Guy Fawkes did not succeed in blowing up Parliament, but he was the one who attempted to do so in 1605. He was part of the Gunpowder Plot, which was an attempt by a group of Catholic extremists to assassinate King James I of England, his family, and most of the Protestant aristocracy in one hit by blowing up the Houses of Parliament during the State Opening.
