What is the work of a billboard? To grab the attention of the viewers with catchy lines and great picturisation. Something that would make you stop for few seconds and stare.
But sometimes certain billboards might make you stop a little bit more and stare. You may even burst out into laughter! Not that the brand did intentionally but wrong placements of certain billboards can be literally sarcastic.
Let us have a look at some of such epic failures
1. Heart Problems For $3
How about a billboard ad making you aware about heart disease and the next thing you see just beside is a billboard from Burger King giving you the cause? Who would trade for a heart problem at $3? Funny! Isn’t it? Have a look yourself!
Disease And Cause
2. Peace Out
Jesus words of wisdom has been taken too seriously by this beer brand. Bud Light will indeed give you rest and peace. Is that the truth?
Jesus, Really?
3. Nestle Licking
Nestle wouldn’t even imagine about this! Licking a dumpster is not a good choice and neither is yummy.
The Dumpster Fail
4. You Know Nothing McDonald!
Yet another fail! How to deal with childhood obesity? Ask McDonald!
I Am Lovin’ It
5. Kingfisher And Jet Airways – Helping Hands
Both these rivals in the business seems to settle things up in these billboards. Kingfisher claims that they made them change and Jet Airways agrees to the fact. No Fight! No Discussions!
Runway Problem
6. Thirst For what?
What kinda thirst are you dreaming of? Something like this? A giant one! Nothing could be more hilarious than this one.
Giant Thirst
7. Prepare To Die
A walking dead billboard just next to a Funeral Home. Can anything be worse?
Hilarious
8. Crashed
This Turkish Airline ad by the side of an elevator is an epic failure. Have a look yourself!
Going Down
9. Fun In The Graveyard
A church billboard to come and join and promising it would be fun by the side of a graveyard is not pleasing at all.
No Thanks!
10. Sugar Baby
On one hand it says you not to have soft drinks as it’s equivalent to having 12 packs of sugar and on the other they say ‘bigger the better’ and giving discounts for soft drinks. I mean , who won’t be confused!
Tough Decisions
11. What’s In An Egg?
When you are made aware of the fact in a billboard that embryos are babies, just then another one by McDonald’s is ready to confuse your mind showing an egg actually dreams to be a burger!
What!!
12. Happy Pregnant day
Two billboards compliment each other! Have a look yourself what McDonald’s has to offer on ones pregnant news.
Are You Lovin’ It?
13. Not Worse
This one is one of the epic failures on making! What is from the front is totally different from the back. Watch out!
Back Up!
14. Delicate And Messy
Now what could be worse? This billboard is the perfect example how placements can go wrong!
Fabulous?
15. Oops!
Are you sure where your eyes are fixed upon? The baptist church wants you to fix your eye and focus on Jesus but the billboard above have other plans!
