With tech-savvy phones, it takes a few clicks to get a new picture for uploading and sharing on social media. It all seems like fun and games until your posted image turns out to have something unique in the background that wasn't noticed previously.
Since it's too late to recall it, the photo has probably gone viral on the internet. The fact that it was trending might have alerted you to the anomaly. These are some of those photobombs or accidents that keep us laughing.
Go On, Don't Mind Me!
Some people are always deliberate in photobombing, but by this man's appearance, we're confident he was minding his own business. While some people may walk by more often than usual, when the lens captures them, they become the center of attraction instead of the women.
These girls must understand how sometimes the beach gets so busy that taking a sizzling photo may prove challenging. More often than not, one or two people may walk right into their pictures and mess up the image.
Head First Surfing Method
We're aware of people who do scuba diving for recreation and those who do it as a sport. What's certain is that what the man in the background is doing comes nowhere close to the discipline. His unorthodox move ruined the family photo.
Clearly, the family is trying to get everyone in line for the picture, but that's the least of our concerns. The surfer takes our laughter, and we worry about his surfing skills if he stumbles into waist-deep water.
Breezy Day Out
Sometimes, it takes a breezy day outside with friends to relax your body while chatting and having some drinks. While others may love doing that with less showy outfits, some have their bodies fully covered but may have some parts showing inappropriately.
This man was so engrossed in the chat that he didn't realize his pants were slightly lowered and someone was taking pictures behind him. He probably wasn't feeling that breezy, but this girl shouldn't have made fun of him.
Three Is a Crowd
Sometimes we get so carried away that we overlook some minor details that are nonetheless significant. This photo's original owner had it on their refrigerator but didn't realize there was a third person in it for all the six years it was there.
These two lovebirds were so engrossed in their selfie goof that they didn't notice the eyes prying between her shoulder and his chin. The picture took us back to a scene in the 1980 horror movie "The Shining."
Human Horse Riding
This family posted a picture, unaware of one of them appearing smaller in the background and looking like someone piggybacking on the woman. The only thing missing to complete the image is a cowboy hat to give him a yee-haw vibe!
We're sure the guy who seems to have wandered off in his thoughts had no horses on his mind. In any case, if he were to ride one, he would need to get ready for the animal's 27-mile-per-hour speed!
The Birds and The Bees
This girl was out and about with her folks and grandma, having the time of their lives on safari or at the giraffe center. When they decided to take some pictures of their daughter, the parents found themselves becoming wildlife photographers.
They may use it to teach her about the birds and the bees. While some animals fear mating in the open, others don't mind. In fact, when their cycle comes around after going on heat, they go right at it at any place.
Sunny Day in the Restroom
While sunglasses are ideal when going on vacation or out in the sun to protect you from the rays, we doubt they're as effective under electric light bulbs. Perhaps this guy thought he was looking fire and needed a quick selfie to commemorate his look.
He must have been impressed with the result because he used the snap as a profile picture! His selfie was fine until we spotted the man in the background. He should have thought about the guy's privacy!
There Was Enough Room for Cropping
The beautiful aspect of cropping pictures is that it leaves you with exactly what you need to keep or share with friends. It, therefore, beats us why this girl didn't do exactly that to this photo before she posted it on the internet.
While she was having fun, her friend was desperately trying to get out of her frame and go about her business in private. The photo-taker's grin while doing it suggests that she was deliberate in her actions.
Vantage From the Other Side
Some people look for quite a few things in a mate or someone to start a relationship with, including one's character. However, some men are known to value a woman's physical appearance more than her personality. This man could belong to that class.
When this creepy man appeared behind this girl, she was goofing off at the specs stall, picking out her favorites and taking selfies. Hopefully, she confronted him and asked what he was up to with this solid proof.
When Nature Calls
When going on vacation excursions with kids, some folks forget to make arrangements for their children to relieve themselves before hitting the trails or water to enjoy a boat ride. We can't, therefore, blame this boy since when nature calls, you have to answer it.
It's only unfortunate for him that the mother was trigger-happy and clicked the shot at the moment he was emptying his tank. At least they now know that there are no restrooms on small boats.
It's Freezing Out Here
Low external temperatures or freezing weather have a way of causing our bodies to restrict blood flow to our feet and hands. So, we often find ways of keeping them warm to swell up the otherwise constricted capillaries to allow blood flow.
