Encyclopédie des expressions« Prendre des vessies pour des lanternesCasser les pieds »Casser la baraque
Réussir quelque chose avec un franc succès.


L’expression contemporaine “casser la baraque” n’a pas d’origine clairement définie.

Il existe une supposition, toutefois non certifiée, comme quoi l’origine de cette locution serait les “chamboules-tout” des fêtes foraines. Ainsi casser la baraque du forain, tout exploser, serait positivement synonyme de succès.

“Casser la baraque” se dit lorsque l’on a gagné brillamment, lorsque l’on a surpassé les autres sans conteste, bref, lorsque l’on a fait un malheur
