Very Deep Breaths
When talking about times wherein cameras would capture laughable situations at the most inappropriate time, aquatic sports athletes would have a good chance of being number one. We’re guessing this photo was taken immediately before they dove into the pool, which would explain their expressions. We suppose you’re gasping for some much-needed oxygen. or maybe these pair was just trying to show the audience how daring of a trick they are about to do and try to pull off. The bizarre positions are also probably the product of capturing the competitors in action. Pause and watch every single stance a person do as the pair move along, and you’ll be astonished at how many strange things you’ll notice.
The Face Says It All
In the world of wrestling, a number of unusual things happen. Nevertheless, we’re not certain how such a circumstance might arise. Is this just a genuine screwup? Was this done on purpose, maybe for some sick or weird reason? Both options strike us as absurd.
The Face Says It All
Nevertheless, the scenario can be amusing and also perplexing at the very same time. We as the audience are just going to be left clueless as to what really is happening. The face of this athlete really summarizes how we feel about this photo.
She Clearly Messed This Up
Few things may make you appear as ridiculous as waving a board in reverse. Everyone notices it; everyone notices how blind you appear at the one job you’re trying to do. It’s really bad but at the same time, it’s sadly very funny to see.
She Clearly Messed This Up
In fact, we’d argue that a person’s cluelessness in such photos is probably the most humiliating aspect of all. It’s sad to see also because it seems this cheerleader is genuinely enjoying her job being so pure and cheerful about it. We wonder how she felt when her friends tell her everything.
Holding For Dear Life
Athletes involved in the field of gymnastics may be on par with figure skaters when talking about grace when performing, yet also, like all professionals, they make mistakes. They may look very dignified but the reality of messing things up is very much real.
Holding For Dear Life
Even the finest of gymnasts tumble off the competition balance beam once and then; it’s one of those days that we call a bad hair day wherein things go great at first then everything goes off the rail for some reason. it shows that professionals are just humans too.
He Earns An Acting Trophy For This
With a sport that involves a lot of physicality’s, too much force or inappropriate actions such as this one is an event that you should already expect. We’ve all heard about football players’ strange tendency for fabricating injuries. Most of the time you could sell it but this one is not one of those times.
He Earns An Acting Trophy For This
We’re quite sure this event was an error, and we understand we shouldn’t giggle at people who are going through “pain” like this but just one look and you can’t help but smile.
The Swing Before The Tragedy
Most sports have a sense of physical danger. With all the physicality involved, it’s very easy to get an injury. That’s why one of the most important progressions of sports is the times its ability to improve its gears that protect the players from any of the potential injuries. Despite all the preparations, tragedies such as this will pop up unforeseen.
The Swing Before The Tragedy
Even for the finest of the sport’s pitchers make mistakes every now and then, so you’re far better off using the equipment created to help you avoid them! it’s amazing timing that the cameraman was able to get this picture but it also looks very painful.
The People Looked Shocked
This situation is a case of something which appears to be humorous simply because it appears to be something completely that is not really happening. We’re guessing no one meant to smack this unfortunate baseball guy in the face. The expression on the face of the people in the background doesn’t also help. it looks like they’re shocked that a fan punched a player.
The People Looked Shocked
But clearly, that is not really what is happening here. This is just a case of a wrong place at the wrong time.
That’s Gonna Leave A Mark
Although many people do not consider track running being a risky sport in general, accidents do occur on a regular basis. Regrettably for the competitors, several of the blunders are quite amusing. Of course, this is beneficial for us to have a good laugh.
Thats Gonna Leave A Mark
Then again, we wind up with this comical image of an unknown athlete colliding head-on with a vault. We sympathize with them, yet you have to agree that it gets the chuckles out of you. At the very least, sportsmen can erase their embarrassment by improving their performance the next time.
Hit The Pause Button
Even the best athletes, with their exceptional kinesthetic awareness, would make blunders from time to time. Whenever it takes place, the ball has a good chance of hitting someone mostly in the face area. If this occurs, the competitor may pull a really amusing expression. situations like these are times you wish you had a pause button.
Hit The Pause Button
Nobody wants to make fun of someone who was hit in any part of the body but keep in mind, kids: discomfort is always amusing especially if it’s not happening to you.
Taking Over Goliath
Basketball contains plenty of actions and skills like dunking, however, most of these skills are physical skills. Even yet, much of that can be interpreted metaphorically. Situations like this are figurative in nature, and therefore don’t believe they require much explanation.
Taking Over Goliath
Given the amount of jumping included in a game like basketball, we believe it should be something that is expected to come with the package. Dunking on other people is a sort of a dream come true for these athletes.
