Top 30 Brilliantly Timed Sports Photos

1. Skelly - November 26th, 2007 at 8:28 am

Great list. Might want to apply the NSFW tag because of number 6 though

2. Emily - November 26th, 2007 at 8:29 am

lol. those were great. wtf is with 24?

3. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 8:38 am

Skelly: oops - I forgot about that one - rather than tag is NSFW just because of one image I have replaced it with a safe one.

Emily: Either Alien impregnation or a gust of wind I suspect

4. Juggz - November 26th, 2007 at 8:56 am

HAHA great pics, some of those are classic especially 10!

5. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 8:58 am

Juggz: 10 has been on the site before but I HAD to include it here. I can’t help but laugh every time I see it.

6. Jeroen - November 26th, 2007 at 9:02 am

Funnny list. You realize number 17 is photoshopped? I remember seeing it on Fark a long time ago. There may be others too. Number 9 is weird, because the girl farther away is still bigger than the one in front. And I don’t trust #16 either.

7. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 9:07 am

Jeroen: I did figure that one or two might be. I didn’t realize that 17 was.

8. killrthm - November 26th, 2007 at 9:07 am

Several of these are well-known photoshops

9. rp - November 26th, 2007 at 9:35 am

One of my personal favorites is the Georgia Bulldogs mascot almost de-nutting an Auburn wide reciever in the end zone. Don’t spike the ball on Uga.

10. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 9:38 am

rp: hah that is great.

11. Ravyn - November 26th, 2007 at 9:49 am

such a funny list.

12. Ian - November 26th, 2007 at 9:55 am

Interesting, although 17 and 16 are almost certainly fake.

13. Harsha - November 26th, 2007 at 10:06 am

Most of these are from mmoabc check out the ones that weren’t on the list!!

14. DiscHuker - November 26th, 2007 at 10:14 am

I have a new #1 for this list.
http://www.planetdan.net/pics/misc/eagan_big.jpg
nothing perfectly illustrates the concept of timing like this one. his stomach had to be rumbling before this. the camera snapped at the exact moment. the rest of the team is still totally oblivious. this is why camera’s were invented. to perfectly capture a moment in time.

15. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 10:21 am

DiscHuker: ARGH! I was eating a corn chip with houmous on when I looked at that!

16. DiscHuker - November 26th, 2007 at 10:24 am

unintended result but a normal reaction. that picture is glorious.

17. dangorironhide - November 26th, 2007 at 10:26 am

All those pictures are awesome, but after reading comment 1 I really want to see that one now haha

18. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 10:26 am

DiscHuker: glorious in its grossness

19. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 10:31 am

dangorironhide: haha - it was a slipped nipple

20. Fallenangel - November 26th, 2007 at 10:44 am

Oh I do love it when you do the picture ones… funny, haunting, amazing, Love ‘em all. Thank you.

21. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 10:54 am

Fallenangel: thank you I must confess - I love putting the photos together

22. angelina - November 26th, 2007 at 12:20 pm

Ha Ha! Great list! No controversey here, just damn funny!

23. jfrater - November 26th, 2007 at 12:20 pm

angelina: I thought we could do with a day free of controversy

24. rp - November 26th, 2007 at 12:42 pm

DiscHuker: When I read your quote I was afraid that it was a pic of the unfortunate weight lifter.

25. DiscHuker - November 26th, 2007 at 1:01 pm

oh, geez. i’ve seen that one. i woulda definately included a NSFW or NSFAEE (not safe for anyone’s eyes ever)

26. angelina - November 26th, 2007 at 1:34 pm

Oooh . . . the weightlifter . . . Poor guy! Talk about sacrificing your body for the sport!!

27. angelina - November 26th, 2007 at 2:59 pm

jfrater: Free of controversy? No such thing on this website . . . that’s what makes it so damn good!

28. Space Ace - November 26th, 2007 at 4:08 pm

What’s with all the shops?

29. D Holmes - November 26th, 2007 at 4:40 pm

#30
That women is truly frightening.

She’d make a great film villain, regardless of her acting skills. Why? The first two words that came to mind when I saw that photo was: pure evil.

