The 1997 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. There had been high winds that caused problems throughout the day. As you can see, the folks holding on the Barney were already having a hard time keeping him under control. As it happens, Barney got caught on a lamppost and suffered a fatal stab wound to the right side. And then, NYPD came in to finish the job
Life is a series of successes and failures. Sometimes our failures are obvious, and they hurt. Other times they need to be pointed out to us. Those failures are the ones that make us feel the dumbest. If you want to see more people who tried hard and failed harder, then here ya go.
According to AL.com, a girl named Darby tried to prank her friends by wearing the head of a Barney costume.
The joke didn't go quite as planned when the costume head slipped down below her shoulders leaving her both trapped, and forced to walk around with T-rex arms.
Eventually, when her family and friends couldn't help her, they piled in a mini-van and headed down to the fire department where this hilarious scene took place:
Looks like Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will be black listed for parent's with small children for a few years.
Thanks to strong winds in Manhattan during the annual parade, the people walking with the Barney float lost control. The giant balloon swayed into a street light, puncturing a giant hole in Barney's side. #Rest In Pieces
