We all make mistakes. That's pretty much inevitable in life. But sometimes, the gaffes we cause end up costing us a lot more than just a few bucks. And when that happens, it really sucks.

So, to make you feel better, I wanted to share with you a few of such disasters. Once you see those, you'll feel much better that it didn't happen to you, ha, ha. And it will remind you to be more careful the next time you try something.

This Breakfast Fail

Let's just say that things got a little out of hand while cooking breakfast. Oh my goodness, can you even believe that? That must've been some bacon and eggs, eh? This is going to cost a pretty penny, that's for sure.

This Obstacle

Speaking of busses, what do you think about this scene here? I guess this favorite live music venue in Minneapolis will be closed indefinitely. That'll do it. This will teach whoever did it to pay more attention next time.

This Unfortunate Incident

If you're trying to sell your place you better hope this doesn't happen to you. Apparently, the ceiling collapsed right before these people were about to put it up on the market. Yikes! That changes things. I don't envy them one bit.

This Road Accident

I really commend truck drivers. It must be hard to navigate the road, especially with a full load. I'm not sure what exactly happened here, but that's going to take some muscle to get sorted out. Am I right?

This Garage Mistake

reddit | u/Texas-Stew

This is what happens when you forget about your $5,000 bike on your roof rack as you pull into the garage. Holy, moly! Who knew that could happen? Not only is the bike crushed, but now this person needs a new car window, too. Oh, snap!

This Computer Bandit

Perhaps it's a good idea to keep your cat away from your computer screen, especially when he's still a kitten. In case you didn't know, they like to chew on things. This person here found that out the hard way.

This Devoted Bus Driver

This is what happens when you thought you were going to miss your flight, but the bus driver was like, "I've got you, Boo." The only problem is that now nobody is going to fly. So there, that serves you right.

This Toddler Revenge

Toddlers sure grow up fast. Am I right? Well, this little tyke tried to use the microwave and grabbed anything he could find to cook inside of it. It didn't turn out all that great, as you can see.

This Prickly Predicament

Oh, boy! This isn't something you see every day, eh? I'm not sure where this happened, perhaps Arizona or something like that. But I can honestly say I've never seen a cactus that crashed into the front window of a car.

This Crappy Job

You think that when you take your expensive car to the shop, it will be safe. Am I right? However, this mechanic must've been asleep on the job to let this happen to this customer's car. Oh, heck no! I would be so pissed off.

This BBQ Phone

It really sucks when you lose your phone at an outdoor festival. That's what happened to this person here. The good thing is that a few hours later, they actually found it. The thing is though, that when they located it, it was burning next to the campfire. That's not the kind of BBQ I like, ha, ha.

This Boat Accident

We are fortunate to have a friend who has a similar boat to this one. The good thing is that he knows how to dock because this person sure doesn't, ha, ha. I don't think the other boat owners will appreciate that. What a stupid move, right?

This Luxury Car Crash

Let me ask you: what's your favorite sports car? I've always been a Ferrari girl, and I would love to cruise around in one. That's probably what this person was doing too. However, it isn't where I would like to end up. What a waste of a great car, huh?

This Shower Slip

Let me ask you: have you ever slipped in the shower? Well, if you have, at least you didn't land on the toilet as this person did here. Not only do they must feel quite bruised, but now they need to get a new toilet installed. Oh, crap!

This Roofing Job Gaffe

OMG, would you look at that? Yeah, the cost literally went through the roof for somebody, ha, ha. I can just hear the roofing company saying this to the homeowners, "Sorry, ma’am, the estimate is gonna be a little more than we initially thought."

This TV Fail

Mounting a TV to the wall is a cool idea. However, you have to make sure you do it properly. Otherwise, you might come home one day to find it like this on the floor. That doesn't look good, huh?

This Worst Case Scenario

600 broken plates in a restaurant kitchen
reddit | u/CookiesAreGodz-64

If you think you're having a bad day, I can guarantee you're not the only one. In fact, the person who caused roughly 600 plates to crash in this restaurant is feeling much worse than you. Can you imagine explaining this to your boss?

This Multi-Vehicle Garage Mistake

reddit | u/itsMineD

It must be cool to have a multi-car garage like this one, huh? However, this person forgot one crucial step. They didn't realize they parked on the top of the self-hiding garage. Yikes! That's what happens when you're absent-minded.

What did I tell you?

You clearly don't have it as rough as these people here. When they're having a bad day, it's really extreme. So no matter what happens to you today, be grateful that at least you didn't have to experience any of these mistakes. Did that make you feel better? I truly hope so.
