Amazing Images of Disasters Caught At The Perfect Time

A perfectly timed photo can be quite captivating. Especially if that photo contains the seconds just before disaster is about to strike. The photographers who took these shots were in the exact right place at the right time to give us this gallery of amazing photos. Let's take a look of some incredible photos that were perfectly timed.

This glider is not performing as intended... From the looks of it the canopy is still on which doesn't spell good news for the pilot. This plane is supposed to smoothly glide through the air, not fall like it's being piloted by a kamikaze pilot!

A nice shot of her while her shirt is still white. The maintenance crew for this park has apparently been on strike for quite a while. The smile on her friend is classic though as she watches her helpless friend hilariously fall on her ass. They are after all intended for children...

This is definitely going to leave a mark. This experience might also inspire this BMX rider to wear a full-face helmet in the future. Kissing the cement is never a pleasant experience, but practice makes perfect!

The driver of this vehicle might want to think about getting this baby detailed after this incident. Luckily there is a built in roll cage to keep this driver from certain death. It's the risk these races face traveling and racing at such high speeds so close to each other.

This is a hilarious picture of comedic irony. After stabbing the bull a couple of times in front of a crowd full of people this bull says no more! You mess with the bull and you get the horns! Maybe this guy should consider a different career...

Wearing a helmet may seem like its for wussies but if that's the case I'd rather be a wuss with a full set of teeth than otherwise. It's unfortunate that as smart as humans are it takes situations like this in most cases for us to learn. Maybe we are not as intelligent as we think we are.

This is why skydiving through a firework show is a bad idea... This outcome is definitely not worth the incredible view this jumper had on the 4th of July. If someone wants to attempt this again maybe they should consider making the parachute out of a material that is fire retardant. Let's just hope this guy is landing on water.

Crocodile wrestling is apparently a real thing. For some people there is just no better way to get their daily fix of adrenaline. It's definitely not a sport for the faint of heart, or for those who have any sort of fear of possibly being eaten alive.

This brother and sister have been pranking each other since they could barely walk. It's what siblings do. He may be laughing now but there is definitively going to be payback in his near future.

It's not the greatest day in the life of this little mouse. This photographer was perfectly positioned to catch one of the grueling sides of mother nature. Poor little guy doesn't even know what's coming for him...

This is a great photo of survival of the fittest. This seal is not going down this great white shark's throat without a fight. Seen in this shot the squirmy creature just barely avoids becoming Jaws's next meal. The shore doesn't seem that far away so no thank you on the surfing lessons...

There's always that one drunk guy at the wedding that causes mayhem. This groomsman is about to cause this groom to lose the security deposit on his rented tux. Party foul on wasting the alcohol man!

None of these other guys seem to know what to do in this situation. They are even equipped with what either is a tranquilizer gun or a real one and still just spectating as their buddy becomes cheetah chow. This is probably not the zoo you want to be working at.

This restaurant apparently allows their servers to show up to work wasted. It gets pretty cold at those ski resorts so for many of them staying intoxicated is the most effective way for them to stay warm. It's just not so effective at helping keep their customers dry.

This guy's nose is never going to look the same. He is going to have a much more unique look though just like Hollywood actor Owen Wilson. Gotta have quicker reflexes if you hope to keep you good looks as a rugby player.

This is one of the more perfectly timed photos of the gallery. The man who has been pushed in by his hilarious friends has his hand resting on the water just as the photo is taken. The picture was timed so perfectly that there aren't even any ripples yet caused by a man's hand touching the water.

These soccer players head butt the ball quite a bit in a game and it still can be felt minutes after even for the pro's who have been playing the majority of their lives. Head butting the head of another soccer player is a completely different story though, and one that is going to hurt much much more. You can see the sheer amount of force that these two collided with.

The good news is that this cowboy's at least falling in the front of this bucking bronco. Ant sport where you are involved with a mammal that can kill you in one swift kick is one that should probably be spectated rather than played. Luckily for this guy he sticks his dismount in 10 point fashion.

Being able to hold your breath for over a minute is pretty much a required talent to try riding a wave like this. Not only if you falling from about 12 feet high but he will be greeted buy thousands of pounds of water crashing on top of him the second he lands. The force of the wave is going to keep him under the water for quite a while. Surfs up!

For many parents the "we dropped you on your head as a child" line is usually just that, a line. But not for these parents who fortunately for this little baby happen to be on some nice soft sand. Why would she try swinging the baby with one arm anyways?

Sometimes when your in a fight all you need to do is get out of the other person's away. This Soldier uses the momentum of his attacker against him. As a result this man's about to belly flop on some pavement which will hurt much more than when it doesn't water.

A perfectly timed photo can capture Beauty as well as impending disaster. This photographer captures a very beautiful shot of a wave crashing over a woman sitting in front of a berm of sand. It's amazing that just water and sand can create such an amazing and beautiful photo.

This guy is just now realizing how big of a mistake he has made. Running from the rules seems all fine and dandy in theory until you're in the middle of it with a countless amount of creatures that weigh as much as a vehicle with horns chasing after you. Seeing people doing things like this voluntarily makes one question then intelligence of our species.

