I've just been pointed in the direction of this web-based office diversion....

FAIL Blog - Fail and Epic Fail Pictures and Videos: Failblog.ORG

in particular, this one made me laff out loud and drew strange looks from everybody in our open plan office...

It isn't funny at all.

The tw@t has a punishment for vandalism that will stay with him for the rest of his life. If he had been brought up properly, he would be able to see how stupid vandalism is.

Poor parenting and permanent damage is no laughing matter.

I don't think its got anything to do about parenting.

each to their own, but I reckon if this were a poll the majority would vote it was funny....

agreed the stupid thug has a shameful painful punishment, and I hope that the masses witnessing his gross idiocy realise it's not big and it's not clever to go arguing with one of nature's irresistable forces....

I don't agree it's down to not being brought up properly.

Kids do stupid things.

Kids with a gang of mates and video camera will do even more stupid things.

What's REALLY stupid about this, is that he hasn't even got £250 from Harry Hill for a 15 seconds of fame on Saturday evening TV!

and it does look like those concrete panels made quite a snug fit to the stationary one.....

Ididn't find this funny last week and i don't now.

It makes me feel a bit sick that a stupid boy probably lost his leg showing off to his mates.

I think it's a shame that a number of people seem rather callously think that he deserved to be permenantly disabled for the rest of his life.

Maybe these people don't remember what it was like to be young and stupid.

Maybe I don't remember what it was like to be young and stupid, but I CERTAINLY didn't go around maliciously damaging other people's property. I accept that everyone has a different view, but personally I think he deserved it, and got everything that was coming to him. Call it karma...
Maybe its a little harsh on him, but he did it, no one else.

Well, he may well have been a total arse before the incident, but I'll bet that he'll have changed his outlook a fair bit afterwards.

Loosing a leg will change your mind about a lot of things....

When I was young and stupid (and you can shut it Oliver...) my idea of being a little scallywag was totally harmless. Smashing up someone's stuff is more than being young - it's criminal. The fact that most of us think the little shit deserved it and find it funny is an indication that maybe we live in harder times and that people are happy that the little wankers that make everyday life so miserable are getting their just desserts.

I am sure that if it were your parent's wall that was being kicked into rubble you wouldn't rush out to help them become better people. You'd be angry.

Personally I hope the little tosser is alive and well, and that he learnt from his adventure. The fact that I learnt not to be a vandalising little shit means I don't have to walk with a limp nowadays, but such is the penalty of not listening.