Diving For The Save
With all of the hopping and sprinting that sportsmen should be doing, it’s not unexpected that they fall down every now and then. Such humiliating falls frequently result in some very amusing things for the audience like us to have a little fun with.
Diving For The Save
Even if we laugh at the times these athletes make blunders, it doesn’t mean that they are bad players. even at their worst, casual players like most of us wouldn’t stand a chance. Still, it’s fine to have a good chuckle over things like these provided that you appreciate their ability.
One Mistake Leads To Another
Cycling too has its fair share of humiliating mishaps. In truth, such occurrences can be extremely humiliating, as the majority of these are the result of a single person’s error. Picture being the bicycle that fell and subsequently caused the traffic jam you see above!
One Mistake Leads To Another
These are the types of situations wherein you’re thankful you are not fighting for the lead and just be hanging around at the back of the pile. Mistakes made by those in front are clearly going to be more evident. This is a classic situation of one bad thing leading to another.
Sort Of Sticking The Landing
When compared to other athletes in other sports, figure skaters generally are thought to be the most elegant. In some ways, this makes it all the more embarrassing when these elegant movers make a blunder. Sometimes figure skaters, regretfully, have to deal with these issues every once in a while.
Sort Of Sticking The Landing
One of the most essential parts of this sport is the ability to stick the landing and hit that pose. in this example right here, she kind of makes it but she mostly doesn’t but kudos to the effort of trying to make it look good.
Moments Before The Fall
Her expression says everything we need to say: she realizes she’s made a mistake and is stressing out but weirdly oblivious at the same time about what would probably come next. This is another reminder that even the most elegant skater is still human.
Moments Before The Fall
Following that, she was undoubtedly really ashamed for falling right before such a large audience. We’re chuckling at this amusing image, but we have to admit that we feel awful for the skater. No one really wants to be in that same situation right now. We wonder what runs through her mind right before hitting her hinny.
Every Woman For Herself!
When racing on the field, falling down is always awful, but knowing where you land can have a major impact on how terrible it is. It’s similar to the bicycle example we mentioned: there is still value in not always holding first place. Everybody notices when the leader fails.
Every Woman For Herself
This unfortunate track runner appears to have crashed before a group of runners following her, and this is clearly a recipe for something really bad. It’s also amusing, although it’s not really good. We know that we are laughing now but let’s also hope nothing bad or serious happened to these ladies.
Dabbing With Her Legs
You understand, there is something very disconcerting about individuals finding humor in other individuals’ suffering. You witness something that appears to be very horrible and instead of feeling concerned, you giggle. But it’s always a good feeling when you realize everybody is good.
Dabbing With Her Legs
This ice tumble appears to be terrible, but don’t feel worried: this skater was unharmed. we feel bad for it happening but we can’t help but chuckle at the first-ever dab in the history of the sport using legs.
Fighting Over The Ball
To be honest, we have no idea what’s going on with this image. We’re guessing that whoever was taking this photo was just taking random shots and caught two girls fighting over the ball. You’d be astonished at just how many ridiculous looks athletes make unintentionally while going through an event.
Fighting Over The Ball
In reality, many individuals create pretty ridiculous expressions especially during those times that they are so engrossed in the activity that they are going through. That same idea is clearly seen here with two passionate athletes.
A Solid Defensive Stop
Notwithstanding pro athletes’ exceptional skill, the ball can sometimes wind up in places you didn’t want. And, on occasion, those unintentional poses result in images that are really amusing to look at. in this play right here, something quite quirky came from a pretty good defensive stop.
A Solid Defensive Stop
Of course, this player also appeared to take the rock in a spot where it’s definitely not welcome so it’s clear why the offensive player isn’t pleased. Well, what is a bad play for them is a funny scene for us and we are thankful.
Opening Up A Whole New Scene
Given how much people like umpires need to crouch during an actual baseball game, isn’t it amazing that something like this doesn’t occur more frequently? Would they actually call a halt to a game merely so that the umpire could catch a break and fix himself? maybe the rules need to mention something about that.
Opening Up A Whole New Scene
This situation is a typical humiliating situation for everybody, but it’s worse when it takes place at a public event like in America’s favorite pastime. kudos still if he was willing to continue officiating the game despite that right there.
Pow, Right In The Kisser!
The most humiliating aspect of this photograph is that it seems that the player who kicked the ball was the same player who was hit by the ball. Looking at how misshapen the ball looks, it looks like it was a really strong kick made and that definitely was painful. Wouldn’t be surprised if a few teeth were also shaken.
