We all know that a “selfie” is when someone takes a picture of themselves using a cell phone or camera. Usually, it’s a pretty cheesy type of photo that people upload to their Facebook or Instagram. But…

Sometimes it’s so epic and perfectly timed, you just have to share it. These travel selfies might be the most perfectly timed pictures in all of the world. And if not.. well they sure missed a good chance. Some are good, some are bad… but they’re all selfies. Check them out for yourself.

1.) First, it was cute. Then he got rabies.

2.) At least he took a picture of his own concussion.

If you could learn one thing from the gallery, it’s this: if you get pulled over, you probably shouldn’t be taking a selfie in front of the cop. Just saying. There’s a difference between having a memorable vacay.. versus a horrendous night in the penitentiary.

Share these perfectly timed photos with others. They deserve some inspiration for their most talked about trip yet. 😉
