These Fails Look Like They’re Going To Cost A Pretty Penny
Sometimes when you mess up, nobody can really tell. You quickly clean up or just sweep everything under the rug and you move on with your life. Sometimes, though, mistakes are so big and so expensive that they just can't be ignored.
Keep reading to see some people who made some really expensive mistakes. Honestly, some of these accidents actually hurt to look at. Just thank your lucky stars that you didn't cause any of theses messes.
It All Burned Down
This supercar storage facility in Cheshire burned down for an unknown reason.
I mean, it was full of very flammable fuel, but something must have lit the initial spark, right?
Strong Winds
This set of silos couldn't hold up to the 80 miles per hour winds that were happening in Iowa.
I don't know if we can just blame this on the weather or if the person who built this structure has some explaining to do.
Time For A Photo
I don't know how these guys managed to do it, but it looks like they flipped a giant truck completely upside down.
This is probably the last photo they took before they all got fired.
Someone Left It There
This Reddit user found a Lamborghini Urus that crashed and was abandoned in Andorra.
Who has so much money that they can just abandon a Lamborghini? That's mind-boggling to me.
He Forgot
This guy forgot that he had a bicycle strapped to the roof of his car and then drove into his garage anyway.
Now he needs a new bike and a new car.
That's A Lot Of Monitors
This is what it looks like when a $300,000 wall of monitors just falls over.
I don't know who failed to secure this properly, but they should probably be fired.
Someone Messed Up
Well, it looks like someone at this auto shop is getting fired immediately.
This person thought that their car was safe at the shop. Then the car got impaled by a lift.
Not The Best At Breakfast
This guy decided to cook breakfast in his new RV and things didn't go so smoothly.
I think it's time for a new RV, and maybe he shouldn't make bacon in a vehicle ever again.
So Much Paint
Reddit user Mr_PoodlePants posted this photo online along with the caption:
"When transporting paint make sure it is properly secured. Especially if you are driving in a $90,000 Maserati."
Close Your Window
This guy lives in Svalbard, Norway, and he forgot to close his office window on the day of a massive snowstorm.
Yeah, I don't think any of that furniture is going to be okay.
Down The Slope
Apparently a McLaren 600LT went off on the Dragon at Deals Gap.
If you have a car that's as expensive as this one, you should probably be a bit more careful with it.
Get Off The Road
A woman who wasn't paying attention to the road decided to make a right turn right into this car.
Don't text and drive, people! You don't want to end up in a situation like this.
A Massive Sinkhole
These residential homes in South Dakota were unknowingly built over an undisclosed abandoned gypsum mine.
This massive sinkhole means that all of the properties on this street are now worthless.
It Was Hailing
This guy decided to take his new Lamborghini out for a spin on the same day that giant ice pellets decided to rain down from the sky.
I bet he wishes he kept it in the garage.
That's A Lot Of Plates
The cabinet in this commercial kitchen fell over and now there are 600 broken dishes all over the floor.
Yeah, it wasn't a good time at the restaurant that day.
He Thought He Had More Time
This truck driver thought that the train was going slower than it actually was. He tried to cross the train tracks and ended up in this mess.
Always stop to listen for trains.
Shedding Like a Snake
The person who shared this photo was a mechanic for this garage, assigned to fix this SUV.
I say "was" because chances are, they no longer what their job here.
He Got Stuck
You know when they ask you if you want the premium insurance option when you rent a U-Haul? I really hope that this guy chose that option.
I guess he wasn't used to driving a truck.
Yacht A Big Deal
There's eating at a restaurant a couple times a week expensive, and then there's sinking a yacht expensive.
I hope that these two don't have to foot the bill for the waterlogged ship.
It Came Back
They say if you set it free and it comes back, it was yours all along.
I guess this oil rig wanted to come back to land because here it is.
Right In The Water
I have no idea how this Tesla ended up in the ocean, but whoever put it there is going to have some huge bills to pay.
Teslas are good, but they can't survive everything.
"We're Here"
Clearly, someone forgot to call out, "Land ahoy!" because here we are.
