We all have bad ideas from time to time, and thatโs normal. Sometimes, we miscalculate our ideas, we donโt understand the dangers of the situation, and sometimes, these crazy ideas seem to work in our mind but turns out to be disastrous when executed.
Though, itโs a fact that men mostly have the best moments when it comes to bad decisions. From risky window cleaning to trying a very dangerous stunt โ these men should be in the hall of fame for bad decisions!
We have collected 75 of these hilarious yet dangerously scary photos and situations of men who thought that their ideas would actually work.
Youโd sure to laugh, gasp in disbelief, and even have many face palm moments but itโll be all worth it!


1) A very dangerous cleaning strategy
Doing your job well is commendable but putting your own personal safety isnโt. Just like this one here.
Itโs already dangerous to climb up that very thin ledge but this guy managed to mop it as well. Just looking how far he needs to go would make anyone dizzy!


2) The upside down ladder
Weโre not sure whatโs going on here, maybe he was thinking that since the feet of the ladder is wide, he wonโt be able to balance it.
Thatโs the reason why he did this one, but weโre pretty sure itโs not at all safe. Definitely one bad decision!


3) The daredevil
Looks like this is something to impress the ladies, donโt you think?
While there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to be โcoolโ sometimes, you might get in trouble along the way.
We must say, heโs very lit! We just hope it wonโt be too explosive!


4) A trusting friend
When you need to get the job done and you need a helping hand, why not ask a friend?
This case is special though, it shows trust โ a lot of it!
We just hope that heโs friend whoโs holding the ladder wonโt feel tired easily.


5) Heโs definitely asking for it
There is so much going on in this photo! Sadly, everything here is definitley wrong.
Weโre pretty sure this guy wanted to be inventive and clever and yeah, he was able to get up but for how long?


6) A guy who knows his lines
Hereโs a guy who definitely knows his lines. Maybe a little too much.
What a clever way to prevent yourself from falling! Those line should be put to good use, right?


7) Sturdy ladder extension
When there is just a small portion to finish, you just want to get the job done โ even if it means getting yourself in a very dangerous situation.
A little miscalculation, a little wiggle or a wobble might cause this guy a nasty injury.


8) Together, weโre stronger
When you need to get something done, you donโt need to call in the professionals!
Just do what these guys are doing, surely youโll see how helping each can get the work done. Look at how clever they all are. No need to worry about safety, right?
After all, itโs just a light bulb โ no biggie.


9) I got you, buddy!
When you just need to tighten some loose screws, why get all the trouble to get a ladder?
Just ask a your trusted friend to hold your feet like this one and youโll finish the work in a jiffy.


10) The fastest Internet
This Internet provider tech may want to compete for the best employee of the year.
In order to fix the Internet connection, heโll set aside his own safety and just cross the fingers that his idea would work.


11) No ladder? Improvise
As they say, sometimes you have to use whatโs available.
This is the reason why this guy chose to build his own jenga oh, we mean a very creative way to reach what heโs repairing.
Weโre hoping the best for you buddy!


12) Seen this in the movies


13) The many uses of a bucket
This bucket has many uses. As you can see, it can also be used as a stool but instead of putting it upside down, he chose to balance and to stay still while working.
Maybe he likes challenges?


14) Whatโs going on here?
Are they trying to break a record here? Is this a dare? An experiment?
We just hope no one gets burned or hit hard by a bicycle.


15) Light as a feather
This man is really stubborn. We understand that he wants to get the farthest bottle available but he could have just ask for help, right?
Instead, he relied on his decision making and decided to step on those poor bottles of wine. Lucky for him they didnโt break!


16) What is that around his neck?
Weโre bothered by that guy whoโs just sitting there doing nothing but weโre more concerned about the guy in the ladder.
Aside from all the safety hazard of this situation, we want to know whatโs that around his neck!


17) No ladder? No biggie!
Itโs funny how this guy chose this to be his improvised ladder.
As it says, โthink safety, work safelyโ. Weโre guessing he didnโt have time to โthinkโ about it. Oh, and that drill makes us worried too.


18) Nope. Just nope!
A big slab of concrete only being held by a machine with no one inside it.
Does he have some kind of a death wish? Because it certainly looks like it.


