Photos Where Nothing Good Can Happen Next

Accidents can be prevented, but sometimes it's just better to fall and make everyone laugh out loud. We know this, so we're constantly trying to get the perfect balance between silliness and safety. Or at least that's what we'd like to think. In reality, not all of us have the same compass for these things, so a lot of our efforts tend to go wrong in very predictable ways.

Weird contrivances we come up with not to buy a new appliance, stacking things on top of each other because our only ladder isn't available, playing Tetris with our car's trunk to save us the effort of making and additional trip, and so many other situations where all we needed was someone to just say stop. Those situations can be unsafe or even life-threatening, but they can also be so much fun.

So, here are some photos where nothing good can happen next, and everyone involved knows it all too well.
