Sports Photos Taken At Just The Right Time

We experience enthusiasm that uplifts our spirits when we play sports or even just watch others play sports. It's a wonderful way to unwind after a difficult workday. When watching or taking part in sporting events or activities, many people feel a sense of community.

Most athletes are renowned for giving everything they have every time they compete. Who wants to lose? We watch them play ferociously in order to win. But even after receiving extensive training, individuals will inevitably make mistakes because they are still only human. For your amusement, we've found some of the best sports photos ever taken.

Mom played baseball in the past, right?

At a baseball game, everyone hopes to catch the ball and bring it home as their prize. The man on the right is obviously pursuing his aspirations, but he is unaware that the mother there is a serious person.

Who said you couldn't make a great catch while holding a baby with your other hand? But to be quite honest, I can't help but consider how dangerous this might be for a newborn. The ball was hers to keep, and she also took a fantastic picture!

I had no idea that this was humanly possible.

Skating on an ice rink while wearing bladed shoes seems like the recipe for danger. Professional ice skaters, however, like pushing the envelope and warping our impression of reality. I didn't realize that humans could bend in this fashion until I saw this picture.

She sways and spins all the time with such ease and nonchalance. It's clear how incredibly good and adaptable ice skaters are from the excellent shot!

Taste Of Remorse

This athlete is undoubtedly regretting his choice to put his tongue out at that particular moment. We have to admit that it is a little odd that he even pushed his tongue out.

Their respective facial expressions suggest that neither of them is actually enjoying what is taking place. Mint breath, anyone?

Is this a recent fashion? Swan Position

One of the first things we noticed when we looked at the picture was the spherical red thing in the middle of this dancer's arms. Our original assumption was that this gymnast had been struck in the face by a ball, but following closer study, we discovered that she was probably pulling a chin stunt.

We sincerely hope she accomplished whatever amazing human movement feat she was aiming for, but we can't help but wonder what it was. Is that a swan pose? Or is it just a temporary position? It appears agonizing. What happened to her head?

Please Like His Shampoo Ad

Ever ponder why athletes, like this hockey player, need their water bottles to hydrate themselves? It's not a water ritual or anything of the sort. It's for cooling off. Who wouldn't feel hot after playing or working out so hard?

But, every time these players are photographed hydrating themselves in this manner, a shampoo commercial is immediately created. When his long hair swishes back so nicely, this one player really hits the mark. Even if he was able to calm down, we can picture some audience members becoming rather heated.

Hard contact with the baseball may be harmful as well as impressive.

Go no further if you've ever wondered how quickly batters can hit the baseball. Giancarlo Santon, who struck the ball at an astounding 123.9 mph, actually holds the record. He is merely one of numerous batters who have succeeded in driving the ball into triple digits over the years, and it doesn't appear that he will be the last.

In fact, even the batters themselves are unaware of their own power. Take this person. He believed he was going to make an outstanding shot, but instead he whacked the ball so hard that the bat cracked. What's worst? Someone witnessed the moment the rest of the bat circled his head and arrived at his face.

A Touch of Bittersweet

Although he might have made a game-changing statement, he forgot about the gravitational reality that what goes up must fall down. The ball landing back down on his face at this pretty embarrassing moment was captured by the camera.

I can only hope that the points he gained by creating this basket were worthwhile considering the blow to the face he received and the unattractive picture that will always be on the internet. But let's face it, he probably couldn't have given a damn and just kept playing.
