Photos Where Overconfidence Was Someone's Downfall
You can study a lot of things, be an expert in lots of others, and admit you don't know the first thing about a lot of subjects, but there's nothing worse than thinking you know about something. That false confidence supported by delusions can take you through treacherous paths that can only end in a lot of regret.
You might be trying to impress a girl you just met, or trying to look cool in front of your co-workers, and feel like you know it all. That feeling is great, we're not gonna lie, but it's also extremely dangerous, and you should be careful. It's easy to get addicted to that feeling of not knowing but thinking you know a lot, and when you need to actually show off in front of others with cameras, you might be documenting your very own doom.
So, here are some photos where overconfidence was someone's downfall in the most hilarious ways.