Pow Right In The Kisser
Because the rules of the game state that you cannot touch the ball with your hand, this poor player had no way of protecting himself from the ball lest giving his team a penalty.
Right Between The Eyes
There are certain balls where if you will get hit in the face, you’ll be ok to move on without any problem at all. But there are those games and their balls where in if you find yourself in the wrong place; you might have a moment where everything will flash before your eyes. One of those games is baseball.
Right Between The Eyes
It’s difficult to laugh at this one as the first response we give out is “ouch”! but if you have the skill to leave the pain factor out of this picture, then have a good laugh at it.
Ninja Moves In The Air
Takraw is one of those sports where having ninja skills is definitely a big plus. The game consists of kicking incorporated with flying actions. The kick is both for the offense and the defense. if you happen to catch an event like this on television, chances are you’ll be witnessing amazing and sometimes dorky images like this.
Ninja Moves In The Air
Truth be told, this is very silly to look at but if you see this game in action and not just in photos, your opinion will definitely change.
You’re So Damn Cute!
Athletes who are inclined to make body contact with one another almost always result in some bizarre and humorous images. The majority of these images are unintentional, however, several athletes engage in physical contact with other opponents on purpose.
Youre So Damn Cute
Maybe in the middle of the competition, this athlete here just find his opponent so damn cute that he had to pinch his cheeks to show affection. of course that’s just us making it up but what probably was happening here was an unintentional cute photo.
Not The Best Output From Him
When athletes perform their thing and their art, they always have a goal in mind. However, regardless of how much you practice, there are those situations where in the planned outcome doesn’t always come out. These are the times where in you just sit back and accept with grace the unwanted outcome of your effort.
Not The Best Output From Him
We are hoping he’s okay after hitting his chin just on the place where he was just planning to hold on to. Who knows, perhaps he didn’t really strike it that hard, and so this photo is just deceiving. Funny, yet deceptive.
Icy Cold Pile-Drive
In figure skating, it’s primarily the man that lifts the female merely because of his physical strength, making the task easier for him and that is completely understandable because of basic biology. But this pair right here was probably trying to do something different so that the two of them would stand out.
Icy Cold Pile Drive
We truly believe that this photograph was taken during a fancy maneuver and that hopefully, no accident occurred. this image generally reminds us of those wrestling moves we would see on TV which is like their finishing move. better check the head of the man though, he might have developed a bald spot.
The Very Strong Face Of Power
It’s tough to catch a grip of your own facial features while you’re completely concentrated on your game. This tennis athlete was so concentrated on her service that she completely forgets that there are several cameras pointing at her watching her every single move.
The Very Strong Face Of Power
As any of those casual tennis players would know, a good first serve is very important in setting the tone of the game and so it’s beneficial to really put everything on the court even if that means sacrificing a few good shots of your face.
That’s The Scent Of Competition
Sweating is an essential waste product of high-intensity activities like basketball. when you are playing, you wanna be sweating to warm yourself up and be ready for the game. It’s the same principle when you rev your car up before racing. Although sweat is commonly attributed to unwanted body odor, we have to understand that the stench is actually caused by germs.
Thats The Scent Of Competition
Bacteria induce significant and frequently unpleasant stench as they decompose the chemicals found in perspiration. This move is clearly not intentional but we are curious as to what was running in both of their minds.
Giving A Gentle Push
Soccer will always be bound to players unintentionally kicking another player in one way or another because that is something that is unavoidable in the nature of the game. some of these kicks could be gentle, and some could be just like this.
Giving A Gentle Push
This photo appears to depict this guy attempting to nudge the football with his torso which is a pretty valid move for him. What is not valid is the “gentle” nudge that the opposing player is offering him with his extended foot.
Going The Extra Mile
The majority of people associate pantsing and depantsing with a schoolyard bully or done as a stupid joke. This passionate rugby player chose to bring an old-school maneuver on the rugby field. What’s the end result? the opposing rugby player nearly loses his pants in this amusing image.
Going The Extra Mile
While we aren’t specialists on rugby regulations, tugging someone’s pants down just doesn’t seem right. At least this passionate player could proudly say that he did not leave anything off the court.
Straight As An Arrow
Simone Biles from Columbus, Ohio is perhaps the most accomplished female gymnast in American history making her an icon in the sports culture of the country. Biles is shown in this picture twirling in midair in an acrobatics feat known as the twirling Yurchenko vault.
Straight As An Arrow
The way that she tries to keep that straight position makes her look like an arrow twirling in its apex height and eventually plunging downward. This photo shows that even the most decorated veteran in the sport could still feel those butterflies in their tummies. just look at her facial expression.
