Sooner or later, we all fail. As much as we’d rather not, it’s simply part of life. But if there’s one thing that makes it a little easier to bear, it’s knowing that it happens to everyone—even the best of us.
Below, we’ve rounded up some truly unfortunate fails that people decided to share online. Scroll down to take a look, and maybe spare a little sympathy for them while you’re at it. They could probably use the reminder that they’re not alone.

#28 Glass Dish Broke Seconds After I Took It Out Of The Oven While I Was Hovering Over It
Thankfully had made 2, one in a cast iron skillet and one in a glass pyrex dish. The cast iron one turned out amazing at least! I didn’t get injured aside from a small piece of hot glass hitting my stomach as I was wearing a crop top, which only stung but didn’t break the skin. I also spilled my entire pepper shaker 30 minutes later.

#34 Husband Lost His iPhone On Vacation. We Used Find My From My Phone And Tracked It To Its Last Location. Found It Run Over
He had it on him when we were out and about but didn’t notice it was missing until late at night. We were playing switch with the family back at the rental so he wasn’t thinking much about it. Decided to track its location and saw it was at the boardwalk we were at. Went back and looked for about 20 minutes in the parking lot. Found it smashed to bits! Had to go to the Verizon store the next day. At least we know what happened to it.

#40 Mouse Pad Fused Into My Desk
I've been using this 900 x 400 mouse pad for more than a couple of years, used to put it in the washing machine with a soft program to clean it. Then at some point it starting sticking to my desk and I left it as is for months… many beer spills and hot days later, it has almost completely sticked to the desk and has become hard, compact and crumbly once detached from the desk. I've scrapped what I could, putting quite some force into it. I've tried some boiling water and 90 degrees alcohol without good results. What remains on the pictures will not go as 'easily' as the rest. What would be the best way to proceed? Electric sander?