This biker must have been going through the same experience when this oblivious couple captured him in their shot. Well, he can be forgiven, given that it was -18 degrees Fahrenheit outside, and he needed to improvise to keep his hands warm.
The Worst Possible Photobomb
Like most cats, some dogs are known to dig a hole to defecate into before burying their unwanted contents. This furry friend wasn't one to do that, and it chose to relieve itself on the grass while photobombing this woman's photo.
The picture was meant to be the last perfect shot for this woman heavy with a child before delivery was eventually spoiled, much to her chagrin. She at least has something to share with her baby when they are older.
Dad Trolling in the Background
Sometimes, when taking pictures for Instagram or other social media accounts, our siblings will occasionally photobomb the sessions, ruining them in the process. While that's a behavior common with kids, it is not so much with parents, but this father was having none of it.
He sneaked into his daughter's photo, pulling off a cool dad look with a casual bare-chested pose. At least this girl will look out for her extra-embarrassing dad the next time she is taking pictures.
Wind Served Embarrassment
When out at sea, expect a lot of wind blowing from nearly all directions, with some having the potential to cause embarrassing moments. This family's picture on a windy day was not a bad idea, but they didn't check their surroundings first.
The unfortunate woman had her skirt blown up, exposing her undergarments in public. Luckily for these folks, the wind kept their kids so focused on the shot that they did not look behind to see the unintentional mooning.
Grandma Knows Her Thing!
Some people find it difficult to resist the desire to share their progress from regular visits to the fitness center. Sometimes finding someone to take your picture may be challenging, but not when you have a supportive grandma like this guy.
While grandmothers are known to be overly supportive of their grandkids, this one doesn't mind her grandson flexing in front of her. Next time, she needs to watch out for the mirror to avoid messing up his dating profile photo.
Multi-Tasking Gone Awry
It has always been believed that women find multi-tasking easy, unlike men, who struggle with chewing gum and climbing stairs simultaneously! We've, however, come across this girl who seemingly needs to learn the best way to multitask.
This is another unfortunate case of a restroom selfie gone wrong that was not noticed before posting. Lighting is often best in the bathroom, so people need to use the sink mirror more often than the doorway one, which can be unexpectedly revealing!
Lovely Couple
Let's get things straight first: we're referring to the smiling human couple and not the amorous duo behind them. They took a nice nature picture, grinning from ear to ear, oblivious of their furry friends doing their thing at their feet.
While this appears to be a happy photo, the dogs' experiences could quickly turn unpleasant because some of them experience pain during their copulatory ties. When they're "tied," the canines can take up to one hour during mating while standing still!
Minding My Business
While some people struggle with minding their own business, others find it pretty easy to ignore something out of the ordinary happening around them. The golf cart is falling, which would ordinarily call for reaction, but not this golfer.
First, he is concentrating on his play, which does not even seem to have a ball. Where is it? Perhaps he hit the ball so hard that it tilted the cart. Secondly, why does the man in the background look unbothered?
The Odd One Out
It's always nice to rock a suit and take some pictures for remembrance before heading out for the date unless the photographer messes it up. The best-dressed family member had his father ruin the moment, thanks to the mirror.
Well, we can't blame him much since he needed to remove his pants as soon as he got home after being at the office all day. The picture is cute rather than embarrassing, with the father throwing out the need for boundaries.
One Too Many for the Cat
Several cat illnesses can cause them to vomit, but some cats remedy it by eating some grass. This feline must have been taught well that when pressed by anything, it runs to the bathroom to relieve itself when pressed by anything.
The young man seemed to have forgotten the rule of never taking pictures in the restroom, as it often serves up an embarrassing moment. This cat looks confused but has minimal damage as it went to the right place.
Out With the Thesis
Everyone has their unique way of celebrating the end of the school year, especially after working on an exhausting thesis. Advancing arguments and counterarguments for the paper can drain one so much that a party is ideal, as this person had.
Their hashtags are hilarious, and the background accompaniments were quite telling. All he seemed to need was the bubbly and some adult movies to round off his celebration. We guess whatever works for one to resuscitate their drained mind is acceptable.