Might Be Tired From All The Swimming
Water polo, generally speaking, is frequently said as being a very challenging sport. Participants must stay afloat while attempting to score points by hurling the ball towards the opponent’s goal. It’s also clearly very tiring because you have to hold your breath for periods of time and make sudden movements.
Might Be Tired From All The Swimming
Like this athlete in the picture, participating in this physically demanding game can make participants fatigued. This athlete must be so tired and spent that he basically is sleepy from everything.
Its Part Of The Ritual
Rafael Nadal, one pf the world’s most prominent tennis players from Spain, is noted for his service in all of his games. One thing that is very noticeable about his game is that he has a very consistent serve and part of it is the ritual or routine he has before making his service.
Its Part Of The Ritual
What most people notice about the ritual though is that it seems like he is giving himself a wedgie for some reason. people asked him if that was really part of the routine or if it was something that he could try to replace but it seems he is not even interested in entertaining that.
Focus On The Ball
While many individuals think of table tennis as just another recreational activity, it is really a competitive sport. The sport was officially recognized as part of the Olympics event in the 80s even though the game is a few centuries older. The sport has been recognized as one that commands great physical attributes from its competitors as well as a great level of focus and concentration.
Focus On The Ball
This intense concentration is most likely what caused a top ping-pong athlete to make this amusing look.
It Looks Like She’s Falling
North Korea is host to many of the planet’s most gifted Olympic weightlifters, something most people are unaware of. Competitor Jong-sim probably is the biggest name in the weightlifting game for this country. in the London Olympics, she was besting every other female contestant in her division.
It Looks Like Shes Falling
It’s no wonder as to why Jong-sim produced this amusing look while hoisting roughly 152 pounds above her head. If we didn’t know better we would think that she was actually falling down based on her expression.
Multi-Talented Athlete
Hockey players and athletes aren’t famous for having picture-perfect smiles. Despite the fact that some athletes prefer to use a gumshield or other kind of facial precaution, many others willingly acknowledge that damaged or missing teeth are something that you cannot remove from the game.
Multi Talented Athlete
Teeth damage is quite frequent in hockey, thanks to stray pucks, clashes with competitive people, and ill-fated encounters with wooden sticks the game uses. This player, fortunately, has converted his injuries into a unique party act.
No Blood, No Foul
Basketball, for example, is not a game for the weak of heart and spirit. Situations can get extremely rough between participants during these heated matches. Allisha Gray, pro-American basketball athlete, had no problems about shoving her Japanese competitor out of her way as they meet each other on the court during the London Olympics.
No Blood No Foul
Although some may consider Gray’s actions to be aggressive, some basketball culture would call that a light touch. for some competitors, this game really is no blood no foul.
A Touch So Tender And Sweet
Wrestling athletes are renowned for their toughness, but this shot demonstrates that they can have a soft side despite their physique. The two wrestlers usually face other competitors while still upright in just about all wrestling contests. funny faces are common in these events since a lot of the concerns of the players are on the competition but not on their faces.
A Touch So Tender And Sweet
This brilliantly timed photo depicts two fighters who appear to be dancing the waltz rather than engaging in a deadly full-contact activity.
Playing By Instincts
It can be challenging to choose the right outfit for such a big event as the Olympics. Even if you’ve selected the perfect clothing, your fashion choices may result in an unanticipated fashion emergency. The photo we highlight here is a perfect example of this. we should credit the instincts of the male skater here since he was able to still make it work despite the mishap.
Playing By Instincts
Regrettably, as they were sharing their performance, the billowing cloth of the garment ended up concealing and hindering the vision of the other half. Fortunately, this pair of ice dancers was still safe and that’s the most important thing in this case.
Kissing As A Sign Of Respect
Rugby is a crappy and tumble sport, but that doesn’t indicate athletes aren’t capable of displaying some compassion every now and again. These two young lady rugby players clashed as they attempted to scramble for the game ball which made things look like they gave each other a kiss.
Kissing As A Sign Of Respect
Rugby may truly have originated in England, but it has grown in popularity around the world. Although this image is amusing, we wish that these pair of competitors is well and safe.
A Day In The Life Of A Ball Picker
Whereas most professional sports players (like in tennis) are well-known, their success is largely owing to the contributions of other people, those who are not even there to play the game itself. Ball girls, also known as ball pickers, are those unknown and unspoken participants of the game that contribute greatly to its success.
