Humans of Failing

Here you can see one of two Australian bank robbers, also known as "Dumb and Dumber". Yeah. They earned themselves these nicknames.

Anthony Prince (20) and Luke Carroll (19), jailed last month after federal prosecutors released photos of them which they jokingly took in the toilets of a McDonald's shortly after stealing $170,000 in cash and terrorising bank tellers with fake pistols. Although they were wearing masks, the tellers recognised their broad Australian accents. Didn't take long until jail.

They made it just too easy to get a post on our page.

A man desperately wanted some beer. He decided that he'd just throw a concrete block through an off-licence window, get some beer, and run.

So he lifted the block and heaved it over his head at the window. The concrete block bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious.

It seems the off-licence window was made of Perspex. The whole event was caught on videotape and the man was nominated for 'Loser of the Week'.

Do we feel bad for him?

About Steve Jobs's failures and successes

You may think you know this man, and you probably do.

Steve Jobs found success in his 20s when Apple became a massive empire and some years later, Apple’s board of directors decided to fire him. From his own company.

What seemed to be an irrecoverable failure turned out to be the reason why he founded a new company, NeXT, which was later acquired by Apple.

He reinvented the company’s image and should be remembered for his failures as well as his successes.

What a fail..Yet a win!

We are so used to hear success stories – be it a start of a profitable company, received prize in a lottery, or lucky escape from an accident – the examples are endless. But what if all the most important lessons cannot be learned from others' accomplishments? What if they are hidden deep down in moments when things are not going as smoothly as they are supposed to?

Humans of Failing will make you smile, laugh, and remind that no perfection can be achieved without having some missteps on the way. So sit back, while enjoying the greatest stories, because we know that you will not want to make the same mistakes.

Yours truly,
The Humans of Failing team