Throwing Honesty to the Wind
It’s often said that honesty is the best policy, perhaps because it prevents conflicts while creating healthy relationships between people. However, it's prudent always to speak truthfully, especially if you lack the skills to hide the evidence of the lies.
We're in love with this picture since the woman who posted it is truthful in a sarcastic way for any smart potential buyer to pick up on the irony. Obviously, her claims are negated by the cigarette filler and the cat's presence.
Be Smarter Next Time
With so many people flaunting their apparent and ostensible online success, some are pushed to the brink of exclusion. This young man takes the credit for trying hard to show his cash but loses significant marks for carelessness.
First, the bills aren't the same size, and second, the ones underneath are just plain paper and not any currency. It's a nice try by him, but it only proves people right when they say one's internet persona is generally a fantasy.
A Retake Would Do
We approve of this rare cute photobomb, especially as the dog appears tired of these girls' incessant selfie shots. While it decided to take action, the girls could have simply retaken or cropped the photo before posting it.
Dogs are fun-loving animals; when kept as pets, they need all the attention and cuddles they can get. So, any minor competition for that attention will be challenged, as it was here, perhaps to divert the girls' attention away from snapping back to itself.
Reaching Out for Help
Sometimes people find themselves in difficult situations but have no idea how to get help other than through mixed and sometimes confusing messages. This may seem like a funny picture, but it has a much deeper meaning that's likely a cry for help.
The reflected message may be the intended communication and not the direct one accompanying the hot beverage. We pray that the friends took this mistake seriously and reached out for help before things got out of hand.
Deal or No Deal?
Keeping toenails short and tidy helps eliminate possible infections, not to mention being comfortable in footwear. While this weapon on sale is an enticing offer, the seller's toenails leave much to be desired.
In fact, part of the deal before buying from this person should include slipping on some sneakers before opening the door. Elderly people are known to keep long toenails owing to their inability to bend down due to frail bodies, but we doubt this person is elderly.
Take That
A family day out is often a good time, especially if furry friends are also tagged along. However, the canines can occasionally pull off embarrassing moments at the worst possible time. This dog's move makes this picture a classic one.
It looks like it was revenging for not being invited for the photo, so it took matters into its own paws. On a more serious note, dogs tend to urinate on trees and walls to mark their territories and trace their routes.
Just a Foot
We've grown so used to social conditioning and entitlement that it's rare to see men babysitting. In fact, in many cultures, women are responsible for caring for the children and the home. This man has shattered that belief, though!
While he seems to be lovingly caring for his kid, the sleeping little one's leg has slipped between his thighs, giving us this odd picture. The baby's foot looks cute, but we are also aware that some people were likely fooled by it.
Is That the Moon?
It's important always to check the background when taking a picture of such a cute little girl to avoid messing it up. She gave it her all to appear glamorous, only for her efforts to be drowned out by what lies behind her.
The photographer uploaded the photo with its flaw to make it go viral. They were most likely trying to showcase their photography skills by capturing the framed background plumber's behind. It's flawless, but it shortchanged the girl.
Inadvertently Letting the Cat Out of the Bag
Pregnancy scans help people know the status of their unborn child in terms of placement in the womb and progress of development. What many don't know is that the process relays nearly all the information about the baby for all to see.
This person thought they were clever in taunting their family with the impending kid's gender while they were, in essence, only fooling themselves. They forgot that the infant's gender was cleaerly spelled out at the top of the scan!
Odd European Delivery
This tree grew naturally at the place it was planted, but it ended up delivering a unique message for the footwear store. While the "Forget Me Not" store meant to say "European Shoes Arrived," the tree blocked the first S.
The meaning portrayed has nothing to do with footwear and totally changes what the store deals in or offers its clients. While it's fair to assume the business will not easily forget this photo angle, we relish the unfortunate tree placement.
And the Mistake Persists
It looks like some people never learn from their previous mistakes. While it's all fine to participate in a community clean-up process or any other activity with other people, dressing decently for such an occasion is paramount. This one here beats us!
Unfortunately, the internet is full of such pictures of adults dressing inappropriately for communal events that children are attending. This outfit demeans one's character and lowers others' respect for them. How many times should it be said to sink in?
