10 Cringeworthy selfie fails

There are a few things you should keep in mind as you move about in the world. Pay attention to your surroundings, keep alert of animals around you, watch where you’re walking and don’t look at your phone while you drive. These people don’t seem to have gotten the memo, as their impressive selfie fails can attest to this.

Turns out that selfies can be more deadly than shark attacks, which is an incredibly grim statistic. Fortunately, most selfie fails don’t result in serious injury or death, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t inopportune circumstances that just happen to be captured during the perfect selfie attempt.

A sideline reporter was taking in batting practice at Fenway Park when she decided to take a selfie. Amazingly, this ball completely missed her head, but she got an incredible shot out of it. And on that note, you should probably avoid turning your back towards the playing field during batting practice, and definitely while a game is going on.

Don’t selfie stick and drive


Cool idea bro, but the first rule of driving should probably be to look at the road.


No harm came to this driver who is also stupidly looking at his selfie stick as he goes down the road — and incredibly, his phone seems to have also escaped unscathed.
