Fail or Fails at life is a fad that depicts various instances of failure accompanied by The Price is Right's losing horns. Images used for fail sites are usually static, and they often consist of either pictures imported from other websites or printscreened images with MS Paint captions. The "fails at life" concept did not originate with YTMND, but much like the emo fad, it caught on quickly and adopted fad audio unique to YTMND.
The original site showed a person cosplaying as Cloud Strife, but the site was deleted in 2005 when accounts were deleted for upvoting/downvoting. After the original fail site, many followed at a high rate. Part of the appeal is likely due to the ease with which one can create a fail site. Gradually, sites (using animated images) began using the fail horns at the end of other sound clips as a sort of punchline. One of the most famous and innovative uses of the fail sound is in HTTP 404 MAN NOT FOUND (DOG)
Most sites that use the fail music are considered to be of poor quality. To reflect this, some ytmnd users have created sites that parody fails at life [1].
