The best selfie fails: 10 self-portraits gone awry

Last year, a British study reported that selfies are one of the most popular genres of photography. Surprised? We’ve all at least seen a few of those self-indulgent self-portraits in front of a souped-up Acura or bathroom mirror before. The shots are everywhere these days, giving us the impression that we have control over our digital identity. The phenomenon (or, is it obsession?) has become so intense that some attempts to take the perfect self-portrait have resulted in harm or even death.

Nonetheless, every so often a selfie can capture a spontaneous moment, whether the photo was intentional or merely a victim of precise timing. That’s when things get interesting. Here are 10 selfies that went awry the moment the shutter opened.

#7: Bad-guy selfie — This is what pre-gaming looks like in the 21st century, regardless if you have plans to meet at the closest bar or rob a convenience store.

#10: Contractions selfie — This guy might be in the running for the most obnoxious student ever, given his teacher is having contractions. Still, you gotta give him credit.

I take a lot of pictures on a daily basis. And while I usually get to offload them in the comfort of my home, sometimes I need to export as quickly as possible. Maybe even straight from my phone.
