We take pictures because we want to capture moments so we can keep them as memories. Whether it is happy or sad moments, pictures help us to capture them and having the internet means that these memories are always just a few clicks away. Taking pictures has been made easy with cameras being available to everyone around the world in the form of smartphones. Now, it is hard to let a moment pass by without taking a picture of it.
Digital photography has allowed many people to develop successful careers and they have captured some amazing pictures that were taken seconds before a disaster struck. These pictures make you think about how significant each moment is and how life can just pass by within a matter of seconds.
Eating Cake
We all know that dogs should not be allowed to eat sweet things. However, this canine was over enthusiastic about eating cake and he did not care, even when his owners tried to stop him.
Striking Wave
This girl is not doing yoga underwater. While it may look like that, the truth is that the picture was taken right before the wave struck the mound of sand that she had built behind her. The result was quite a beautiful picture.
That Is Not A Plane
When you engage in adventure sports, make sure that you have enough practice or have an experienced instructor along with you. This man was scaling the sides of the mountain with a friend who took the picture. You can see the glasses of the man that fell off his nose.
Spilt Wine
We are sure that the woman would have had a shouting match with her dancing partner after this picture was taken. The reason is quite simple. While they were dancing, the guy spilled wine all over and you can see it in the picture.
Jesus 2.0
It seems like Jesus has returned to Earth and this time, he is not just walking on water but is breakdancing on the surface of the water for his friends.
That Lucky Clover Leaf
This guy must have gotten very happy upon finding the four-leaved clover, thinking that his luck was about to change for the better. However, while he was taking the picture of the leaf, he had no idea that a frisbee was heading straight for his face.
Caught In The Grate
While it may be quite amusing to some, we are sure that the fall was quite painful for the woman in the picture. This cannot be staged and you just have to be quick with your fingers when you click the camera button.
Marking Boundaries
This dog did not like the fact that the woman was just resting in his territory. So, he decided to send a message to remind her that this was his space.
Living On The Edge
While this man was getting his picture taken, he had no idea that he was in the splash zone. The heavy set woman in the background was on the edge of the pool and we are sure that moments later, she would have fallen in.
Popping A Wheelie
This kid must have been trying to pop a wheelie on his BMX when he realized that he was in quite a bit of trouble. The wheel just came off and we are sure that he must have had a pretty bad fall soon after.
Selfie Fail
This woman just wanted to take a cute picture with her dog. However, her pet had other ideas. Instead of making a cute face, he just vomited all over her.
There Goes The Baby
This couple just wanted a nice family picture on the beach. They decided to swing the babies between them. However, the mother lost control of the other baby that she was holding and you can see how he just flew in the air.
Fat Kitty
When you have a cat, you have to take additional care around your house because cats have a tendency to break things. When this fat cat climbed up onto the shelf, we are sure that she would not have gotten down without breaking a few things.
The Calm Before The Storm
We are not sure how this woman is staying so calm with the huge wave that is rushing towards her. Perhaps, she has had just enough of life and decided that this would be an easier way to go.
Pranks Around The House
While we are sure that this was meant to be just a harmless prank, a fight would have ensued right after this picture was taken. The woman must have been looking up to see what the deal was with taking the picture.
At The Zoo
When you are at the zoo, you have to take extra precautions as to what is going on around you. Or else, you will also join the list of the people who got their fingers nibbled at by the ducks like this woman.
Almost Perfect Picture
At first, you may not notice what is going on in this picture. It may look like a perfect picture but if you look closely, the guy in the back row is puking all over himself and the head of the person in front of him.
Grandma’s Supervision
Many parents leave their kids with their grandparents because they are confident that they can look after them for a short while. However, this grandma is going to be in a lot of trouble since she let the kids ride the quad bike that they are about to fall off of.
Good Shot
When you are playing ball with your little son, you always want to capture the precious moments. However, what do you do if your kid decides to hit the ball towards your face?
Slippery Slope
This kid left the house all dressed up and he wore the wrong shoes which led him to slip and fall.
End Of High School
When High School ends, the students tend to resort to pranks in order to celebrate the end of their school. However, it is not fair to dress up for the class picture and then have buckets of water thrown on your head.
The Ball Of Water
We are pretty sure that this woman would have gotten quite angry with the bursting balloon on her back. She would have suspected something was off when her partner decided to get a water hose and a balloon when she was resting.
Going Swimming
These girls were ready to go to the beach and get all wet. However, their dreams of getting wet were fulfilled before they even reached the beach when the truck went past them driving over a giant muddy puddle.
