We’ve all had those moments where things just don’t go the way we imagined. Sometimes it’s a small slip-up, other times it’s a full-blown disaster. But no matter the scale, these blunders tend to be the moments we look back on and laugh the hardest. From dropped phones to toothpaste mix-ups, the funniest (and most cringe-worthy) mistakes are the ones we share with friends for years to come.

5. I accidentally ripped out my eyelashes an hour before I got married.

6. A girl I know went to the zoo and accidentally dropped her phone. She didn’t want it back.
