Every now and then something absolutely ridiculous makes you laugh out loud and THIS is one of those things! Watch the GIFs below show us how horribly wrong a high five or a handshake can go! Then watch how the victims of this unnecessarily embarrassing situation deal with it! CRINGE!
The origin of the handshake was to show your empty fist to prove you had no weapons. Who would have know this simple gesture of peace could result in such disaster!
1. When three people go in for a high five, no one can win!
2. Surely in a crowd of that many people, no one would leave you hanging?
3. A game of rock, paper scissors or a fist bump gone wrong?
4. Left hanging all the way down the pitch
5. Wiping his idol’s germs all over his face with his fist. Now THAT’s a fan!
6. A gesture mistaken for a high five
7. The ONLY way to deal with it when your buddy leave you hanging
8. He doesn’t follow any rules, let along social ettiquet
9. Why high five your idol when you can go in for a bear hug? Not awkward at all!
10. Don’t give up!
11. Sometimes, you just gotta pretend you wanted to high five the air!
12. Close, but not close enough!
13. Watch carefully for the look in his eye when he realises it’s not going to happen!
14. Probably the most awkward of all… and they both know it!
15. Another fist bump/high five gone wrong but they’ve got the solution!
16. Left to deal with it alone
17. Go in for it clearly or don’t do it at all!
18. Ryan Seacrest what are you doing? This man is blind.
19. Another threeway gone horrible wrong.