19) Sparkly eyes
Do you see the sparkle in his eyes? Of course we do!
Weโre not sure why he didnโt realize that he is in a very dangerous situation.
Maybe he thinks itโll add a spark to his personality?


20) Forklift lifting a forklift
Sometimes, ideas tend to be a little crazy and might just work but not all.
Thatโs why you need to ask someone about it. This men surely made a bad decision here. Though, they look convinced that itโs a great idea.


21) Define safety


22) The strength of a zip tie


23) An example of something you shouldnโt do


24) Show off!
Sure, itโs nice to have fun and even dare each other to see whoโs the toughest but this one?
Well, itโs more than just a silly game, itโs a very dangerous one too. Heโs risking so much in this position.


25) A skill to learn
This is actually very common to people in this type of work. Believe it or not, they get so used to this that itโs a skill for them.
Though, if youโre not a pro, then thatโs a very bad decision to try and do it.


26) The yoga master
Kudos to this guy who seem to know how to put his yoga practice into work.
Just standing in that ladder and holding the weight of a full grown man?
Wow! We just hope he can maintain that posture.


27) Hang on tight!


28) The ladder solution
Whatโs up with men and ladders? This guy seem to need an extension to his ladder.
His solution?
Add his tool box and balance his way into finishing his work. Weโre not sure if weโre proud or scared or both!


29) I donโt need a ladder


30) Not only in the movies


31) Youโre doing it all wrong


32) Please see warning sign
Clearly, the warning sign says no eating or drinking because thereโs poison there.
Weโre not sure why they donโt seem to care at all?
It even looks like there is a party going on here. Eat well guys!


33) Just hang in there


34) The confident employee
Even though you are, itโs still not right to do dangerous jobs without protection. This guy calmly cleans the windows without any harness or protection on.


35) Scary scaffolding


36) Not safe but cool
Sometimes, you have to choose. To maintain proper safety or to stay cool.
This guy choose the latter. A definitely bad decision but hey, at least his hair is still cool, huh?


37) Is it a clever idea?
When you donโt have the proper equipment to finish the job but youโre really dedicated โ then what?
Well, this guy decided that maybe putting 2 ladders together would work. Maybe it would, maybe it wonโt. Would you even risk it?


38) Not the smartest guy
We all make bad decisions, but doing more than 3 at the same time?
Thatโs world record.
From thinking that his idea will work to those sandals and that inside out shorts, this guy is asking for it!


39) Fingers crossed
So many questions! Why are they doing this? Look at their reactions, especially the one in the middle.
They look like they know what might happen and yet theyโre messing with this dangerous warhead!
What do you think happened here?


40) The sturdy shopping cart
Based on his uniform, this guy looks like heโs a professional. So, weโre wondering why he didnโt have the right tools with him and why of all the things he could use, would he use a shopping cart?
Looks like it didnโt even have stoppers on the wheels as well. We can clearly imagine him getting in an unfortunate situation here.


41) The only reasonable explanation


42) I can fly!
Sometimes, ideas are supposed to stay as ideas. Just like this manโs decision to try a very dangerous and silly trick.
He has quite a lot of time to think about this, just look at the preparation he did. Weโre guessing it didnโt end well.


43) I got your bum, man!
A twist to the old saying that โI got your back.โ These guy is seen supporting his friend from his bum.
Sure, with that amount of work, the rusty ladder, and that thin piece of wood, and the bum support will prevent him from falling down.


44) Seems sturdy enough


45) Falling many ways
Can you climb this? Weโd be a little nervous doing so, imagine falling sideways or backwards.
Weโre hoping that everything is well-tied up and heโd be safe here.


46) Not a ladder job
Good thing weโre not seeing ladders here! Though, we donโt know if thatโs a good thing or a bad thing since these guys chose to use a truck to do the job.
Weโre pretty sure that this isnโt a job for a truck.


47) Care to try?
These two friends were brave enough to go cycling on the Cliffs of Moher. They seem so confident but weโre not!
Even looking at this photo is already making us sweat in fear!


48) The human ladder
Out of budget? A challenge at work? Weโre not sure but creating a human ladder isnโt something that youโd see every day.
They look so nervous with their own stunt but weโre wondering how they were able to pull this off?


