25 People Who Celebrated Too Early
From athletes who thought they had the win and got it stripped away at the last second, to blunders that cost people the victory. Join me as I show you 25 people who celebrated too early.
25. Nailed It...Then Got Nailed...
Often times, a victory celebration is warranted, required even! After all, when you do something pretty epic and you feel the overwhelming energy that is within you, why would you want to celebrate it? Take for example this young kid. We'll show you part of this gif first because it's really a two-part thing.
As you can see here in "part one", this kid just made a very nice dunk that any parent would be proud of. And the kid celebrates as a result. But...
...as part two of the gif shows, the kid made such an epic dunk that it shook the basketball net and stand loose...and caused it to conk him on the head.
Spacial awareness kid! It's important for athletes to have!
24. That Should've Went In!
And just so you know, it's not just regular people who have premature celebration syndrome, it happens all the time in the major leagues of sports from all over the world! Take for example the NBA, where one Los Angeles Lakers player thought he had just drilled a three-pointer as he saw it "go in" to the net. Except that it didn't. It hit the wrong angle and the shot bounced out.
Not only does he look like a fool for doing a pose for the shot he missed, but the shot eventually made its way to the hands of the opposite team!
So you failed to make the shot AND you look like an idiot. That's an 0-2 situation on this 3.
23. Too Cool...To Pay Attention
Yeah...let's call this another of those "hard knocks" lessons. Because sometimes the idea of looking cool after nailing something totally epic is just too much to ignore. And you plan it so well in your head that you know it'll look good once you land it...and it does...but there's always a catch.
For this guy, he's got skills. Clearly he does parkour and he lands this amazing flip with little effort and goes right into the shades put on. A classic move in every way. And if we were to stop the gif here, we'd be good, and so would he. But...
...spacial awareness strikes again! You didn't see the pole because you were focused on the camera. And now you're flat on your back. Live and learn!
22. Gloating = Losing
I felt bad for the last guy, but I do NOT feel bad for this one. Not one little bit. Because while it's nice to know that you've "won", no one like a gloater, especially when they're taunting the competition right before crossing the finish line.
And this guy? He went the full nine yards in order to gloat. Pointing to the crowd, skating on just one blade, making noises...yeah, he's an idiot. And he felt like one when the guy he thought he "beat" was in a better skating pose and blasted right by him to get the win.
You get what you deserve buddy.
21. Slide!
Admit it, we've all done it. We've all slid on slick floors in order to see how far we could go, or to trick our buddies into hurting themselves. But for this guy? Yeah, he did all the work himself.
I'll give him credit, he did commit to it, and he did make it the first time with a little help from his buddy getting "clingy" on him to make sure that he stayed upright. But...then he decided he wanted to go for the double tap...and well...this happened.
Accept the victory and move on man! It's not that hard!
20. Run Faster!
Alright, the first couple people I might have been a little harsh on (some of them deserved it though), but for this lady, the only thing I fault her for is letting off the gas a little too early. You can clearly see her looking up at either the screen or the clock to see that she is about to win the race. And she honestly is keeping up a good pace.
But, the girl behind her is so desperate to win that she goes Beast Mode and races right by her. A classic mistake. Focus on the front, not anything else.
19. Touch All The Bases
In sports, there are a few basic lessons that you honestly should know. What not to do with other players, respect the officials, and more. But in Baseball and Softball, there is a very basic rule that people seem to forget at times. Watch this video and see what I mean.
Yep, she forgot to touch all the bases, despite it technically being a home run. And so, she was out. To be fair though, a lot of people were mad about the out when it happened because it seemed like a pitiful thing to allow since it was clearly a home run.
But...that's the rules.
18. GOOOAAALLL!!!!
Sometimes, the worst times to be cocky is when you think you nailed something so epic, and then karma just goes right around you and bites you in the . You usually wouldn't think about that happening in soccer. But this goalie is about to change your mind. Check it out.
Oops.
