Every now and then, humanity delivers a moment so magnificently clueless you can almost hear the national anthem sighing. This slideshow salutes those glorious lapses in judgment, the ones that make you stare into the middle distance, hands on hips, wondering how we’ve made it this far as a species.
Somewhere in this parade of loonies, you’ll spot a guy wearing his motorcycle helmet all wrong like he’s reinventing safety. You’ll catch lunch collapsing dramatically onto a computer. And yes, there’s a coffin that made a surprise exit through a car window, because even the dead like a plot twist.
That’s not everything, but you’ll have to click to see how many crazy things have happened while you were not looking. Go on, the flag’s halfway down and shaking its head like a disappointed uncle.