Webbing the Fear
Some spiders pack deadly bites due to their potent poison. Most women have a massive phobia of this crawling, partially hairy insect. With that knowledge, it doesn't surprise us that this girl reacted in that manner when the spider made a special appearance.
Her friend's composure and concentration on the lens make us believe that it could be a prank she's too aware of. If it wasn't a stunt, her pal's calmness is worth praising, and the little arachnid had its moment.
Frontal Image Is Enough
It's prudent to fit suits before buying, like this man did, to get the right fit. While mirrors are in the store, they tend to show even the hidden parts. He looks great in the jacket but choosing to post it could have been better.
The guy needs to have some pants next time he goes to such a store to try out some outfits. Better yet, he could have moved slightly to the right or avoided posting the photo altogether.
Bunny with Sinister Motive
Bunnies are known to be cunning animals full of tricks up their sleeves, so it's not surprising to see one pull this sinister motive. From a distance, it's not easy to pick out the person in it, although the kids seem to be uneasy.
Moviemakers must be taking notes and developing ideas for their upcoming horror films. The picture looks harmless, but it turns creepy with intense staring. Well, the bunny had to breathe, but it didn't need to be frightening!
Lurking Deadly Congratulations
The "Friday the 13th" series brought us Jason Voorhees, the antagonist character that stalks and kills his unsuspecting prey. This image serves us a similar character in the background, only that we don't know who he's after: the bride or the groom.
Perhaps this was a new set of the show, but he's not known to congratulate his targets. Out with the killer, what about the man's shorts? He chose them over pants for his forest-setup marriage ceremony. Daring indeed!
Let Me Help, Please
Dogs are known to be handy in several ways for their owners. Perhaps that's what this canine was trying to achieve. Angling to hold the phone for its owner, seeing that her hands appeared to be full of other things.
It's amazing how the girl has kept her cool, given that dogs are always frantic at the door, and they'll keep scratching away at the door until it's opened. The dog stole the show in what was supposed to be a steamy selfie.
A Special Hairdresser
Women value their hair so much that they will post any minor changes to it online in order to flaunt it. While this girl intended to show off her improved strands, she forgot to check the background and didn't even bother to crop the photo.
Instead of admiring her new style, people were enjoying the show put on by her likely stylist-turned-photographer. The mirror treated us to customer service at its best as her service provider opted to go bare.
Getting Caught Out
Photoshop has always been a good tool for making memes or something funny, but not so much for hiding the truth. This woman posted this picture on the internet, oblivious to the warped door, which one of her fans rightly pointed out.
She owned up to using filters eight times, which affected the door's appearance. It was, however, surprising that she didn't realize she had let the cat out of the bag about the fake shape she was raving about.
Convenience on the Deck
Nature's call is no respecter of age or gender; neither does it alert anyone when or where it's coming, so we need to stay alert. This guy's perfect shot was ruined by his friend on the deck while they were on vacation and having their sweet moments.
Probably unwilling to take another picture, he opted to post it on the internet, having checked that nothing was exposed except his peeing escapades. At least they now know that most decks don't come with restrooms.
A Driver's Punishment
Drivers in all countries must follow the rules and regulations on the road, and failure to do so has consequences. This UK-based motorist had their driving license revoked, and it's clear to everyone why that decision had to be taken.
While reading the mail verdict in the vehicle, the picture they took shows them driving at 40 miles per hour, breaking another rule while at it. It gladdens our hearts that the driving permit was canceled to keep them and other road users safe.
Enjoying Beer and the Full Moon
It is often men spotted with lowered pants, inappropriately showing their behind when seated. While this guy may be relishing his chat with the woman, he is not aware of another guy taking this picture, grinning with a glass of beer in hand.
The rear showing usually results from putting on saggy pants, often intentionally. Even plumbers, who often sport such looks, seem to have more self-awareness than him. But why take the shot with someone's backside hanging out, anyway?
It's a Desk Chair, Take Note!
Talk about getting this office desk at the right—or perhaps the wrong—angle! If you don't take a second glance at this picture, the conclusion has to be one that everyone else would have. It's wrong thinking, but who can blame us?
Some people move around with their pleasure toys, and they can often fall out of their bags and result in such images. Thankfully, it was not the case with this harmless chair, which left an incorrect and possibly offensive impression.