Save Room For Dessert
This woman paused while eating her dessert so that she could get a good picture taken. She raised her plate for the picture but the dessert ended up falling and it was just hilarious.
Sniffing Dog
This dog was sniffing in the wrong place and if he found something that was taste-worthy, he would have taken a bite. It must have been quite painful for the guy.
A Friend Of The Ocean
Many people like to take support of the railings when they are getting their pictures taken. However, this guy leaned a bit too far and the result was hilarious, to say the least.
Heartless Gravity
For all the people out there who deny the existence of science, this picture is proof that gravity is real. While the fall may have been painful for the girl in the picture, the rise into the air must have been quite exhilarating.
Birthday Cake
These parents have a 16-year old child who has their birthday today. However, the dad decided to give the mother a little shove and the cake just fell out of her hands. It must have been quite awkward for the parents to explain what happened to the cake.
Attack Of The Goat
This picture has been timed perfectly. The cameraman decided to take the picture at the exact moment when the goat decided to attack the woman. Perhaps the woman was trying to pet the goat and get the picture taken.
Enjoying The Concert
This girl is enjoying the concert like everyone else but the others around her did not enjoy the concert after this picture was taken. The reason behind this is simple. She spilled her drink all over everyone’s heads.
Air Force Has Its Moment
Every organization has its hazing ritual where everyone picks on the new guy. The same goes for the Air Force where this squad decided to pour a bucket of water on the new guy.
Welcoming The New Couple
The guests at this wedding are quite peculiar. While everyone is celebrating the happy couple, one guy decided that it was time to throw something at the couple. While others may have gone with flower petals, he chose to go with beer.
Nightmare Come True
This is everyone’s nightmare come true. Every time that you go swimming in the sea or the ocean, you have the fear of getting bitten by the sea creatures. This duck was not at all ready to become the prey that day.
Science Experiment
Science is always fun and it gets even more fun when you perform cool experiments at home. These kids were trying to see what happens when you mix cola and mentos and we are sure that they found out exactly what happens.
A Typical Russian Day
We are well-aware of the fact that the Russians are built to resist everything. However, we would not go as far as to say that the Russian in the picture would have survived the throwing of the hammer at his face.
Lack Of Common Sense
We are inclined to believe that the man is quite experienced. However, he is lacking a bit of common sense because he is cutting the trunk of a tree on which he is resting his ladder.
Swing Time
These girls wanted to have a wonderful time but one of the swings decided that the weight was too much and the chain broke. Needless to say, the picture was timed perfectly.
Jaguar Attack
When you are in a forest area, you should really try and be aware of your surroundings. Or else, you might find yourself being the dinner of the jaguar.
Right For The Face
When you are playing sports, there are going to be many accidents. It is the job of the cameramen all around to take pictures and videos of the event. This picture was perfect because it was taken right before the ball hit her face.
Rolling Over
If you are inexperienced, you should never wear roller skates on a wooden floor. Or else, you would be in for a painful fall like the girl in the picture.
Flying Cake
When everyone was enjoying the party, they would not have expected to have a cake come flying in their direction. The girl with her eyes closed must have felt the full force of the cake on her face.
Wedding Picture
This couple would have quite a memorable wedding. Not because the ceremony was beautiful but because there was a man who was jumping into the ocean in the background.
Catching The Ball
When you are at a baseball game, you always want to be the one who catches the ball. However, this also means that you run the risk of missing the catch.
Facing The Wave
While everyone else was running for their lives, this guy just stood there because he knew that he would not be able to go far enough to avoid the water that was going to hit the shore.
Sliding On The Surface
And here we have another person who is displaying her skills of walking over water. We are not sure how people are getting these superpowers and why they are not available to all of us.
Believing You Can Fly
When you want to achieve something phenomenal, you have to first believe that you can do it. However, you do not want to do something stupid like jumping into the pool from a distance that is too far away.
Busy On The Phone
While this guy was on the phone, the front wheel of his bike popped off and we are sure that he would have panicked and fallen off the bike moments later.
Crying Over Spilled Beer
After this picture was taken, this man must have cried over the spillage of the beer in his hand. However, he would always have this picture to remember the moment.
Safety First
This guy was playing around with his bike trying to impress his friends. However, he failed miserably and we are just happy that he was taking safety seriously and was wearing a helmet.
Baby In A Haystack
We all have had that moment where we stepped on a stair that was not there and felt that small panic attack. This kid must have felt something much more when he stepped off the haystacks.
