The most failed boxer
Guterre was the first player in boxing history to knock himself out in 47 seconds.
In February 1977, at the Golden Glove Competition in Michigan, USA, Gertree confronted Oredy. Both were performing boxing in public for the first time, so they were both very nervous.
The bell rang, Andre rushed to Oredi under the clamor of the audience, taking the lead in the attack, he threw his fists in the air, fell down in the ring due to excessive force, unconscious, and the referee sentenced him to defeat after counting to 10 seconds.
The most failed weather forecast
In January 1979, the Arab News published the following weather forecast after the floods in Jeddah:
"We are very sorry that we can't make a weather forecast, our weather forecast data comes from the airport, but the airport has been closed due to the weather, so whether we can make a weather forecast depends entirely on tomorrow's weather."
The most failed investigative operation
In 1978, the Downcaster Police Department in the United Kingdom installed a secret camera at a tennis club to track down a repeat offender, because the mysterious thief often stole clothes in the locker room.
As a result, when the police played the video, instead of seeing the thief, they saw a naked policeman wandering around in the locker room because his clothes had been stolen.
The most failed anti-theft device
In the summer of 1978, Anti-American Airlines devised a trap in view of the fact that ground crews would sneak into tarmac planes and steal small bottles of whiskey.
The company's security personnel installed an alarm clock on the plane's liquor cabinet, and when the cabinet door opened, the alarm clock stopped. This way the company can know the right time for the ground staff to come and steal the wine.
However, they forgot to tell the staff on the plane, and as a result, during the flight, a flight attendant mistakenly thought it was a time bomb and immediately reported it to the captain, who immediately made a decision, landed the plane urgently in Berlin, and instructed 80 passengers to get off the plane.
A spokesman for Anti-American Airlines said the small bottles of whiskey on the plane were worth 17 pence each, and the emergency landing cost the company £6,500.
The most failed police dog
In 1978, Latour of the United States retired as a fierce-looking, large police dog. During his career as a police dog, he refused to accept any orders to assault or anger gangsters.
The police officer in charge of Latour admitted that "it just wouldn't come forward and attack the gangsters, and every time I went to catch the gangsters, and it waited on the side." ”
The UK also has two police dogs, "Leddy" and "Poya", which can be compared to Latour. In 1967, officers took the two dogs to track down drug dealers. They caught the drug dealer in the mountains, and when the officer questioned the drug dealer, the drug dealer gently touched "Lady" and "Boya" to calm them down.
In the end, when the police officer comes forward to handcuff the drug dealer, "Lady" and "Poya" rush forward and bite the officer's thigh, so that the gangsters leave calmly.
The most failed construction project
Residents of the Bene community in Yorkshire, England, have long wanted their homes to be surrounded by walls to protect their right to privacy.
In early 1979, several workers came to the Benay community in trucks with hoes, shovels and timber. It took them 5 days to build a 3.5-foot-tall, 100-yard wall.
As a result, on the day the project ended, they found that there was no exit for the truck to drive out. "You can see them look at the fence, they look at the truck, you look at the truck, some of us have long thought it's weird, but we don't want to disturb their work," the residents said.
The workers returned the next morning, demolished part of the fence, and drove the truck away.
The most failed firefighting operation
In 1973, a fire broke out on Second Street in Hampshire, England, and local residents called the fire brigade for rescue. But all the members of the team went to participate in a drill called "Green Field Operation".
So the local residents called the Wellington Fire Brigade in the neighboring county for help, and the team promised to come immediately. But the fire truck was just halfway up when it suddenly caught fire and burned, smoke billowed and the firefighters jumped out of the car.
Although the car is loaded with 400 gallons of water, the pump is also installed on the car, which does not play a role at all.
At this time, the Hampshire Fire Brigade returned from the exercise, just happened to run into this "mud bodhisattva crossing the river" car, the crowd quickly stopped to fight the fire, coincidentally, the water on their fire truck was used up in the exercise, and there was very little left. In the end, we had to borrow a few fire extinguishers from the vehicles driving on the side of the road to get it done.
The result of the fire in Hampshire was extinguished by local residents by passing buckets.
The most failed pc
Computers do increase productivity, but the addition of a computer used to calculate the salaries of Councillors in 1975 was installed by the Evan County Council in the United Kingdom.
The computer's initial mistakes were modest, paying a school guard £75 an hour instead of 75 pence. Then it poked the basket so big that it went on for 7 weeks without paying a restaurant clerk.
As the situation got worse, the computer took matters into its own hands and raised a guard's weekly salary to £2,600. The guard had just returned the paycheck and received a check for £2,600, which was checked in Shanghai and verified correctly.
The final situation is out of control. A headmistress receives a check every week that should be her annual salary, the salaries of many heads of parliamentary departments have become less than that of co-workers, and some staff pay more income tax per week than they earn for a year.
In February 1975, 280 parliamentary staff went to parliament to protest, and only 8 staff members had normal salaries at the time, but they also went on strike to protest.
