A tipping dresser, an escalator and a shower curtain in AFV's 'Fails That Make A Bang'

The comments came in about five times faster than on a usual first day, and one of the most liked is a joke about a kitchen that never gets a break.

Fails That Make A Bang 💥 #afv #fail #funny

A third fast start in a week. As we reported here, 'Dads Being Dumb' and a run of security camera fails both opened far ahead of the usual pace on AFV Shorts, the official shorts channel of America's Funniest Home Videos. Now "Fails That Make A Bang 💥 #afv #fail #funny" has done it too, passing 200,000 views in its first 14 hours.

The description asks a simple question: did you see these surprises coming? Going by the comments, most people did not. Viewers single out a man on an escalator, a mishap with a shower curtain, a dresser that tips over and the awkward laugh that follows it, someone laughing from behind a file cabinet, and a trucker one viewer compares to Bruce Lee. Another wonders why anyone would do their workout while holding onto the kitchen cupboards.

The talk moved quickly. The short drew comments about five times faster than a usual first day on the channel. Among the most liked is a running joke that this one kitchen has been taking damage for years. One viewer offers a theory of the genre: any fall that sends the feet into the air turns into a cartoon. A few go practical instead, reminding everyone to anchor dressers to the wall and to keep electrical appliances away from water.

Saturday's other uploads stayed far behind it. A dad a little too excited about a trip to Home Depot came next, ahead of kids' sports bloopers and a golf fail. Two scare pranks tagged for Halloween show the channel already turning toward October, with one asking viewers whether they would scare their own mom like that.
