The world is filled with accident prone people. Luckily, this provides us with a constant stream of unintentional cringe-worthy entertainment!
We all secretly love watching our fellow humans get knocked down a peg. We all get a little joy from watching unsuspecting pedestrians slipping on an invisible patch of ice. But, have you ever seen someone fall into a mall fountain while texting? How about flipping a car while pulling into a driveway?
Since this is the 21st century, security cameras are literally everywhere. And with every angle of our public lives being recorded and stored, we can thank Big Brother for capturing these moments. If you want to record the next viral sensation, it may just take a nice home security system and a little patience.
Take a look at these 7 security camera fails that will have you questioning people’s basic ability to function.
1. Bad Driver Flips Car
We’ve all hit a curb or love-tapped another bumper, but have you ever flipped your car on a wide open gate?
This lady probably had the worst day ever when her entire world turned upside down. And no, her car didn’t flip in that cool Tom Cruise “Top Gun” kind of way.
2. Robber vs. Door
I don’t condone stealing, but if you’re going to do it, maybe have an exit strategy. This robber was stopped in his tracks by the swift justice of steel locks.
The best part of this video is his face of disappointment when he realized he was caught and looked stupid doing it. At least we know he won’t escape his jail cell!
3. Fountain Texter
You see people every day walking like zombies, with their heads buried in their phones. The digital world doesn’t care if you’re crossing the street or waiting for the bus. But I would hope most of us are still somewhat aware of our surroundings. This girl was unfortunately in a little too deep. (no pun intended)
4. Elevator Ninja
Kids climb on everything. Why can’t adults?
This guy was having a little too much fun pretending to be Spider-Man when he accidentally jammed the elevator door from opening. What started as some harmless wall-walking fun quickly turned into a terrible nightmare.
5. Target Worker Breaks Sprinkler
The poor kid was just trying to do his job when he accidentally hit a sprinkler head, inadvertently creating a water park in the back warehouse.
Next time you have a bad day, ask yourself “Was it water-sprinkler bad?”
6. Watch Your Step
When you’re walking through a store, you don’t expect to find many human-sized holes in the floor.
What makes this even worse is the poor guy wasn’t even distracted by his phone or anything. He was just walking like we all would. The store should have probably put some blockades around it. Nonetheless, his embarrassment is our entertainment!
7. More Beer Please
We’ve all been in that situation where you’re partying with your friends, you run out of beer and then you have to pick who’s has to venture out to get more.
This guy got the short straw and what follows is truly a thing of beauty. Balance was not his friend that night. And if you’re not keen on watching all 10 minutes of this binge-drinkers ballet, skip forward a few times and marvel as he contorts his beer-soaked body.
Remember, next time you stumble into a hole or faceplant into a pool, it probably got recorded and you’ll likely end up on the internet. At least we know Big Brother has a sense of humor. Comforting, right?
