!!Fail Army contains examples of the following tropes:
* AnnoyingLaugh: They have an entire [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdDiLQvUIo8 8 minute compilation]] of laughing camera men.
* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Somewhere in the 2010s the channel acquired a set of hosts who wore wayfarer sunglasses and did intros to the videos, and generally mugged for the camera for inexplicable reasons. It was quietly dropped after a short time.

* CatsAreMean: [[RunningGag Once again]], they have a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1KW3ZkLtuo compilation of cats being assholes]]
* CircusEpisode: "[[https://youtu.be/GMjMRZULtMo Carnival of Excess]]," a compilation of fails relating to carnival games, rides, and circus tricks.
* ClusterFBomb: Countless times, usually after someone gets hurt (especially if it's [[GroinAttack in the groin]]).
* ComedicSociopathy: Most clips involve people getting hurt attempting stunts. It's a miracle they haven't been critically injured or worse. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Doesn't make it any less hilarious though]]
* {{Corpsing}}: Done frequently by the camera men after witnessing such fails.
* EpicFail: Natch. Sometimes inverted with an Epic Win from time to time in a few videos. Sometimes it can even both, if someone gets the upper hand on someone else.
* GroinAttack: Very frequently. Almost happens {{Once An Episode}}.
* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcJasnxksxA 1:20]].
* NoodleIncident: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jKm7D4qfkg At 0:42]] somehow this man ends up on the hood of someone's car. He claims he was run over, [[FridgeLogic but that raises more questions]].