49) Donโt worry, we got you! Pinky promise!
Weโre not sure how these guys were able to convince their co-worker to do this.
Maybe they did a โpinky promiseโ that they got him and will not let go?


50) Oh, boys!
When you have boys then you know how they like to do silly things sometimes. Take this photo as a very good example.
That ramp is clearly not enough and that poor boy must have cried a lot after this shot. You know why.


51) Just one wrong move
Taking time to study this photo makes us more nervous.
From the pile up that only has less than an inch allowance to the thin piece of wood where heโs climbing.
Clearly one bad decision!


52) Think outside the box
No protective gear? No problem!
This guy is clearly thinking outside the box by using a box to protect him. Now, heโs surely protected!
How clever is that?


53) The power of the caution tape
When you see a croc who broke out the enclosure, what else can you do?
Put a caution tape, of course!
That will surely save everyone from the possible danger!


54) Improvised scaffold holder
This is clearly our top favorite now! Scaffoldings are meant to be supported by a โproperโ machine and not some improvised โhope it worksโ invention like this one.
Theyโre clearly asking for it!


55) A good protection
Is he kidding? Propably not. Of all the materials, why would he choose to use plastic?
Itโs putting him in more danger than safety.


56) He prefers the bucket
This guy prefers to wear a bucket over his head instead of his helmet. See, thereโs his helmet in his handle bars.
Whatโs up with that?


57) Horsey Horsey
What better way to prepare for a fall in the pool than to wear your boxers?
He knows what will and can happen, right? Look at that horsey toy there. Unless he wants to have a thrill while working, then itโs the right decision.


58) I donโt need shipping
Who needs shipping when you can bring home your own TV?
Just a couple of patience, a good grip, and a clearly bad decision. Just a few minutes and youโre home!


59) A little bit more and weโre done
Look at this manโs bad decision and strong faith to this door. Weโre hoping he can reach that small piece left to paint.


60) Spiderman
Safety gear? Harness? Nah, we just need this spiderman guy and the job gets done quickly.
He doesnโt even looked bothered by the height!


61) At least he has the safety rope
This guy has his safety rope and gear and thatโs a good thing, right?
Though weโre not sure why itโs not connected to anything. Can we still call it a safety rope in this case?


62) Those rubber boots
Water + electrical wires?
Shocking isnโt?
Maybe this guy doesnโt know that? Or he just likes making bad decisions?
Weโre hoping those rubber boots can save him.


63) How to transport a ladder


64) The icicle game
Looks like this guy is playing chances with his own icicle game.
The chances of losing here is greater and that makes it more exciting, right?


65) All for one, one for all
These guys are so dedicated with their work that theyโre holding on to this dear ladder to help their friend.
Weโre hoping their arms wonโt get tired.


66) Weeeeee


67) Heights donโt bother me
This guy loves to have clean windows. Who wouldnโt? Heโs also very hands on when it comes to cleaning his home.
Heights? Nah, not a thing for him. He loves doing this and thinks itโs a stress reliever.


68) He doesnโt have shaky legs
Great house design but changing the light bulbs can be quite life threatening.
We understand he used a ladder to get there but how in the world would he get down?


69) What was he thinking?
Sure, this guy just made a bad decision โ twice.
To choose to stand on the gas tank while he is using his saw as a screwdriver โ dangerously clever!


70) You fall, I fall
Cutting a tree, weโve seen that before but cutting the tree that supports your ladder?
One of a kind!


71) Precious hair
Looks like it took him years to care for such beautiful hair thatโs why he would rather protect it than his head.
We hope he made the right decision though.


72) Definitely, not the smartest


73) Jump to your death
Looking for a game that has excitement? Well, try this one!
You can jump and jump and who knowโs, that jump might just be your last.


74) Think safety first
We love this poster! Though, this guy who decided to take a very risky way of putting the poster sure didnโt read it first.
Look at how he was doing it! Maybe he canโt wait for the ladder or just likes to break the rules.


75) Target practice
This boy sure loves his bow and arrow. Looks like dad gave it to him too.
He could have gotten him a target board as well. At least he wonโt be one of them! Ouch!
