Fun times when people made mistakes online and got corrected

What mistake! The fun times when people made mistakes on the internet… and then corrected them in a VERY drastic way.

  • Internet users shared examples of cases where posters turned out to be wrong
  • Funny and nasty online posts have been collected in the Daily Bee gallery.
  • Among the messages is a report that people born in 2003 are 23 years old.
  • Another suggested that the world is 4,000 years old and was completely refuted.

We all make mistakes. It’s just part of being human, and sometimes it happens to the best of people.

But thankfully, many of our worst mistakes don’t stay online forever, unlike these hilarious gaffes made by people from all over the world that have been collected in the Daily Bee’s gallery.

And what’s more, we hope that most people won’t keep doubling down when they’re told they’re wrong.

Among the blunders in this gallery are people with some unproven beliefs, including that the world is only 4,000 years old and that we should “trust our cells, not science.”

Here FEMAIL presents some of the funniest bloopers ever posted online.

Good point: This savvy science geek was quick to point out that when someone suggested that it's better to trust cells than science, we only know about cells because of science.
