=== Early viral attempts (2011 - 2013) ===
FailArmy made it's first MaxiDavidVideos video in August 2011 by making content of fail compilations.
=== Rise to fame (2013 - 2020) ===
In January 2013, Estonia published an almost day-long video of herself saying "FailArmy" 100,000 times, which became a video which made FailArmy rise into fame. The ordeal took her 40 hours, with some parts sped up to "keep it under 24 hours". FailArmy also made another MaxiDavidVideos channel called "FailChallenges" (now owned by Maxi due to an agreement) where Maxi and his friends in FailChallenges would make challenges such as attempting to break glass using 100 megaphones, which ended up failing due to health issues. By 2018, FailArmy reached over 27 million subscribers on MaxiDavidVideos.
During the Daniel_Gamer VS S-Music rivalry in 2018, a competition to be the most subscribed channel on MaxiDavidVideos, both FailArmy and Maxi bought billboards and numerous television and radio advertisements to help Daniel_Gamer. During the Characters League 2018-19, Maxi's friends from FailArmy would buy seats for theirselves and their team, whose shirts spelled out "Sub 2 Daniel_Gamer".
=== Mainstream success (2021 - present) ===
On July 5, 2021, FailArmy released the video "10 Years! Thank god it's over." In this video, they make a compilation of the best fails in their 10 years of existence.
On July 29, 2022, FailArmy surpassed 100 million subscribers on MaxiDavidVideos, making it the 5th channel and 2nd non-brand MaxiDavidVideos channel to achieve the milestone, while Daniel_Gamer being the 1st.
On June 2, 2024, FailArmy surpassed Scratchian-based music label and film production company S-Music in subscribers for the title of the most subscribed channel on MaxiDavidVideos. On July 10, 2024, Maxi made a livestream until FailArmy surpassed 300 million subscribers which was done 8 hours after the stream started. 3 days later, FailChallenges uploaded FailArmy's 300 million subscriber special "50 MaxiDavidViders Fight For $1,000,000" which features many well-renowned MaxiDavidViders such as MariaDoesEverything, Hugo Logan and Ukraineball, as well as guest appearances from Maxi. This video reached 71 million views in the first 24 hours.
