I was in a supermarket one day, I was walking along and i grabbed a shopping cart and I thought it was ours so I started walking away with it.I turned around and saw a old lady waddling behind me and my brother. My brother started running after me.I thought it was a joke so i started running as fast as I could to hide from him.My brother finally caught me and said." You know that cart belongs to that old lady" I returned the cart to the old lady I told her what happened and we both laughed.But it was so embarassing..

I was looking at a shelf of ornaments in a busy shop. The shelf happened to be on front of the counter, where a queue of people had lined up. I picked up one of the ornaments, which knocked one over and caused all the shelfs to come crashing down... Everyone looked at me and gave me and the shop assistant gave me the dirtiest look. Nothing broke, but it was seriously embarrassing!

There are a lot of embarrassing thing that already happened to me. One of those which i really cant forget was when i was in high school and it was late in the evening already. I was in a place where lot of public vehicle was being parked. As i was waiting for our vehicle to pass by, we used to be the first passenger to be standing there because if not you will end up not in a ride. So when the vehicle passed by people from my back just came rushing to be on the ride and i got the instinct to run and be with the crowd but before i run as fast as i can, i just slipped from the peel of fruit and stumble. And to my great embarrassment all of the people around me saw what happened and some of them are even laughing. That was really so embarrassing on my part.

For me it would have to be in middle school when my best friend (Steve M) pulled my chair out from under me just as I was stooping to sit down in it. OOPS! Instead of sitting down in the chair, my butt smacked right down on the floor! LOL, this was witnessed by darn near the whole class. My friend Steve M and I used to always pull pranksters on each other. Oh, and by the way, I had pulled Steve's chair out from under him first several weeks prior and he'd swore he'd "get me back" when I'd least expect it. By golly he surely did, LOL! I was so embarrassed. I think our friendship grew even stronger after that. If you're out there Steve M ... you know I still love ya!!! ;)

hello there! i had my most embarrasing moment back in college, during the enrollment on my first year, our faculty/dean required us to wear a skirt or slacks during interview and we all did, i wear skirt because i dont have slacks. on our way to the office for the interview, we passed by a corridor with a lot of old and new enrollees due to amazement i didnt notice that we were walking down a slope and so i tumbled down and the next thing that i noticed is that my skirt went up and shows my undergarment and that everyone's laughing at me. i was so embarassed, i hate what had happened!

Oh!! That inci9dent was indeed awful... I used to have one embarrassing moment which i will never forget. When I was at college and in fact I was returning from college. I was going to board a train which was too crowded..But somehow I managed to get in there but while getting down I slipped and fall down and collided roughly with a lady with a basket of tomatoes.. The lady didn't realized first and she also slipped and the tomatoes scattered all around the platform.. Hopefully the train was gone by that time.. It was so embarrassing.There were so many people all around.She was staring at me angrily.But the most funny part was one guy also fall down after stepping on those tomatoes.. And we all laughed after watching him..

Mine is really a lot more embarrassing. It was one of those days when I was wearing a dress as opposed to other days when I would just wear jeans. But that day I wore a dress, me and my niece headed to a restaurant but before making an order I decided to go to the rest room because I was feeling the call of nature. After doing my business, I went directly to the counter to make an order. Many tables were occupied at that time and so a lot of people saw this, but nobody dared call my attention to it. The hemline of the back part of my dress was up coz it got stuck to my underpants and so my whole back part was exposed! I was so embarrassed but I had to correct the error quick and fast and acted like nothing happened, but deep inside, I was melting. It was very embarrassing.