30. aplspud - November 26th, 2007 at 4:42 pm

Pretty neat what a high speed shot says about the human body and physics. Some of these definitely look photoshopped, but that’s ok. Is 27 just about her facial expression? 20 and 22 are my faves. Would love a link to the previous #6

31. Erin - November 26th, 2007 at 5:25 pm

The guy with the super funny face in #1 is missing

32. Kelsi - November 26th, 2007 at 8:10 pm

What part of this is NSFW? Anyway…these were really laugh out loud funny, but the riding one made me cringe, especially after reading recently that there have been 11 fatalities in eventing (the sport pictured) between 11/06 and 11/07, a record high. =( The horse in the photo almost certainly fell on her.

33. poy4ever - November 26th, 2007 at 8:31 pm

hey this is very funny….
wAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHA…..

from the start i thought this is not funny but when i see all… its great……

34. ravi - November 26th, 2007 at 8:31 pm

gr8 list
#7 is my fav

35. Gryphon - November 26th, 2007 at 8:59 pm

Im very suspicious of 13,16 and 17. Normally when it doesnt feel right it isn’t.

36. Samiam - November 26th, 2007 at 9:12 pm

LOL Number 5 amuses me very much.

37. jtrawl - November 26th, 2007 at 9:52 pm

you definitely need to include the rex grossman/green bay packers picture in this group. ha its hilarious!

http://blogs.smarter.com/sport.....aily-wire/

38. 20Fan20 - November 26th, 2007 at 10:58 pm

Great list, though there are a lot of shops included.
I do like the #1 pic. Take another look, does no one want to protect the little girl! Great parental instincts in action!

ps no the guy shielding the wrong side of her head does not count…

39. jbjr - November 26th, 2007 at 11:01 pm

13 looks like the soccer ball was added (it looks to big). 10 very funny. I bet she could grow a 5 o’clock shadow. Number 5 is too funny. No its TOO funny.

I got a e-mail recently with Grossman and the packers.

40. Mal - November 27th, 2007 at 3:06 am

The best(?) part about #1 is that the bat hit the only person who didnt try and block it..I dont know why, but thats just brilliant.(and the little girl at the very bottom whos so bored by watching baseball doesnt even realize whats happening!)

and lets not forget:

To not F*!$ with Vinnie Jones’!
http://haacked.com/images/haac.....jones5.jpg

and Phil Babbs’ little run in..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti4vpffQFVo
(Sorry, could only find a video, but I remember seeing a really good photo just moments before he hit the post, and the horrific expression on his face was just about one of the funniest (yet painful) things i’ve seen.)

41. Mal - November 27th, 2007 at 3:10 am

Dont f*!k with Vinnie Jones!:
http://haacked.com/images/haac.....jones5.jpg

Phil Babbs’ run in:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti4vpffQFVo
(could only find the video, but there is a brilliant photo somewhere…)

42. Dandelion - November 27th, 2007 at 5:43 am

This is great!

43. Columbo - November 27th, 2007 at 6:34 am

20Fan20: What do you mean no body wants to protect her? That guy in pic #1 has clearly taken it upon himself to shield her with his face. I’m pretty sure he’s the Terminator……or possibly Chuck Norris.

44. Ravyn - November 27th, 2007 at 7:09 am

20Fan20: Maybe the guy who is protecting the wrong side of her face is about to push her down to help her get out of the way (though a little late). The little girl looks like she is getting ready to fly or is hugging an angel or something.

45. allyouneedislove - November 27th, 2007 at 4:55 pm

Ouch. 7 looks painful.
And number 3 looks like a wonderful piece of modern art.

46. meken - November 28th, 2007 at 5:20 am

lol, 13 is fake. The ball is added. The background is blurry while the ball is not.

47. Butterfish - November 28th, 2007 at 6:55 am

Yes, #7 is painful, I’ve had that happen to me a fair few times. Though the baseball in the face in #20 has to do more damage.

Picture from my fave sport, Aussie Rule:

48. jfrater - November 29th, 2007 at 12:33 am

Apologies for the temporary holder images - they have all been link jacked and I am trying to make up for the massive loss in bandwidth we are experiencing as a result.

49. DAILY RUMORS - November 29th, 2007 at 4:08 am

YOUR PICTURES ARE STOLEN FROM HERE!
http://my.mmoabc.com/article/M.....l?login=no

SHAME!

50. jfrater - November 29th, 2007 at 4:12 am

DAILY RUMORS: six of thirty are from mmoabc - and I have left their watermarks on them and copied them to my own server - I am not stealing their bandwidth like you were stealing mine.

Also, note: I do not feel so insecure that I need to delete your comments as you have done on your site.

