Warning: These Female Athlete Fails Are So Awful, You Can’t Look Away…

Some People Just Need a “Leg Up”

In the intricate sport of synchronized swimming, there are times when athletes need a leg to rest on, especially in this epic shot. While this seems so inappropriate and seriously awkward, this particular athlete is really in need of some extra assistance by her teammate, hence the leg up! But hey, anything helps right?

We wonder if the look on this swimmer’s face is one of surprise or discomfort? It very well could be that she’s just gasping for more air after being in the water. Maybe she didn’t even notice that there was a foot in her crotch, since she was too focused on the routine!

Not the Time for Break Dancing

With what looks like an epic break dancing routine, U.S. volleyball athlete Destinee Hooker takes a hard spill during the 2012 London Olympics. Judging from the celebratory reaction coming from their opponents, we assume this massive leap ended in failure, but you can’t get them all! Had this actually been a shot of a sweet break dancing routine, this action shot would have been killer!

In the end, Brazil beat out the U.S. in this match in a 3-1 upset, causing the U.S. to lose its chance at winning Olympic gold that year for Women’s Volleyball. Destinee scored 14 points in that game and was named the second-best scorer at that year’s London Olympics.
