12+ Times Adults Tried To Find Their Inner Child And Failed

Adulting can get so exhausting sometimes with working late hours, chores, cooking and all kinds of errands one has to do each day. So it's no wonder many of us want to just be a kid again and spend the day playing.

But as these folks found out letting your inner child out can sometimes end up being tricky or even painful.

1. Just Swinging

Who knew you can actually get stuck in a kid's swing? OMG, I had no idea and I bet she didn't know that either. LOL!

2. Firefighters To The Rescue

If there's one good thing about this story is that at least she got to hang out with some cute firefighters. Hmm, not too bad.

3. Who's Laughing Now?

I think children's playgrounds should start displaying warnings to deter stupid people from trying stuff like this. Nah, I don't it would even help. LOL.

4. Slip 'n Slide

How's this for an image you'll always remember? I'm so glad this isn't my uncle's first time on a waterslide. I hope he survived.

5. Playing Dead?

I'm trying to figure out how this girl got herself in this clearly uncomfortable situation. Just let go and slide-out already! Geez, what a baby.

6. Ride That Unicorn

Because all girls just love unicorns? I guess this girl does. Even though this ride is clearly for a child she just couldn't help herself.

7. Yoga In Nature

She just wanted to do some yoga poses in the fields but the rainbow had other plans. LOL. Coincidence or lucky accident? What do ya think?

8. Going For A Ride

I get it, it's hard to resist these cute rides, even as an adult. I just hope she was able to get out okay.

9. Water Balloon Fight

It's all fun and games until someone gets their head smashed in with a flying water balloon. Right? Looks like fun but that must've hurt. Haha!

10. Not So Genius Afterall

I bet this guy thought he can outsmart the playground equipment by crawling inside of it but the playground had the final laugh.

I wonder how dumb people feel when the fire department shows up to rescue them from getting into things they shouldn't be getting into?

Turns out regular swings are not the only danger lurking in children's playgrounds. This girl managed to get stuck in a rope baby swing. Looks painful.

I've seen people do some pretty stupid things before but this one takes the cake. How in the heck did he even get into this? Anyone?

I hope this will teach you that some childhood things shouldn't be messed around with.

You wouldn't want to get yourself into one of these sticky situations, would you?
