Professional photographers know how to capture the perfect moment, and you get amazed by what their lenses can take and turn them into photographs. However, even if you are not a pro, you can still have amazing pictures when you can take funny, candid shots.
Sometimes, there are unexpected things that happen the second you click the camera’s shutter button. And you might just perfectly take a snap of it.
In this slideshow, we share with you 55 unique and hilarious photos of people just a second before facing a catastrophe.
The woman is smiling while posing for the camera. She’s totally unaware of what’s coming to disappoint her. Whoever is holding the cup, it was an accident.
This cat wastes his food while doing his trick. He is probably regretting it by now. He’s lucky though if his parent gives him another bowl of food with extra.
This is taken when a tidal wave damaged the barrier of a river in Zhejiang province. The people must hurry up before the wave of water gets them. We hope everyone is able to run to safety.

The dog’s being extra playful but he’s ready to take a bite. We hope he spares the privates from his playfulness. Because if he goes for his plan, the smiling guy will have an abrupt change of mood.
The owl is too excited to see this boy. I hope it won’t make the boy cry as he is having a nice day outside. Is he planning for an attack?
This is one beautiful picture that happens once in a lifetime. But, seeing the creature under that’s bigger than the boat can really make your knees weak. Probably, they are just holding their breath and hoping the creature doesn’t do anything to increase their panic.
These guys pose for a photo but one’s being naughty and throws a snowball at the other guy. He did not see it coming. Lucky for one he is safe and is able to make a good pose though.

You may be familiar with the “the floor is lava” game and this can turn into a reality for these tourists.
11. When the phone gets lost
This is the very exact moment that she lost her phone. If only a good stranger gets it and returns it to her, then she’s lucky. It’s painful to see the evidence of how she lost the phone when she could have prevented it from happening.
She’s trying to catch the hotdog with her mouth but she is probably going to miss it. We don’t know why she is eating the hotdog this way. All we can say is she has really done her best.
The pet owner takes a picture of this cute cupcake for a social media post. However, she hasn’t noticed her dog on the side who’s drooling over it. Not being able to stop himself anymore, he decides to take a bite.
The boy is not expecting to get wet from his mom’s drink. He may have been a little naughty that’s why his mom accidentally spills it over him. The mom cannot stop it anymore though, she’s also going to get wet from the spill.
They are about to enjoy their food but their table becomes a mess when the mug breaks after they cheers. They must have not done it quite gently to break a mug. If they can still stay after the beer-bath, they can enjoy another round of beer, and no clinking glasses this time.

This biker is trying to pull off a show. Unluckily, the front wheel detaches itself from the motorbike. If he has encountered this before, then he can probably avoid the harsh landing.
The tiger is chasing the chicken who’s trying to escape danger and death. We can only hope it survives the tiger’s claws. Good luck poor chicken!

This dog is having frisbee training. He’s been so focused and motivated that he didn’t see the huge tree that he’s going to bump into. You can do better next time doggie.

All she wants is to surprise her co-worker for her birthday. But, her hair catches fire from the candles. Who can stay calm in this situation? We can tell what happens next. She drops the cake to put the fire out.
47. Unidentified flying sandal
This flying sandal is headed straight to the man’s face. If he has the ability of Neo in Matrix, then he can surely dodge it. The people around him are already laughing at what is about to unfold.
This kid has a bright future in boxing. He is not thinking twice about aiming for the man’s nose though. The adult is probably regretting it to play with the child who’s up for serious training.
