Today, I fell in a hole in my back yard and got stuck. My mother called the fire department. They all stood around laughing and taking pictures before they helped me. FML

Today, I fell into a hole. And by hole, I mean a sewer. FML

Today, I fell down the stairs. Lying on my back in extreme pain, I called my mom for help. When she came over, she said I looked like a dead bug, took a picture and posted it on Facebook. FML

Today, I was at a family dinner, which had gone into meltdown after my aunt said something sarcastic about my mother's drinking. I went out for some fresh air and stumbled about in the dark, unaware of the fact that a pool was being dug. I fell into the huge hole and lost a shoe. FML

Today, I went to a river near my house. They have several swing ropes that you grab and then jump into the river. As I was about to let go of the rope, my leg got tangled and I was held underwater. My mom watched and laughed for a while before she came to help me. FML

Stuck

Today, I got stuck in a revolving door and had to be rescued by the fire department after about 30 minutes of walking in circles with no open exit. At least they got a good laugh out of it. FML

Need help

Today, I went to the cemetery to visit a friend. As I was looking for his burial plot, I fell into a dug out grave and had to call my partner to come help me get out. FML

Today, I fell down a flight of stairs. The guy behind me was kind enough to ask if I was okay. He then called his friends over so they could laugh at me. FML

Use your powers wisely

Today, I jokingly told my mother to "go fall down a hole" during a mock argument we always have. Not even 10 minutes later, our basement stairs gave out. When I said that, I didn't want her to break both her arms or to actually fall into a gaping hole. FML

Today, I had to poop, but as I sat down, it wouldn't come out. After about 10 minutes I realized I needed help. The only help I could get was my mother, who couldn't stop laughing at the sweat and faces I made. I still hurt. FML

You can't explain that

Today, I was explaining a complex work issue to my team. I moved my chair back so I could see them all. The leg of my chair went into a hole in the floor, causing it to fall over and me with it. I tried to finish explaining but everyone was laughing so hard they couldn't hear. Then they realized I couldn't get up. FML

So you lay there and let the jackasses take pics but once you get rescued kick their asses and throw their cameras into the hole. Problem solved!

They always wanted a picture of a Hole in One. How did you fall into the hole, 'hole?

How deep was the hole to the point where you get stuck and have to call the fire department to get you out? If it's THAT deep of a hole and you didn't know about it, YDI

I thought the same thing. YDI OP. There was a hole so big that you got trapped in it. You'd have to be a moron not to see it. The reason they stood around laughing and taking pictures is because they had a good laugh trying to figure out how someone could be so dumb to not see it.

I have to call fake. If there was a hole in your yard that big, you should know about it. Also, the fire department wouldn't stand around "laughing and taking pictures". Their professionals. Hopefully.

Get drunk while on duty? They should be fired but I guess they need some people there. But I agree, firefighters are just people so laughing at something funny isn't that bad if the situation isn't dramatic but taking pictures of it? That's highly unprofessional! I do wonder how the OP got stuck in the hole in the first place? Was your leg stuck or your body? You should have seen the hole if it was big enough to fit your body in it
