Most of us have watched a Home Shopping Network / QVC or infomercial marathon at one time or another, due to sleeplessness. Here are five of the funniest fails that we’ve come across. Continue reading to see them all.
Before you attempt to demonstrate Wii Tennis on a live television broadcast, definitely be sure the Wiimote is securely latched onto your wrist. This guy was apparently confused as to whether it was a game or real tennis match.
When is a katana not just a katana? When you have no clue what you’re doing and start banging it on a desk, causing a severe injury to your arm. Yes, the host really said the person need emergency surgery in the studio.
The ladder in this infomercial shows just how durable its construction really is, outlasting the person climbing it. Unfortunately, despite the human error, sales most likely plummeted after this fail.
Instead of reading the teleprompter, be sure to actually look at what you’re presenting before showing it to the audience. This fail has the salesman calling out horse, when the actual object is a butterfly.
Sure, it may be 2am where this caller is from, but that doesn’t mean he’s lonely. This guy called specifically to tell QVC that he was using his machine to browse adult-related websites.

Infomercial Fails refer to montage videos or animated GIFs of actors struggling to perform basic tasks, which are often over-exaggerated in a humorous, unbelievable manner.
Infomercials [1] , sometimes referred to as Direct Response TV (DRTV), are long commercials for household items that also contain a phone number, mailing address or website through which people can purchase the advertised product. The word itself was coined in the 1980s by entertainment mogul Paul Ruffino who was known for purchasing program-length blocks of commercial time and, in 1982, the first infomercial aired, selling a line of hair growth products. The first online montage dedicated to pointing out the over-the-top struggles of informercial actors was created by Everything Is Terrible [9] and uploaded to Funny or Die on September 3rd, 2009 (shown below).
A second compilation was uploaded YouTube on April 18th, 2010 by Derek Lieu. Titled "As Seen on TV – a tribute to doing it wrong" (shown below), the video featured clips of actors struggling to complete household chores set to the Beatles song "Help!". As of February 2013, this video has gained more than 2 million views.
The same month, the food blog Serious Eats [10] highlighted both compilations. In 2011, infomercial compilations appeared on Pleated Jeans [11] , Neatorama [12] and I Waste So Much Time. [13] In January of 2012, a single topic blog titled "Infomercial Problems" [14] launched, which featured videos of the strange behavior exhibited in these commercials. In August of that year, the Huffington Post [15] highlighted additional informercial fails . The same month, a photo album of 141 infomercial GIFs was created on Imgur . [2] Two days later, a thread appeared on 4chan 's /wsg/ [3] board (Work-Safe GIF), asking users to post additional infomercial GIFs.
On September 26th, 2012, compilations of informercial fail GIFs were featured on Uproxx [7] and Buzzfeed . [16] . On October 21st, a GIF featuring a family overreacting to a mother spilling soda (shown below) was submitted to the /r/funny [4] subreddit, which managed to gain over 4,700 upvotes and over 600 comments. A day later, the subreddit /r/wheredidthesodago [5] was launched, dedicated to animated GIFs of out-of-context or absurd moments from infomercials. Within three months, the subreddit accumulated upwards of 125,000 subscribers. [6] In December 2012, another collection of GIFs was shared on /r/Funny [17] , gaining more than 4,400 upvotes and 1,600 points overall. Additionally, as of February 2013, there are more than 1,700 search results for the keywords "bad infomercial" on YouTube. [8]

Live TV is a dangerous business to be in. That’s why it’s so hard not to feel a little bad for the snake oil salesmen and women, who are injured, insulted and otherwise humiliated in the name of selling useless knick-knacks on TV.
Still, knowing that their income is derived from swindling the elderly, gullible and lonely lessens the icky feeling that comes from watching the usual FAIL videos. Consider it the Coke Zero of schadenfreude.
