Fail Blog (typeset as FAIL Blog) is a comedic blog website originally created by Leechio in January 2008.[3][4][5] The blog steadily grew in popularity, and in April 2008 was sold to Pet Holdings Inc., owner of I Can Has Cheezburger?.[6] The site prominently features pictures and videos of someone (or something) failing at something they are supposed to do, or displaying blatant stupidity or incompetence, captioned with the words “fail”, “epic fail” or “X Fail” (X being the activity that the person failed at), although occasionally there are some cases of “wins”. The first “fail” was uploaded to the website on January 3, 2008.[7] Since this date, the site has grown rapidly, with the style of the images used on the site growing to become a popular internet meme, and many other smaller sites have spurred after the meme’s popularization.[5][6][8][9]
Fail Blog won two Webby Awards in 2009, for People’s Voice in Humor and Weird.[10]
Fail Blog’s first book, Fail Nation: A Visual Romp Through the World of Epic Fails (ISBN 9780061833991), was released on October 6, 2009.
In July 2009, Fail Blog received an email from Guinness World Records requesting that a Fail Blog entry, regarding the Guinness record webpage for “Most Individuals Killed in A Terrorist Attack” having a “Break this record” link, have the screenshot of the webpage removed because it contained the trademarked Guinness World Records logo. Fail Blog promptly complied with the removal of the image, replacing it by an edited version with all notable references to Guinness record webpage blurred out, and posted an entry on the incident (in an obvious manner of ridicule).[12][13][14]
Fail Blog has had some issues with the video hosting site YouTube;[15] it then began hosting its videos with Viddler.[16] Its YouTube channel has since been restored, and users can also view videos there, though Fail Blog does not usually link to the YouTube videos anymore within the blog itself.[17] In early October 2009, Fail Blog added links to each of their video posts to versions of the same video hosted in different video hosting sites, including YouTube and MySpace Video.
