Timing Is Everything: 40 Perfectly-Timed Photos That Will Blow Your Mind
Passionately Unbothered
When we are passionate about something, it easily reflects itself in the way we experience and live our life. Take these girls, for example; they were so engrossed in the moment that they didn’t even care what anyone else was thinking. As hilarious as their expressions can be, it is even better as it influences other people’s moods too.
More than the loud cheers and support, cheerleaders also bring the magic of enthusiasm and motivation that players need during a game. They also convey their high spirits to the audience, which creates an environment of moral support that players need. Just imagine a match without horns, chants, and encouraging shouts.
Soccer Perils
There’s no doubt football is a rough sport; there’s just a lot that can happen on the field. This photo made it to one of the most unmatched scenes in the sport because have you seen anything like a foul move that looked like they were praising each other? This was a scene during a Cleveland Browns-Pittsburgh Steelers game.
Everyone was shocked when Antonio Brown landed a boot on Spencer Lanning’s head. In clearer footage, it showed that Brown had delivered a flying kick to Lanning, who was trying to make a tackle. The referee quickly stopped the commotion, and the incident immediately began trending on social media platforms.
Rising Temperature
The year this picture was taken is still a mystery, with some claiming it happened on 1985 and others in 1986. Either way, the photo tells it all: never provoke a footballer. The man throwing the punch is Matt Millen, a linebacker known for his temperament while playing.
After the divisional-round playoff match between the Raiders and Patriots, an argument arose between the two parties. When verbal trash talking escalated, Millen punched the Patriots manager, Pat Sullivan. The scenario made its round on the global Internet scene. Although Millen extended remorse, the damage was done, and it went on as a memorable event in football.
Reaching for the Sky
Cheerleading is not for everyone, and this photo shows some of the reasons why. Not all folks like being tossed in the air, not everyone’s physique is built for the activity, and we can get many surprising photos during the show, just like this one.
We cannot deny that they are doing their best to perform the stunts, yet we also can’t blame them for falling short. Maybe team building would be of great help, as it is one of the sport’s most essential values. Omni Cheer Blog explains that the ability to work with other people is a critical factor in making a cheerleading experience successful.
Didn’t Sign Up for This
When they signed up for the cheerleading squad, these girls knew what they were getting into. It just happened that they weren’t prepared for the sudden views, and instead of flashing their usual infectious and bright smiles, their awkward expressions were a hilarious substitute.
Cheerleaders prioritize maintaining a positive vibe when there’s a competition, game night, or any event. They are responsible for keeping the mood upbeat, and almost all organizations teach some routines. One of which is practicing how you would say “A,” “E,” or “I” aloud and combining it with giggles. Even when they’re resting their cheeks, a resting smiling face should still be visible.
Taking the Job to the Heart
As mentioned earlier, cheerleaders are responsible for keeping the hype up from beginning to finish. They are supposed to boost the players’ and audience’s mood and energy. This girl understood the assignment but faced the ultimate test when a player dragged her inside the field for a brief moment.
It all happened so quickly when Dallas Cowboys cheerleader Melissa Kellerman was dragged to the ground after Jason Witten was forced out of bounds by the opponent. Kellerman was surprised, but we commend her ability to keep the positive spirit alive by taking it all in stride. She stood up and continued cheering as if nothing had happened.
Pausing Mid-Air
It’s easy to spread hilarious photos of athletes while they’re in the very spirit of executing their sport, considering cameras are becoming increasingly better with technology. This Olympics diver’s photo is a great example. He is a handsome young man in perfect shape for an athlete’s life.
It just happened that the photographer snapped the shot at the exact moment as the swimmer was hurtling through the air mid-dive. Putting the perfectly timed photo aside, we want to commend this diver for making it to the championships. Olympics involves a lot of jumping, twisting, and turning, and it takes practice and courage to perform these moves graciously.
A Mermaid Intern
One glance and this photo could pass off as one of the most convincing evidence that mermaids might exist. Much to our disappointment, this is not some magical footage but an actual picture of two different women during a synchronized swimming competition. Their routines were commendable, but this photographer’s epic skills stood out, making them look like fairy-tale creatures.
Perhaps this served as an additional point, though, as it captured the attention of many Internet users claiming they did great in the contest. In fact, synchronized swimming is considered an underrated yet challenging sport. Olympic synchronized swimmers even train for eight hours a day to perfect a move.
We Make the Rules
Almost every cheerleading team wears spandex t-shirts and mini skirts because these styles help them move better and do stunts easier. Yet, these girls are among those who love experimentation and defying the norms by wearing unusual party dresses while cheering.
Maybe they are doing it for more attention and points. Either way, there’s no written law to this, as long as they are able to perform their moves well and not exploit their physical features. Despite that, most American school squads still prefer the athletic and sleeveless top. Turtle neck bodysuits, body-hugging onesies, or leotard-like designs are also common trends.

Shoal Cheerleaders
This girl’s passion is something else, as she was willing to bring her cheerleading skills even during a holiday trip to the beach. Perhaps she wanted to gather more passionate sports fans under the sea. With her exceptional jumping skills, there’s no doubt she can attract a crowd of amazed spectators anywhere, anytime.
We’d also like to bet that this photo took a few tries before getting this perfect shot. Still, getting to warm up like that must’ve aided in making higher leaps. As Hoops King pointed out, stretching our legs increases flexibility and enhances a greater range of motion. It also loosens yet strengthens our muscles over time.
Sometimes Stardom Isn’t It
Sometimes stardom is not everything, and moments like this make us grateful for maintaining a more private life than superstars. Nevertheless, this also reminds us that our idols are humans, just like us, and they go through similar daily struggles, such as the urge to pick our noses in public.
Still, even if there will be hundreds of perfectly-timed and hilarious photos of LeBron James, his legacy is what we will remember. There’s none other than “King James,” who is widely recognized as one of the greatest players of all time. He is the first player in NBA history to have over 10,000 career points, rebounds, and assists.
Float ‘Em Away
Here is more proof that magic happens in photography, as long as one has the right equipment, expertise, and subject. These stunning women are none other than arguably the most famous group in the National Football League, the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. They nailed this much-awaited routine with their gorgeous wind-blown locks and pristine uniforms.
The Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders are widely deemed the NFL’s most prestigious and heavily marketed squad. The Dallas Morning News reported that their website is full of inspirational cheerleading photos and blogs. The squad has also been a part of fan meetings, youth programs, store openings, and trade shows.
The Halloween Hoorah
The Minnesota Vikings Cheerleaders are among the highest paid cheerleaders in 2020, as noted by Total Sportek. Known for their colorful and various designs of costumes, everyone was delighted when they were once allowed to ditch their usual attire and join the Halloween trend!
Without hesitation, the ladies pulled off their favorite characters and geared up while still making sure they were able to perform well. They kept the space between their neck and stomach bare to ensure more flexibility. We can imagine the audience and photographers’ enjoyment because it’s not every day you witness fictional characters like Jasmine from Aladdin perform in perfect sync while onstage.
You Okay, Mate?
Football is a sport where players work their absolute best and do whatever it takes to score the goal and bring home the bacon. Yet, doing this is not without risk and ruthless moves. After all, statistics show that football has the highest injury rate compared to any other American sport.
Just take a look at these two players, who are seconds away from hitting the ground. We earnestly hope both of them had a safe and sound time after this match. According to the UR Medicine website, football players’ most common types of ailments on the pitch include concussions, overuse, heat, and knee injuries.