This photo was taken in Alaska in 1910, showing a ship named the Princess May high and dry on the rocks.
The Saddest Supercar
This Ferrari was melted and destroyed in the warehouse that it was "safely" being stored in. Well, so much for that.
It's rough enough to see a supercar crashed on the side of the highway. This one wasn't even being driven when it met its untimely death.
He Didn't Read The Sign
Someone shared this photo of a street sweeper obliterating a wooden bridge in Norway.
Another Redditor commented on the photo, pointing out that the sign with the exclamation point on it reads: Bridge is unsuitable for motorized vehicles."
The Carrier Tipped, Totaling 420 Vehicles
420 people are going to be upset that their cars never made it to their destination.
That's because a carrier called The Golden Ray tipped over in the water and took down 420 vehicles with it.
Nature Being Rude
We're not sure who is to blame: the contractor, or whoever hired the contractor. Regardless, this new bridge plan wasn't very well-researched before the build.
This bridge was barely used before the water shifted, making it obsolete.
Someone Deserves A Time-out
This parent thought it would be nice to take their kid to a new Lego exhibit that had just opened. JUST opened.
In fact, the exhibition had only been opened for one hour, debuting its new professional Lego builds when one kid came along and wrecked it for everyone.
The Technician That Blew Up This F-16
A technician working on this F-16 accidentally misfired the Vulcan cannon and blew this baby into smithereens.
It was peacefully sitting on the runway before this guy was hired to fix a small problem.
There's A Helicopter On Your Windshield
Ron Burgundy wouldn't even be mad, but impressed with how this helicopter managed to crash just so.
Fortunately, no one was on the bus when this chopper pinned itself to the front.
A Piece of History Gone
The Ford Model T is one of the oldest cars in modern history. This classic vehicle is a rare sight. That's why it's so upsetting that it was totaled while on a joy drive. Someone should feel very, very bad for what they did.
Bro! Your Boat!
Usually when a boat isn't hitched properly, you'll know right away.
Yet this person managed to merge onto the highway before they realized that they had made on big mistake.
Wine About It
Someone working at Bodegas Vitivinos winery in Spain made a very bad mistake. This upsetting photo shows 50,000 liters of wine pouring out onto the ground
Not only is this a lot of expensive wine down the drain, but one big mess.
An Expensive Snake Bite
Health care is a mess in America, that's not secret. But who would have thought that it costs this much to treat a rattlesnake bite?!
It might be best not to leave your house at all-- it might cost you a pretty penny-- or $153,161.25.
Call The Fire Department?
Someone actually flipped this photo sideways to make it look like this vehicle is stuck up on a wall.
But if you turn your head, you can see that it's actually perfectly stuck in a ditch on the side of the road. Either way, not great.
They're Going To Need Backup
This is a mildly embarrassing and very expensive situation you see here.
It looks like the firetruck was responding to a call when they drove a little too far towards the river.
Hanging By A Thread
This photo is upsetting because it almost looks like there's a chance that this aircraft could be rescued.
But let's be honest, whoever slid the fighter jet off the runway probably isn't going to have access to one for a long, long time.
The Bull Has the Right of Way
Don't you hate when you have the right of way and someone else just goes ahead? I'm guessing that's how this bull was feeling.
But at least when you're a bull, you can just go ahead and move that car right out of the way.
One Vehicle Did All Of This Damage
Judging by the photo, there are at least five brand new cars that were totaled when a drive hit the curb, flew off the road and drove across the hood.
They say the car loses its value as soon as you drive it off the lot but this is ridiculous.
A Very Expensive Sink Hole
There has to be more than one person to blame for this expensive disaster.
Thankfully the floor wasn't fully built yet before the entire foundation caved in on this construction mess.
Weren't Supposed To Drill There
Who even knows what's below the ground we walk on? Well, these guys probably should know considering it's their job.
Looks like someone forgot to check if there were cables running below them before they started drilling.
Someone's Great Great Grandfather Messed Up
It's fun to hear family stories of ridiculous things your grandparents did back in the day.
I'm sure whoever's great great grandfather that drove a train through a concrete wall will never live this story down.
