1.8 installing issues

[MemesAwesom]

I'm trying to install 1.8(yes 1.8 exactly) forge. But, for some reason, it's crashing. 

The error message is:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

could someone help me about why this is happening?

Please update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.