People don't realize just how dangerous it is being a cheerleader. This is a group of cheerleaders that obviously need to spend much more time practicing as they are seen in an epic fail of this human pyramid. The football players aren't the only one putting their bodies on the line...

When you go to the ballpark to catch at a baseball game sometimes you need to be alert for foul balls depending on where you sit. Usually though you never have to worry about flying bats unless you're in a cave. This poor guy is going to be eating out of a straw for a few weeks but at least he has a nice souvenir to take home.

Sometimes when you're playing basketball and the guy you're guarding is taller and more talented than you, you have to resort to fresh tactics. This defensive player decided to pick the nose of the man who is about to dunk on him in an attempt to distract him. From the look on the offensive player's face it might be a tactic that ends up working.

Here comes Jorge Posada of the New York Yankees to save what appears to be a male damsel in distress. This poor guy is going to forever regret taking those free tickets to the game that he couldn't pass up cause of how close they were to the field. Well now he will be forever shamed in his most embarrassing photo ever!

"We're gonna need a bigger boat." That'll be funny if you've seen the movie Jaws... And this was the last time we ever saw this fisherman as he attempted to take a selfie with one of nature's most advanced predators on the planet. Luckily for us the shark spit out the camera leaving us with this epic shot.

The baby goat was cute until nature took over nurture. Now he his throwing himself head first into this poor woman who is about to need to change her shorts. Some animals are just meant to be kept in the wild...

This pilot could not have timed pulling the ejection handle any better! Hovering at the low altitudes these jets do at airshows gives these pilots very little time to react when the unthinkable happens. This is one fun ride but definitely one this pilot will never want to take again!

I don't think this woman realizes that water weighs quite a bit when it is coming in the form of several tens of thousands of gallons. She seems as calm as a woman looking at a painting in a museum. It must just be that hot of a day...

Some people will go to extreme lengths to check out some topless women laying out in a backyard. This soldier is so excited that he doesn't even care to strap himself in should they happen to come across any turbulence. Not the most honorable way to go out as a soldier...

Painting you truck the same color as the sky could be a good look, but then again it may not. This Cessna mistakes the truck for the sky and plows right into it with the driver leaping for his life. This pilot may require a bit more training before going up solo again.

Poor pup was so focused on the disk that he forgot to look out for the giant tree. This is chalked up to an owner who needs to watch where he is throwing his frisbee. I mean you wouldn't throw it off a cliff and expect your dog to jump after it would you?

This dog does not appreciate the fact that the woman got this disk before he had a chance to. Now he is coming straight for her jugular to teach her a lesson and he is not holding back. I don't even think she realizes what is about to happen.

When you pay more attention to the camera than the distance you need to clear to make the water, bad things can happen. This young boy times his shot perfectly but may not have gotten the speed he needed to keep himself from having to go look for some bandages shortly after. Gotta always keep your eye on the ball, or in this case the pool.

When you're bullied as a child or you're the bully and peek in high school, then your career choices are limited to those that involve a power trip. This officer takes out the frustration that is his life on this young and unarmed child. At least he can go home tonight to his cats to tell them how tough he was at work that day.

When one goes down several more are likely to follow. With as light as those bikes are made for these guys there is now way they're not going down when impacting a human laying on the ground like an over-sized speed bump. This is why you always have to keep an eye on that tire pressure.

That black ice can be a real pain in the ass, literally! And in this case the word "literally" is actually used correctly as it is differentiating from what is usually used as a metaphorical phrase. At least this man with the soon to be sore tail bone looks like he is going to save his coffee.

Many soccer players have to go through quite a rough time along with many headaches before learning how to head-butt the ball properly. In this photo this poor boy's face seems to be giving more than the ball. For the next few days people are going to be looking at him wondering if his parents beat him.

The friend in the background knows exactly what is about to happen judging from the look on his face. Sometimes sibling rivalry goes just a tad too far. Let's just hope he gets a little more rotation and the avoids having to have his jaw wired shut for the next few months.

That little orange boat is going to need to make a sharp left before encountering some sever wake. Who ever was in charge of loading the containers on the ship is going to have some real hell to pay and more than likely lose their job as this is going to be millions of dollars in damages cargo. Either that or the captain had a little too much to drink the night before.

Sometimes stunts just go wrong. This guy is going to be thanking his lucky stars that he went with the full-faced helmet even though his buddies were making fun of him. Now he won't look like a former NHL player. Could have gone much worse though seeing as how he jumped over a moving vehicle.

Always keep eye contact with your camera, even when it goes horribly wrong! This young man's face is never going to look quite the same. Maybe now he will go ahead and consider wearing that helmet even if the pink one was the only one there for him to use. Now he's going to be looking like Harvey Dent after going all bad guy.

Not a cool move move on this guy's part. This ass just finished watching the Avengers and is pretending to be Thor fighting against Loki. This is why alcohol in the morning is never a bright idea. Poor guy is staring directly at his doom.

