Incredibly Timed Sports Photos
Sports are all about special moments. People are invested in the moments, and those who weren’t lucky enough to get a front row seat still share the event as the pictures circulate online around the world for everyone to enjoy.
Sports stars spend their entire lives training to be at the top, and every moment matters to them. However, no one’s perfect. Thankfully, there are photographers present at nearly every sporting event in the world. That means moments like these perfectly timed sports photos are never missed.
A Non-Contact Sport
Some people play cricket because it is a pretty relaxed sport. This batter seems to have forgotten what sport they are playing and instead took out their opponent with a lunging tackle.
Coming Up For Air
This wrestler has been flattened to the mat by their opponent, but they aren’t down for the count just yet. Not only have they come up for air, but they also ended up wearing their opponent like a hat.
Where’s The Sniper?
There doesn’t seem to be much wrong with this picture at first glance, but a search of the background tells a different story. With no action going on nearby, this guy has gone down in dramatic fashion as though he’s been shot.
A True Hero
They say not all heroes wear capes and this guy has proven to be this young boy’s savior thanks to a well placed arm. This guy stepped up to the plate and saved this young child from serious damage.
Emoji Olympics
This guy throwing the shot put seems to be doing his best impression of an emoji as he tried to get as much power in his throw as possible.
Fireworks
There are typically fireworks on the football field as rival teams clash. This player couldn’t hold it in any longer, and he just had to let things go.
Fierce Rivalry
Sport would be nothing without the rivalries that come from it. This was taken during the Manchester Derby, played between two of soccer’s biggest rivals, Manchester City and Manchester United.
Fighting The Invisible Man
One thing that draws many hockey fans to the sport is the fighting that breaks out between players. The game itself is non-stop action, but throw in a few fist fights, and you’ve got yourself a sport!
This. Is. Football.
Move over Sparta – This. Is. Football! This Pittsburgh Steelers player is really putting the foot in football by giving the boot to this onrushing defender.
Looking To The Future
Have you ever felt like you could see into the future? This volleyball player is staring right at her life yet to come, and it’s coming faster than she might have hoped.
Fully Committed
If you really want an edge over your opponents in sport, you have to want it more than them and fight for everything. For Dennis Rodman, his sacrifice was going to be the skin on his knees and elbows.
What Are You Hiding?
These two soccer rivals were battling for the ball and the player on the red team was literally putting his body on the line, no matter the consequences.
A Shot To Remember
The timing of this photograph could not have been any better as it perfectly captures this baseball batter striking the ball at the exact moment of impact. We can see just how much effort and force goes into hitting the perfect shot.
Pixie Diving Team
The way gravity is contorting this diver’s face makes her look like she is from some kind of fantasy world. This picture definitely deserves some kind of medal for its impeccable timing.
Setting An Example
Fathers usually try to set good examples to their children no matter how old they are. This father is in total control of the situation, casually catching a baseball one-handed while feeding his infant child with the other.
Enchanting
Hockey can be a magical sport. Not wanting to let the players grab all of the attention, this referee is getting in on the action.
Terrifying
Somehow, this basketball player seems surprised to find himself in the middle of an NBA game in front of thousands of people. He was so surprised he freaked out and panicked at the sight of the ball.
This Is Going To Hurt
There are some moments in life where you can see something coming, but you know you’ve not got enough time to react. Just tell yourself “This is going to hurt,” and just accept that fact you’ve got some pain headed your way.
Becoming One With The Water
This swimmer has spent so much time in the wet stuff that they appear to have become liquid themselves. The photograph was taken just before they broke the seal of the water in the pool.
Isn’t That Cheating?
This swim team has become so synchronized they look to have become one whole person. This looks like some Olympic team has managed to disguise a fish by dressing it up as a synchronized swimmer.
A Light Snack
If you play a sport with a ball, one of the first things you are taught as a child is to always make sure you keep your eye on it. This table tennis player has lost his way slightly and seems a little distracted by something.
Rough Justice
The Tour de France is one of the most famous bicycle races in the world, and it brings thousands of fans to the streets of the host country. Often the riders can get heckled by those fans.
V
The Olympic symbol is famously five colored rings that represent the five continents of the world. In 2012 those five turned to six when the moon decided to join the party in London.
Hockey Pirate
This hockey player was doing his best impression of a pirate while out on the ice. He’s doing pretty well for someone who just took a hockey puck to the eyeball.
The Wrong Ball
This player gets an unexpected kick and his facial expression tells it all!
To The Invisible Boatmobile
This Olympic long jumper looks like he’s floating in space or riding along in an imaginary boat.
Popping Out To Say “Hello”
From this angle, it looks as though the man is all on his own out on the ice, but there seems to be a woman popping out of his rear end. She is only popping out to say “hello” though.
Into The Abyss
This guy looks to be contemplating the meaning of life while he casually wake-boards across the surface of the water. The water is so still he even has time to check his reflection in the mirror-like lake.
The Calm Before The Storm
These football players seem to think pretty highly of their coach as they affectionately shower him in Gatorade.
Strike A Pose
Just because football is a high-paced game when the ball is in play doesn’t mean there isn’t time for striking a pose. This guy took a moment to savor the small victory, posing in glory.
Gotcha
Football is a physical game, and the defense’s job is to take down the offense by any means necessary. This defending player has found a new way to stop his opponents.
The King Of Referees
On your knees, peasants! All bow before the one and only King Referee. This guy isn’t even interested in what his colleagues have to say because he has no peers and the talk of commoners is beneath him.
Picking Your Brain
Before he stepped out onto the court, this player’s coach told him to stop their opposition scoring “at all costs.” Those words were ringing in his ears, and he would make sure he stopped anyone dunking – no matter what.
Swan Diving Matador
People are opposed to bullfighting as it forces an animal into a situation it didn’t ask to be in. Despite opposition, there is often one person in the middle of the chaos who stands out: the matador.
He Should Play In Goal
This is Brazilian soccer star seems to have taken up the wrong position. Soccer stars are known for their mesmerizing skills with their feet, but this player has a neat trick that’s wasted out on the pitch.
