When taking photos, the foreground isn’t always the most important part. You also have to pay attention to what’s happening in the background to make sure that there’s nothing amiss.
However, for some reasons, there are still people who don’t realize the importance of clearing the background when taking pictures. As a result, they end up with embarrassing and funny photos.
To prove the point, here are 57 photos where the background is funnier than the main action.
1. A drinking problem
At first glance, you’d think that this is just an ordinary photo of people having fun at a party. However, if you take a closer look, you’ll see that not everyone is having a great time. Someone was clearly struggling with his glass of beer.
2. Showing off
This kid was just trying to show how cool the man is. However, for some reason, he slipped and fell into the water as this picture was taken. I guess he’s not that cool after all.
3. Lucky
This guy was at the right place at the right time. He was able to witness an important take-off and landing while enjoying the beach. He’s one lucky guy, that’s for sure.
4. Memorable wedding
This woman won’t be forgetting her wedding anytime soon. Each time she sees her wedding dress, she’ll remember the night the waiter spilled all the drinks on her.
5. Oops!
Everything was going well until they reached the dangerous bend. The pig was running so fast that he wasn’t able to control himself. The good news is that no pigs were harmed during the incident.
6. The flying sandal
That woman looked so happy. I wonder if it’s because she was having so much fun with the game or she’s witnessed the flying sandal hit the poor man.
7. The hoodie
It was probably attracted to the kid’s hoodie. After all, it doesn’t see a lot of pinks inside its enclosure.
8. Surprised
This photo isn’t telling the whole story. There must be a reason why the squirrel looked so shocked.
9. Ouch!
High fives are supposed to be fun since they’re a gesture of congratulations and greetings. They aren’t supposed to be…painful.
10. This kid
The most unsettling part here isn’t the knife the kid was holding. It’s the fact that these guys didn’t know the kid was there. They only noticed him after the photo was taken.
11. A flying car
Did the car hit the man? Was he able to run away in time? This photo is like a scene from an action movie.
12. A surprising element
It’s hard to believe that this picture passed as an engagement photo. There are so many awkward things here. The one in front is the most noticeable of all.
13. The look of pain
At first look, you might think that these two were having an awesome time playing. In reality, the man was actually in pain here. His dog accidentally kicked him in the balls. The pooch looked quite happy at what he did.
14. Evil duck
This duck looks like it’s planning something evil. Its human should give him food before it starts burning the house down.
15. Evil Mickey
This photo reveals Mickey’s dark past. Turns out he used to eat kids’ heads before.
16. That look
While the man looked impressed, the woman seemed shocked. This photo suggests that men and women truly look at things differently.
17. Pancakes
The cat was arguing with his human about the pancakes. His human was insisting that they’re not for cats. He strongly disagreed.
18. Fortunate
Thankfully, the kitten’s paws were small and soft. Otherwise, it could have been the end for this guy.
19. Failed
If this guy was trying to impress others, he failed miserably. And thanks for whoever took this picture, he won’t be able to forget about it easily.
20. Butterfly
The woman at the back looked like she picked the wrong butterfly to mess with. It probably had a rough day and didn’t want to pose for any photo. Poor woman!
21. Cool grandpa
Grandpa was feeling too cool at the park. His grandson couldn’t handle it- literally.

People react differently when they’re hungry. Some get mad while others feel weak. There are also people who do crazy things when they’re starving, just like this kid.
23. Nope.
This lady thought she looked great so she took a selfie in front of Cinderella’s castle. However, the girl behind her thought otherwise.
24. Third-wheel
This is why you shouldn’t always tag along when you’re friends are out on a date. You’ll just end up feeling awkward.

30. Behind the stand
It looks like a crime was being committed behind the stand. That woman seemed like she was screaming for help.

We all have that one friend who’ll never leave our side. They’ll make sure they’re with us in every important milestone, just like this guy. He made sure he was “visible” during his friend’s proposal.

There’s no need to explain what’s happening back there. There’s no need to point them out either. The photobombers aren’t that hard to miss.
36. Couldn’t keep it
No one in the family will be able to forget this Christmas photo. It’s all thanks to the dog pooping in the background. He wasn’t able to wait until after the photo.

38. Looking up
Don’t blame the boy. Kids his age are naturally curious. He just wanted to see what’s up there.

This is a bit crazy. Wherever the clown was going, I hope there are no kids there. They’ll surely find him scary.

The baby looked super cute. Even the cat couldn’t hide his amusement. He’s clearly head over heels about the kid.
41. Little driver
Kids do grow up so fast these days. Some of them can drive trucks already.

Some kids will do anything to get people’s attention. This photobomber is a clear example. He wanted to get a share of the spotlight so he hilariously posed like this.
43. Friends
Being friends mean sticking with each other through ups and downs. It also means taking photos of your friends when they’re failing miserably with their stunts.

53. Fake
This woman posted this photo saying her boyfriend was trying to take a picture of her. Well, mirrors don’t lie.
