So this is kind of sad. Some people released a large set of balloons in honor of orphaned children at a fundraising event and... it did not go well.

Whitney Jefferson · 01/01/10 01:30PM

These are the kinds of stories that we can't help but think of when we're about to pop open a bottle of bubly. Watch this macho dude try to hold back the tears as a cork is shot unexpectedly at his face.

Girl Backflips Into Table

Sergio Hernandez · 12/31/09 02:30PM

Nothing ruins an excellently executed feat of acrobatics like a poorly placed piece of furniture. Gymnasts: beware of the sinister sidetables!

Sergio Hernandez · 12/30/09 02:30PM

Who knew there were so many humiliating accidents to be had in the gym? Today, yet another great weighlifting fail. Now with squats!

A Spectacular Sledding Wipe-Out

Sergio Hernandez · 12/29/09 02:30PM

There's nothing like a good, old-fashioned wipe-out to make us laugh. Today, some snow, a sled, and some spectacle.

When Failed Brakes Conspire with Ice-slicked Roads

Sergio Hernandez · 12/28/09 02:30PM

Poor drivers have no worse enemy than icy weather. It not only makes their bad driving more dangerous and obvious, it also makes it more embarrassing. (But, therefore, also kind of funny.)

Snowmobile Plows into Tree

Sergio Hernandez · 12/24/09 02:00PM

First of all, this is a snowmobile, not a snow plow. Second, snow plows aren't called such because you plow into anything. Although that is funny to watch.

We know in-laws suck, but that's no reason to debase their memories by swatting their urns with coniferous evergreens! Sure is funny, though.

That's a Nose, Not a Goalpost

Kobe, He Ain't
