15 Social Media Stories Of Things Gone Horribly Wrong

We can all screw up, it's perfectly normal to do so. But what's worse is when your screw-ups are displayed publically online for all to see, that's when embarrassment starts to kick in. We should all be held accountable for our actions, especially when we mess something up that is of utmost importance, which we see very often with many people in high positions of power lately. That being said, being exposed online is usually one of the few ways that the people who mess up get their dues, and being mocked on the internet is a fate worse than death.

Reddit's /r/therewasanattempt highlights various examples of people messing things up disastrously but in the public's eyes. Whether it's a news article that shows a horrible accident or just someone failing miserably at doing one job, each is an example of incompetence at its finest. Prepare to laugh and sometimes sigh at how dumb people can be in this collection that showcases the world's most idiotic people.
