No matter how much planning goes into something, things can always go wrong, and lots of the time they do. Even the most well-thought-out and executed schemes can have holes. It is always a frustrating experience to have something go terribly wrong, but the important thing is that there was an attempt. That's what Reddit's /r/therewasanattempt strives to prove, anyways.

Some of the ruined plans got ruined for a good reason, maybe someone stopped a criminal or the plan was terrible in the first place. Other times the things gone wrong are just upsetting. Sometimes there was no hope for something going right at all and the plan was always destined to fail. Whatever it may be, the subreddit contains it all. The remnants and ruins of these failed attempts are collected and shared for all to see and be just as disappointed, or perhaps as delighted, as the people who tried. Here are 25 people and their very failed attempts to do… something.
