These 17 Travel Photos Are the Definition of the World “Fail”

Bored Panda

Traveling is awesome, eye-opening, and humbling. Many people love doing it, and in this day and age, having amazing pictures to capture the moments and places you’ve waited a lifetime to lay eyes on is definitely part of the experience.

That said, I imagine these 18 people were pretty disappointed with how their epic photos turned out. But I mean. At least they still found a spot somewhere on the internet.

17. That’s a lot of fog to hide such a big mountain.

Not Mount Rushmore, but I woke up at 3am and hiked up Machu Picchu to be there at sunrise…