Baby Launched Cannon
We've probably heard the phrase "men will always be men" more than enough times. It depicts the odd but not always welcome creativity and actions of men. Look at these two boys stuffing a kid into a cannon in the name of having a good time!
While the mother would be worried for the child's safety, this one looks calm, probably because she hadn't seen what was happening behind her. It's a big deal if the kid got stuck or contracted some illness.
Creativity With a Shadow
If you were to rank your friends, how spooky are they on a scale of one to 10? These two proved to be excellent beer-pong players, judging by their happy faces. However, they also had a hidden talent, shadow creativity.
While they struck cool looks, their friends were behind the camera, oblivious to what the shadows on the wall were showing. The image shows them having a steamy session, ruining the whole experience for everyone. We hope they're a couple.
Backward Baby Throwing
While we're aware of competitions that involve folks and their kids, we're yet to come across any baby-throwing ones. A keen look at this picture leaves a lot to be desired, as it's unclear whether the man is throwing the kid or not.
Perhaps the child slipped out of his grasp from behind, and he was attempting to grasp it in order to avoid falling head first. We only know how to catch a kid by throwing it in front of us.
Waldo in Person
Apparently, Waldo isn't just a famous fictional character in "Where's Wally?"; he seems to be alive and kicking. These gentlemen went out for dinner and decided to take a picture, not knowing that the popular cartoon was also there, in person.
It's odd, though, to find him there given that he's best known for his hiding and disappearing behavior, unless he had a business meeting he couldn't miss attending. Well, if you thought finding Waldo would be hard, think again.
Giving Away Too Much
Trust the social media police to sniff out anything and everything amiss with what people post online. This person shared how busy they were in the morning without realizing they had given out too much information. A grim reality was served by one of the followers.
It's a good idea to double-check every screenshot we take before posting it anywhere because it could contain sensitive information. On a serious note, if they had Bartholin's cyst, it called for immediate medical attention.
Where Does Grandma Stay?
Summer often has a way of serving up such scorching moments that it's common to see people walking around without clothes. In this picture, the weather looks serene, so it's hard to understand what is happening in grandma's neighborhood.
It looked like a simple picture at first glance, but the events in the right corner entirely changed the scenario, ruining the family's relaxation. Oddly enough, there are communities where people live and expose their body parts unclothed across the globe.
Too Disturbed to Notice
This woman had a genuine problem with skin rashes, that were probably making her itch a lot and resulting in these blisters. However, her predicament was the least of the netizens' concerns, as one even asked who the unclothed man beside her was.
While her condition was a serious one that should have been given more focus, it beats us how she failed to review the photo before posting. It's also sweet to see how relaxed the guy was while playing on his console.
Just a Damage-free Foot
It is always embarrassing to have torn pants that leave a man's package dangling, as this photo appears to show. Luckily, it was the opposite, with the right foot of the girl smiling behind him, depicting his manhood.
Unfortunately for him, this picture went viral on the internet, albeit for all the wrong reasons. The photo fell into the hands of dirty-minded people who hurriedly jumped to the wrong conclusions, as would be expected. We really empathize with you, man!
Nonchalant Internet Surfing
The internet is full of all kinds of information, some of which require private browsing. This girl thought she was clever, choosing to casually browse the internet with her sunglasses on in a dark room.
She perhaps needs to go back to class and learn one or two things about light and image reflection on such backgrounds and surfaces. It's unfortunate that her content, which would not be appreciated by many people, was left exposed for all to feast on once posted.
Wining After Dining
Wines help with the digestion of alcohol by using polyphenolic nutrients to reduce or eliminate possible oxidation damage to the body. This duo seems to be aware of this fact, hence the glasses of wine paraded here for the night.
While the photographer perhaps intended to capture the alcoholic drinks, they added the woman with skimpy underwear sticking out like a whale tail. Wearing the style has gone in and out of fashion over the years. It can't be comfortable!
Pervert on the Loose
Social gatherings such as this one will often attract people with questionable characters, some of whom are out to cause chaos. While these women were having fun with the camera, they probably had no idea they would capture a pervert on the loose.
The fun selfie turned out to be a piece of evidence against a social nitwit who snapped dodgy pictures of an unsuspecting woman. Apart from posting it on Facebook, we hope these women brought up the matter with the local authorities.
