Here is a list of pretty awesome winter sports fails. Some of the athletes are highly skilled and some of them are not. However, they’re all really easy to laugh at from the comfort of your desk chair, so take a look.

Why You Don't Ski Jump

Because that looks pretty painful

Failure to Launch

Usually they just worry about sticking the landing, but this poor woman needs to practice taking off.

Anyone Seen My Ski?

I’m not sure what’s going on here. It could be totally staged. But let’s assume it’s not, in which case this is pretty amazing.

Dedicated Journalist

Can you believe this intrepid reporter just got right up and continued her story? That’s what you call professionalism.

Face Grind

Now that slopestyle skiing has been added to the Olympics program (much to the dismay of Bob Costas), you can look forward to lots of this.

Well okay, probably not. The competitors are probably going to be a bit better than this guy.

Close Call

I guess this technically isn’t a fail since there was no collision, but I bet this chick sure felt like a failure at life when she soiled her pants.

Heads Up

Seriously, when you are ice skating, “heads up” isn’t just some meaningless thing people say, like “have a nice day” or “bless you.” You really should probably watch where you are going.

MMA Pairs Figure Skating

Don’t think male figure skaters are tough? This guy flings this girl in the air, takes an elbow to the nose, but stays on his feet to catch her and finish the routine. He’s like a hockey player in a leotard.

Amateur Freestyle Is Hilarious

I guess every great Olympic freestyle skier had to start somewhere, right?

She's on a Boat

Um, guys? Who left this boat here?

More Slopestyle Hilarity

Seriously, I’m starting to get worried about how much I enjoy watching people fall on skis.

Teamwork

I guess she was like, if I’m going down buddy, you’re going down.

Epic Hockey Choke

Despite the fact that they now play it outdoors in Los Angeles, hockey is still technically a winter sport. So we had to include Patrick Stefan’s whiffing on the open net. It’s an all-time NHL classic.

More Amateur Freestyle Skiing

See, it’s funny because his skis get stuck in the snow.

Semi-Pro Freestyle Skiing Fail

This guy thought he was finally ready for some really big air.

He was really wrong.

Lose Something?

I’m pretty sure this is fake. The dude rotates about eight times, and I’m pretty sure those skis never come down. It’s still funny, though.

Nighttime Skiing Fail

For future reference, fences are not meant to be jumped over on skis.

Why'd the skier cross the road?

To plow face-first into a snowbank.

Whoops

What can I say? Sometimes a goalie thinks the competition isn’t fair, so he swats the puck into his own goal to cut the other guys some slack.

Mind of Its Own

Wait for it…wait for it…wait for it…and…there.

You gotta love the possessed renegade ski.

Damn!

I don’t know who this is or what it’s from, but I assume this woman is deceased.

Nah, I’m kidding! I’m sure she’s totally fine. Maybe.

(Alright, I found the video. She for sure lived.)

Ill-Conceived

In retrospect, Jeffrey realized that having a car pull him along the snow-covered road on skis was probably not a good idea.

Downhill Grocery Cart Skiing Fail

Downhill grocery cart skiing is pretty amazing, but obviously it’s the sumo suits that make this one special.

Ski Jumping Fail

I guess it was especially windy that day? I have no idea. I mean, what could be so hard about shooting off a huge ramp on skis and then sailing a hundred feet through the air like a flying squirrel?

Collision Course

Wrong place, wrong time. Really, pretty much nothing right, here.

Total Non-Starter

Gross country skiing is really hard. I’ve done it. That being said, it’s not that hard.

Wardrobe Malfunction

In the immortal words of the great Sisqo, “Baaaaa-beeee-eeee, that thong, tha-tha-tha-thong!”

Equipment Failure

It looks like somebody forget to fasten the skis to the boots. That’s kind of a major oversight.

The Piledriver

In pairs figure skating it’s generally the men who lift the women. Because getting a piledriver on ice really, really hurts.
