Selfies, group photos, and poses – yep, us travellers are taking more pics than ever before, which is fantastic news for those amongst us that love to rain on someone else's photographic parade...

Yes, the photobomber is that special kind of human that finds joy in intentionally making an impromptu appearance in someone else’s photographic performance, ruining the special moment and making the photo memorable for all the wrong reasons…

But it’s not always intentional. Technically defined, photobombing can also be totally accidental – a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. And sometimes this can lead to hilarious results, as these images below totally demonstrate…

 

1. Is that a high five? Or are you just happy to see me?

Okay, so this tourist was totally asking for it. Holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Pff, it’s a total cliché.

My bet is that this guy was an American on a Euro trip.

Where do you think he’s from?

 

2. Hey there, ladies!

Unfortunately, this poor stingray hasn’t exactly gotten the most positive response from these young ladies…

But at least the elder broads to the side were having a good time!

 

3. Sharks like selfies too!

So this dude is either incredibly stupid or incredibly brave?

I mean, he is this close to having his head bitten off by two rows of top-of-the-food-chain teeth!

 

4. Older creepy guys like to pose too!

This guy looks like a fitness instructor who travels through time and space to photobomb the $hit out of people.

But my, time travel certainly ages you…

 

5. Sometimes you eat the (camel) burger…

And sometimes, well, the (camel) burger eats you…

Or it may just be a cute bonding moment between a tourist and her camel in the Moroccan Sahara – what do you think?

Which photobomb do you think is the funniest?
