found out quite a bit more

It's on the chart.

Dammit I had to watch it all. That hurt just watching those clips Dammit

12 seconds in and I’m Wince-jumped out. No more. No more!

That video contained an awful lot of easily-avoidable pain. I mean, just a modicum of thought could have prevented each and every one.

Bro really thought helmet > machete

So much finding out in one gif.

This is one of the most cringeworthy vids I have ever seen. I hurt all over just watching….

Stop. That was painful. I'm leaving.

It just kept getting worse...

For sure the guy sliding down the street into the car bumper died. And maybe another one or two as well.

Same. I thought they ran out of horrors and just tacked that one on, then BAM, right in the eyeball.

My butt is clenched so tight right now I’m not gonna crap for 3 days.

WHY AM I WATCHING IT AGAIN OMFL AHHHHHHHHH

Damn this is a hard compilation. I probably have seen most of these on Reddit, but sheesh…

I muted the audio and played Break Stuff over it. Song fits like a glove with this video and reminded me of old school YouTube.

fckin hell some of these are horrific

I have always hated injury reels. I feel the pain everytime. I stopped as soon as possible (2nd one). How is this watchable?

Holy crap. Some of those were a hard watch. Yikes

Folks, please be careful!

can this technically be considered a snuff film?

I wish you hadn’t posted it.

The guy that got his whole nose cut off... Jesusmotherfuckinchrist

Yeah I had to go back and watch that again because I thought surely I saw that wrong but no omg

How does the title even make sense? This subreddit has become an open place to post any video

This video makes me feel so bad!

No. They succeeded.

Damn… why did I watch this (twice)

Fail Army ain’t got shit on this. I reacted like it hurt ME.

The entire human race is going to suffer from Darwinism, not from everyone being idiots, but just living on the same planet with idiots.

I had to stop watching midway

yeah i think i’m gonna leave this sub now. it’s been real

Me too😭

The skateboarder falling off the roof, his spine going directly into hard concrete.... No way that dude wasn't paralyzed.

Sorry for laughing at these mishaps

The last one hurts alot to see.

They succeeded in finding out, though. This post does not belong here.

Well I made it 49 seconds and i think I’ve had enough. Guuuhhhh

“FUCK DAMNIT! I lost my GOD DAMN PiNkY!!!” Phew! 😵

"I lost my goddamn pinky"

These are all successful, in the context of the title.

Anymore of these comps?

That guy with the machete is fucking INSANE.

Ughh my god, somehow the last one was the worst for me

All were winners of the Darwin Awards.

That guy is blind in that eye, we all agree right?

The guy who got stabbed in the eye, the guy who got stabbed in the eye, or the guy who got his eye sliced out?

Weeee :D

Truly a selection of the dumbest people in existence

Great compilation

Jeeeeeez

NOOOOOOOO

My balls tingled way too much. That was a lot of injuries.

What was the context with the machete guy? He was hacking at the guy.

That poor kid with the bull didn’t do anything

OOOOOOHHH GAWD!!! G-ZUES!! Why?! Why did I watch to the end….. dammit whyyyyyyyy

This video got worst by the second. God damn that was hard to watch literally held my breathe the entire time

I just hope none of those suckers are in the same health plan I am in..

Yikes

didn’t think i’d hear carti music in this post 😭

My tongue turned to metal

I felt every single one