A Day In The Life Of A Ball Picker
For many of us who watch the game, we think that these people are living the life since they get to witness the game up close and personal, and they get paid for it. But this photo we highlight now clearly shows that their life is not always sunshine and great competition. injuries are also a reality for them.
Like Little Children
Even though nobody appreciates a bitter loser, nobody really enjoys an ungrateful or boastful winner. This photograph was shot of Argentinian football star Carlos Tevez, who appeared to be mocking the other squad or boasting over a goal.
Like Little Children
One Italian media outlet saw him like the little children that would boast because of this gesture. Maybe he would say that he was just really happy about what he was able to accomplish but there are more mature ways to do that.
Those Bruises Are going To Be Deep
It’s difficult yet very essential to keep track of the soccer ball during a football game, even though it’s directly next to you because there’s so much happening all at once. This footballer was attempting to win a match for his side by kicking the ball by the goalie.
Those Bruises Are Going To Be Deep
Sadly, he misjudged the shot and struck the goalie in the face. Considering that those cleats have tall spikes sticking out which was for the benefit of the players, those bruises are going to be very deep.
Keep Your Head In The Game
Rhythmic acrobatics and calisthenics is a unique activity in which performers better their performance with accessories such as rims, balls, streamers, and other materials. Gymnastics and dance are combined in their performances, which are set to accompanying music. Gymnasts’ performances may incorporate hopping, twisting, and precisely timed dancing maneuvers.
Keep Your Head In The Game
One of the most common props that these performers use is a ball which they use for balancing acts (they balance the ball on their body as we see in this picture here).
Never Gonna Let You Go
Professional football (especially in the NFL) is a physically demanding sport, and it can be just as demanding on your equipment. Professional footballers have a difficult time keeping their outfits looking their finest due to a mixture of a multitude of things and stains.
Never Gonna Let You Go
This athlete was never going to let go of his competition even if it means ripping his gear. gears from the professional leagues are usually very sturdy but fabric is still going to be easily ripped especially in the hands of these huge players.
They Caught The Infamous Olympian
Every athlete’s aspiration is to compete in the Olympics. While having the entire planet witnessing you participate can be exciting, it can potentially also be humiliating.
They Caught The Infamous Olympian
This Polish Olympian handball player surely knows what we mean by this as he slid into the goalkeeper’s net during this particular event. His teammates were luckily there to quickly fetch him out. Looking strictly at the picture, we could somehow bring to mind those old pictures of sailors catching a big fish in their nets.
Unorthodox Tactic
Tennis probably isn’t the first sport that comes to mind when folks think of sportsmen making wild jumps and spins. But the main goal of the game is to hit the ball back to your opponent’s side whether by hook or by crook and this athlete clearly understands that. The issue is completing the descent, which plainly did not happen here.
Unorthodox Tactic
Simply put, this athlete completely puts everything on the court and we appreciate that. Though it made us laugh a little, this appears to be harmful to your spine.
Bad Situation At A Very Bad Time
We’d call this situation alarming rather than humorous, however, if you’re game and don’t really mind a little dark comedy at the price of someone’s underpants, there’s still a good sense of humor to be found here.
Bad Situation At A Very Bad Time
Don’t worry too much, he made it through, but this sort of stuff happens surprisingly more frequently than you might imagine. That concept only adds to the fear of motocross. for the regular folk, having a flat tire would be pretty bad. this is just a tad different.
Doggy Loves Frisbee So Much
This type of snapshot can be found in a lot of humorous places. Everything was going great, and a picture is captured just before everything are about to go wrong. And, before people start to ask, yes, working with pooches is a legitimate sport.
Doggy Loves Frisbee So Much
Could we say that it’s the dog’s fault or the handler’s? we must ask first the question of who loves the frisbee more before we answer that. Looking at this, it’s clear that the doggo likes it more, and maybe it’s just trying to take the frisbee back from the handler.
Diving For The Win
Athletes are often placed side by side with their peers, which is one of the nature of competition, to know who is better. there are those instances where if a group of competitors is evenly matched at the skill level, it’s the intangibles that would determine the game.
Diving For The Win
Who wants it more is usually the thing that would determine things and this athlete clearly wants it more to the point that he would be more than willing to go and head-butt the barricade and dive for the win.
The Face Of Pain
We’ve established that the awkwardness of elegant athletes is far more amusing compared to the blunders of regular folks. Events like synchronized swimming are very much susceptible to this since everything about it is based on coordination to produce grace. But maybe the grace and coordination come with the price of pain.
The Face Of Pain
These faces clearly show that there is an unspoken amount of pain in these performances. These photos are quite funny but they also show the unusual side of this sport.