This beautiful F-18 Hornet is about to be no more which really is a shame cause it is a magnificent piece of hardware. Fortunately for the pilot he was able to eject in time but let's just hope he will be clear of the soon to be fireball otherwise he will be in for some serious heat. If he does survive this he will definitely have felt the warmth from the explosion!

Not sure how this little go-kart managed to get the speed to end up in this position but let's just hope it landed on it's wheels. Cause if it doesn't this driver may not be taking place in any more races in his near future. I'm sure that neck brace will keep him nice and safe though.

This man has a nice shot of him on his vacation end of this bicyclist going head-first into the street light pole. Apparently the woman behind this camera was very attractive causing this rider to take his eyes off the road. It's a rookie mistake and you hate to see it but it's part of the game.

He was mistaken when he assumed the bullet stop chasing him in the water. Now his worst nightmare is being realized as this bull is about to show this man the true definition of pain. It's not really the animal you want to be messing with. But hey to each their own right?

There are usually signs posted that read not to sit on the rail that annoy many of us. People like this are the reason that signs like that have to be made and posted. The signs that without, Darwinism would have claimed the lives of many years ago leaving us with a population with a much higher IQ. You know the second one is about to go down too!

It's not just the men that can get down and dirty. This woman who seems to have no issues with pain is getting a new lesson in it with a fist straight to the face! That one is for sure going to leave a mark! It's the leaders of the female fight club.

There's always going to be one at the party that spills the drink. You just usually hope that said drink does not end up on the one girl that decided to be the designated driver. Everyone but her sees what is about to happen but she is completely unaware. She is about to feel like a coach that just won it all!

A perfectly timed photo of big bro being the fun-loving sibling that he is. Popping the clutch in first while on cement is usually always going to end up in this result. This is why helmets are made people, they aren't just for a fashion statement. Grandma still seems to have pretty good reaction time for her age.

This look is not uncommon if it is on a dirt bike and about 30 ft higher in the air. For this street bike rider though the outcome is going to be much different and most likely more painful. With the high speeds that these racers travel at there is bound to be some freaky looking accidents.

Let's just hope that this cowboy has already started and completed his family because odds are his little fellas are not going to be doing too much swimming after this. Standing behind a bronco that is bucking is never a good idea and here we can see why. The men can feel the pain just staring at this picture while the women are more than likely laughing it up.

No this man is not the messiah making his return, but if you have a speedboat about to land on you then you just may get the adrenaline boost you need to run as fast as the Flash and run on water. Fear can be one of the most effective motivators apparently. This photographer could not have timed this photo any better!

The presidential seats at this event might need to have a slightly taller wall built in front of it. They asked for the best view in the house but I don't think they realized they would become part of the action. This bull has had just about enough of them laughing at his pain so he has decided to just go for the leap like a competitive horse! That is one animal I would not want leaping in the air towards me!

This is why you should never toast to already being drunk. Those are even some pretty thick glasses so these two must have really been excited about whatever they were toasting to. Odds are their meals are now going to be completely ruined, unless a beer flavored meal is what they were looking forward to...

That one is definitely going to leave a mark. These swimmers take a pretty big risk trying to pull off some of the dives that they do. This diver is going to need a little more practice if she plans on making the Olympic team 4 years from now. This is more than likely going to affect her entrance into the water.

The patience of this photographer has paid off more than he would have thought. Not wearing a bra can come back to bite you if you happen to walk into a very cold room, or in this woman's case bend over enough to expose some major under-boob to the rest of the park. I'm sure none of the guys were complaining but I'm sure as soon as she sees this picture she's going to second-guess going commando the next time she goes to the dog park.

The Marilyn Monroe shot but on a sailboat instead. Fortunately for this woman she did not decide to go commando as this would have been a much more embarrassing photo for her. After all it is just a bathing suit under that skirt but it is still enough to drive most men bonkers.

From the looks of it this young woman may not have rotated enough. Practicing for the cheer leading squad doesn't come without a few bumps and bruises on the noggin. This photographer is waiting very patiently for some body parts to expose themselves.

Best senior prank ever! the senior class decided to take their prank one step further by waiting on the roof of their school with a few hundred gallons of water as the staff took their picture for the yearbook.

His mom and little sister had the best view in the house for this young man's bicycle dive into the lake. As good as their view as though they're definitely going to end up in the Splash Zone. Let's just hope for the sake of this bicyclist that the water is more than 4 feet deep.

When you can train your dog to go piss on the ex girlfriend, you have yourself one hell of a cool dog.

 As long as these parents about their child a car for their 16th birthday and I'm sure they won't mind the fact that the birthday cake was fumbled and destroyed. The hubby has already had one too many beers and wrapped his arm around her shoulder a little too quickly causing her to drop the cake that she's been working on for 4 hours. Major party foul!

 Back flip fail into the pool! Practice makes perfect though so this woman has a lot of work ahead of her if she ever plants to stick the landing with her feet rather than her face. Fortunately for her it's just water but it is still going to feel not so awesome. Although she probably won't feel anything considering the amount of alcohol it took for her to even attempt this.
