5 Unfortunate Photo Fails That Will Make You Look Twice

Have you ever have your picture taken and demanded to see how it came out before it’s posted on Instagram or Facebook? The rise of digital photography has meant we get a second or third take if we don’t like the way a particular picture has turned out. Unfortunately, we don’t always catch everything.

Take, for example, the subjects of these twenty hilariously unfortunate photos. Many of them may have been so busy checking out their face that they didn’t notice the awkward hand placement, or the nude tourist sunbathing in the back of the shot. In any case, let them serve as a warning to you: always check your pics for unfortunate weirdness.


5. Cooling Off

Before you call CPS, we’re pretty sure that’s just a water spout on the side of the building.


4. Ice To See You

Let this be a lesson in timing out photos correctly. This ice-skating routine was probably beautiful and majestic. But because somebody snapped the pic at the just the wrong time, we end up with her head coming out of his rear-end.


3. Summer Games

Now we come to another “unfortunate images” phenomenon: unfortunate DVR pauses. With twenty-four or more images per second flickering across the screen, you can find risque moments like this one just about anywhere you look.


2. Presidential Pants Adjustment

Even former heads of state aren’t immune to poorly-timed photos. George was probably just having his suit adjusted, but that doesn’t explain why the guy behind him is standing so close.


1. Let Me Get That for You

Most of the pictures so far have involved some kind of optical illusion. This one, unfortunately, is 100% real. Sure, it was only an accident, but having someone else’s finger up your nose is never a pleasant sensation.
