Hilarious Spring Break Fails

Spring break should be a time to let your hair down and really get away from the pressures of school and college life. But it's true what your parents told you: sometimes too much of a good thing can be very bad for you. And don't just take our word for it: the people involved in these pictures will no doubt tell you the same thing.

1. More cow bell

"Moooove over so I can fit under the umbrella!" No need to have a cow, there's enough shade for everyone. Plus the smaller bovine already got a lot of sun by the look of its crispy brown coat. Amazing, the Imgur caption for this insane photo places the action on Indian Beach in North Carolina. Unexpected.

2. That's how they getcha

Redditor "finnicko" wanted to memorialize their va-cay with an awesome picture of the entire group. And clearly the best option was to ask their tour guide to snap a photo. But it seems that this particular tour guide had ideas of his own. Not only has he got himself in on the action, but he's also blurred out the main gang. Brutal.

3. Blessed photo

If you're going to make the pilgrimage to see the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for your spring break, then you're going to want to take a picture of it, right? But here Pedro Mendonça took things to the next level by capturing a "3D picture..." Well, not quite — but it's the next best thing.

4. A grand letdown

"Come to the Grand Canyon," they said. "It'll be fun," they said. Well, clearly those folks who loved the Grand Canyon so much visited the stunning area on a day with better weather. But for poor "bostontom" on Reddit, the trip couldn't be captured in stunning photographs because, well, there was nothing to be stunningly photographed.
