Thanks to modern cameras and smartphones, capturing happy moments can now be done quickly and easily. Throw in the convenience of social media in the mix and you’ve got immediate audience right at your fingertips. In mere seconds, friends and family members both near and far can see and react to your pictures.

The obvious downside of technology in this aspect, of course, is that aside from happy memories, even the most embarrassing ones are often caught on camera and broadcasted on the internet.

Case in point, this compilation of photos below show us some pretty memorable moments taken just a few seconds before tragedies happened. They’re downright hilarious, to say the least, and, yes, very embarrassing for the people involved!
