What's the most embarrassing thing you've ever endured? It's probably pretty groan-inducing, but there's a special kind of cringe that we can only experience as we watch something deeply humiliating happen to someone else. Second-hand embarrassment might not sound bad, but we're quite sure that it can be fatal (doctors in the audience, please don't @ us).
Redditor u/A55A55IN100997 has decided to tempt fate by prompting people to share their worst second-hand embarrassment stories. People didn't hold back at all, so if you can't handle industrial doses of cringe, you won't make it long in this thread.