How old are you?

51. xdarkhorsex - November 29th, 2007 at 4:20 am

what the hell? compiling a list of “best of” photos means that you are going to be using other people’s photographs, what a nimrod. I really don’t see the problem here. I hardly think that mmoabc is responsible for taking the pictures themselves, however it’s nice that they added their watermark to the photo’s without giving proper credit to the actual photographer.

52. jfrater - November 29th, 2007 at 4:24 am

xdarkhorsex: he is annoyed because he pasted 15 of the ones from here on his site and got to the front page of digg with it - he is now being slandered to hell there and on reddit because he didn’t just copy the images, he copied my introduction and hotlinked - meaning my bandwidth (which I have to pay for) was being used for his site. I removed the images which meant they vanished from his site too and he is angry with me.

I have said this on other lists - I don’t mind people using my lists as a source - even copying parts of it verbatim, as long as they don’t hotlink my images which uses up a LOT of my system resources - and as we all know, we are still trying to get uptime problems solved here.

53. Sarah - November 29th, 2007 at 7:52 pm

LOL i laughed soo hard at number 15!

54. DiscHuker - November 30th, 2007 at 6:30 am

i notice he didn’t come back, jfray. keep up the good work. maybe one day you’ll see him on the pitch and you can do a live recreation of #4. (you be the guy in red, though)

55. jfrater - November 30th, 2007 at 6:51 am

DiscHuker: hahaha

56. rxsheepxr - November 30th, 2007 at 8:35 am

#17 is a proven Photoshop job, but the rest were pretty neat.

57. Austin - November 30th, 2007 at 7:05 pm

In picture #1: If that bat flew left two people, it would have killed that baby!!

58. devilishgrin66 - December 9th, 2007 at 5:09 am

#29 almost seems out of place. If I’m remembering this all correctly, thats Bobby Orr and this is an overtime Stanley Cup game. Bobby had just passed the puck behind the net and when hit was passed back to him he took a shot (I’m pretty sure he had tripped or something and was in midair) and scored, winning the game.

All the others are more of a funny/shocking nature, Orr’s picture is a historical sports moments.

59. Kaze - December 19th, 2007 at 4:07 am

#7 made me snort (and spit a little)
#10 they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but I’m not quite sure even a beholder would want to get to close to that…

60. mohsen - December 26th, 2007 at 10:24 pm

salam ye negah be in biandaz

61. davo - January 7th, 2008 at 8:26 pm

62. Mavoonie - January 8th, 2008 at 9:21 pm

wow number 10 is ten kinds of ugly haha

63. Alycia - January 18th, 2008 at 7:25 am

LMAO!! i loved number 5

64. Jon Boy - January 19th, 2008 at 4:45 pm

those pictures rock

65. Dylan - January 25th, 2008 at 7:54 pm

lol #28 & #5 are sooo funny =]

66. albert0 - January 27th, 2008 at 7:05 am

They all are! lol

67. Polly Odyssey - January 31st, 2008 at 5:53 pm

LMFAO @ 16

68. stormy617 - February 1st, 2008 at 11:59 pm

OMG How gross is 16. Thats just disgusting LOL.

These are funny as hell

69. fishing4monkeys - February 5th, 2008 at 4:00 am

hahaha all so funny…except 10 that’s just gross!

70. Bananas - February 12th, 2008 at 2:45 pm

I think its funny that there is so much controversy over this list. Its a bunch of funny pictures!!!

71. Llamee - February 15th, 2008 at 10:53 pm

Yeah, #16 is totally photoshopped. The tongue was put there, and Yao’s eyes could also be put into suspicion. Great list nonetheless!

72. samantha - February 23rd, 2008 at 7:29 pm

lmao i almost wet myself lol! hiliarious!!

73. ebrahim - March 17th, 2008 at 2:42 am

76. Splent - April 24th, 2008 at 1:42 pm

The RV one is definately photoshopped. Replace it with this one.

77. beerplease - April 25th, 2008 at 2:56 pm

87. Taija - May 28th, 2008 at 8:38 am

I’m trying not to watch these anymore.. I laughed so much with my sister yesterday. :p

88. romerozombie - June 18th, 2008 at 5:30 am

22 - Invisible motorbike

89. Vera Lynn - June 20th, 2008 at 7:58 am

Some of these are classic!! Really funny. But some look like real damage could have been done. Esp the hockey. After the time that one player got his neck sliced open…
