Accidents happen more often than you might think, yet itโs not often that we capture them on camera. However, these photographers snapped their shots at the exact right moment. The hilarious photos show 55 individuals who are completely unaware of the unfortunate things that are about to happen to them.
From drink spills in slow motion to birds stealing the hats right off of peopleโs heads, this list includes some of the craziest situations we could find. Although, if the images were taken just seconds prior, everything would have looked completely normal.

2. Flipped Motorcycle
Seconds from now, this guy is going to be in for a world of hurt. He realizes what is happening, but the whole weight of the situation has sunk in yet, literally, and figuratively speaking. Hopefully, his thick jeans help to protect him somewhat.

3. Aspiring Actor
The dog had no idea what was taking place on the television behind her. Nevertheless, she managed to make the exact same expression as the actor in the series at the exact same time. What do you think, was it a coincidence?

5. Safety Violation
You can probably run this situation over and over again dozens of times and nothing will happen. All it takes is one spark hitting the wrong part of the tanks though and the whole place goes up in flames. It makes us cringe just looking at it.

6. Exquisite Cheese
It turns out, some birds enjoy cheese just as much as humans do. The bird can be seen gazing at the cheese longingly. It is going to be so delicious when it finally takes a bite.

7. Surprise Pup
There is nothing quite like getting photobombed by a swimming dog. Itโs the last thing that you would expect to come paddling by while you are in a swimming pool. Vacations can be quite surprising like that.

8. Flying Cake
This dessert sure looks tasty. Itโs such a shame that she wonโt actually get to eat it. The restaurant might as well say goodbye to that nice white tablecloth too.

9. Catching A Plane
Some statues are simply larger than life. Although, itโs all a matter of perspective. From certain angles, planes can be plucked right out of the sky.

10. Dolphin Jump
This dolphin took a giant leap out of the pool of water. It was aiming for the second pool on the other side. Sadly though, it got stopped in midair by its talented Navy dolphin trainer. The man has incredible timing.

Back in the โ70s, this man took his uncleโs motorcycle out for a spin without asking. This was the photo that he captured of the ride, seconds before crashing and breaking his collarbone. As you can probably surmise from the angle of the jump, it wasnโt a very smooth landing for him.

The person driving the Porsche thought that they were pretty cool cruising around the streets like a maniac. However, the two trucks in front of them got the final word in the matter. They hit the driver with a giant plume of black exhaust as they pulled away.

26. Fall In Progress
You have to be really careful while walking around the city in the winter. Sidewalks can get really icy. We recommend wearing boots, and if you are really accident prone, maybe even a helmet.

27. Bird Sighting
Some animals like being photographed and some donโt. This bird belongs to the group that doesnโt like being caught on camera. The bird looks almost offended by the fact that someone would accidentally take a picture of him.

30. Dog Illusion
This is exactly how the old-school video games used to work. However, this is the real-life version using dogs. The character disappears off one end of the screen and suddenly emerges on the other.

33. Rollercoaster Takeoff
Rollercoasters are already scary enough. Looking at this photo though, you would think that it accidentally launched into space. Luckily, itโs just an illusion due to a perfectly placed contrail off on the distance.

34. Turkey Thief
If you have a dog in the family, you have to be very careful when preparing fancy feasts. Dogs get hungry too, just like people. If you turn your back for a second, they can totally ruin the holidays.

A dream of many baseball fans is to catch a baseball at a game. A bat, on the other hand, is not something that you want to come flying at you. There is no glove big enough to catch a flying bat.

50. Crazy Landing
This bird was coming in hot, so hot in fact, that it interfered with its ability to land. In the photo, it is seconds away from slipping on the birdseed and tumbling off the ledge. Luckily, though, all it has to do is flap its wings again and loop around for a second attempt.
